perception by yesterday Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Got a different perception of the things we like
I need a renewed perspective for my fuckin' life
I forgot to mention my soul's been in shambles
I trip over the pieces I recover
Scattered and franticly
Attempting rearrangements
Of the broken glass shards on the floor
Anyone that's had my heart in hand
Has thrown it away
Peelin' off my skin just to find
I had too much to hide
I guess I'm too much to handle
My knees buried in the sand
Looking out to the coast line
Just hoping to find
A little piece of mind
That I lost some time ago
I think it's time for me to go
Back to a familiar place
All alone in my room
It's such a desolate space
Too long has gone by
Since we jumped off the train
Thought we held hand in hand
But when I landed on the ground
I was alone again
Alone again
[Verse 2]
Got a different perception of the things we like
I need a renewed perspective for my fucking life
I forgot to mention, my souls been in shambles
I trip over the pieces I recover
But it's ok
Don't you worry about a thing
My sheets are shelter that could never be compromised
The rope that's hanging from the ceiling stares me right in my eyes
I greet the pressure with open arms and empty hands
I light my last cigarette, then I'll take a few more steps
Down the bottle of liquor that seems soaken in sweat
And all the things in my life that I seem to regret
You're just another memory that I'm soon to forget
Got a different perception of the things we like
I need a renewed perspective for my fuckin' life
I forgot to mention my soul's been in shambles
I trip over the pieces I recover
Scattered and franticly
Attempting rearrangements
Of the broken glass shards on the floor
Anyone that's had my heart in hand
Has thrown it away
Peelin' off my skin just to find
I had too much to hide
I guess I'm too much to handle
My knees buried in the sand
Looking out to the coast line
Just hoping to find
A little piece of mind
That I lost some time ago
I think it's time for me to go
Back to a familiar place
All alone in my room
It's such a desolate space
Too long has gone by
Since we jumped off the train
Thought we held hand in hand
But when I landed on the ground
I was alone again
Alone again
[Verse 2]
Got a different perception of the things we like
I need a renewed perspective for my fucking life
I forgot to mention, my souls been in shambles
I trip over the pieces I recover
But it's ok
Don't you worry about a thing
My sheets are shelter that could never be compromised
The rope that's hanging from the ceiling stares me right in my eyes
I greet the pressure with open arms and empty hands
I light my last cigarette, then I'll take a few more steps
Down the bottle of liquor that seems soaken in sweat
And all the things in my life that I seem to regret
You're just another memory that I'm soon to forget
