Cex - Cex At Arms Length lyrics
rate mecaught in a dream<br />
but never come home<br />
always around the corner<br />
another corner waits<br />
caught in...<br />
<br />
you could say i'm an avante-gard composer<br />
cuz there aren't any notes in a single one of my note books<br />
as soon as i find a way to play these reams of sheet music<br />
with an instrument that's new and uses a scale of crossed out words<br />
regret and embarresment instead of guitar chords<br />
and i'm sure it's just a matter of seconds<br />
before i'm rich on MTV, pack th place with kids<br />
to sing my songs with, and bite their tounges along with me<br />
<br />
i never got a messege in a dream<br />
i've come back but never come home<br />
always around the corner<br />
another corner waits<br />
caught in...<br />
<br />
this was supposed to be a release<br />
and now it's quiete easily the most stressful piece of my existence<br />
my trip overseas, i was scared shitless<br />
the second time only felt an overpowering indifference<br />
now my third is iminent, and i just feel sick<br />
i'm the guy in the doctor's office<br />
"doctor, it hurts when i do this"<br />
you weigh less than your own shaddow<br />
i was barely a stick to start with<br />
now i'm outdone by the sum<br />
of all the splinters i've discarded<br />
<br />
and none of my friends know who i am, it's our arrangement<br />
i kept cex at arm's length to try and keep the real ryan safe<br />
for every dodgeball thrown, every night with cameras rolling<br />
there's bright lines drawn around all of the shit we leave unspoken<br />
my confessions could fill stadiums, but still<br />
my heart's buried under baltimore, and i think i've fogotten where<br />
i could tear up the city trying find it but knowing myself<br />
i'd just probably lie in the cavity with straw and disappear<br />
<br />
i never got a messege in dreams<br />
i've come back but never come home<br />
always, arond the corner another corner waits<br />
caught in perpetual low
