Sweet Shop by Tapestry Lyrics

My brain is growing, looks like a Venetian
I want to eat through it and see what’s beneath
All these layers are sticky and making me anxious
If I could I would shed them to find something delicious
Now I’m on an airplane counting my breaths
Can we get to the airport as quick as we can?
Cause I’m stuck to this leather where I accepted death
Oh, a familiar feeling, the only I have left
Seems I’ve misplaced my keys and can’t get back in
And I’ve forgotten my belongings, but I doubt they still fit
Growing tired of growing, now this cookie’s too big
Petrified of it crumbling and putting me to bed
But where is my helmet?
And where is the hail?
Or a meteor shower?
Just something to grab
Journeyed deep in the forest
But my jelly bean trail is decaying with time
Old memories gone stale
And the tickin' tock time of my second-filled life
Makes me jealous of myself in a simpler time
Still my secrets are throbbing
In myself I confide
Soaks my clothes in a truth that I just cannot hide anymore
I lost my footing as you struggled to climb
Still wandering through the forest
Distracted by the sights
Witnessing a new system and feelings so precise
Still I’m searching for candy
Blue raspberry smiles
Do you underestimate the power of time?
And attribute your “why’s” to the ghostly divine?
Well if I were to tell you the thoughts in my mind
Would you just get frightened?
Are these thoughts just mine?
