Missing the Point

So
Everybody knows
But no one will tell you
The truth is far too close
Still everybody knows
I did what I could do
And still it wasn't enough
It's never enough for you
I'm going down, but I'll be coming back for you
Watch me now as I get old
I'm gonna lose my mind
I'm running out of time
And in the end I just can't shake this feeling that I'm missing the point
You said you wanted to go
But where is home
Where is home for you?
Lately, all the time, a dream that just won't go
Don't leave me dreaming
I'm going down; I'm not coming back
But I'll always be your eyes
Always on your side
I'm gonna lose my mind
I'm running out of time
And in the end I just can't shake this feeling that it's breaking my heart

Way back, back when
I was, your man
Take another trip inside, stay a little for the ride
I'm in his head
It's so vacant
Slowly step inside, watch it climb
It's all I need
One shot, home free
Intensity, come back to me
And there I was, biding my time
Stalking the moon by the mountainside
Sleep
The moon is out tonight
Eroding, glowing mountainside
We'll be in beds of lime
Don't lose yourself tonight
It's only bentonite

Short of breath
Saving up all your breath
But who's looking at you in the mirror when it's down to sudden death?
Waking up just in time
Then stepping back into your mind
Why pretend that you can be useful when you can sit back like it's some kind of crime?
Falling apart, you're
Falling apart
But when there's someone at the end of the street, that's when you find a new place to start
It's too old
Your soul is sold
Leave it all
Move uncontrolled
Turn me back down and I'll go home
Just give me a reason to go home
A white room with a two-inch display
Nothing there but nothing done today
And right as you're starting towards it you hear a sound
And he's waiting at the door
And he says it's time to go
And you reluctantly oblige
But where's it gonna be tonight: way out in space or in the pines?
Moving around, then
Falling back down
What do you do when you suddenly find your inner strength is something to hide
It's too old
Your soul is sold
Leave it all
Move uncontrolled
Let me back down and I'll go home
As soon as I get out of this chokehold

It's much, much harder to exist
It's hard to escape it
Yet quite easy to see
Small, enclosed discussions
Left so much to be touched
Time goes by, you don't even notice
You watch your week pass one day at a time
Everybody wants their way
But the train still gets delayed
And there's still twelve blocks to go
Words that have no meaning
A song without a note
The things I think I said but just can't remember
They say that I'm too young to have any regrets
Joke's on them, 'cause I do
Sidewalk smile, with teeth like a lotus
And everyone walks past like they've seen it before
All I wanted was my space, I got it on a silver plate
Just stay in your lane, be on your way
Sunshine showers into night
But I know
You'll rise
You'll rise
Time slips by, you don't even notice
Sand goes through, one grain at a time
You can see it on my face that I've got something to say
But let's forget it and just say goodnight

My heart's on my sleeve, for once
Got nothing to hide
I've loved you for so long
I just can't get you off my mind
Making love in the daylight
Making love under starlit skies
When I dream, it's of you and I in two
But right now there's just one thing on my mind
Let me squeem, oh let me squeem
Please let me squeem today
Let me squeem, oh let me squeem
Show me your squeemy ways
Sleepy days and sleepless nights are all that I have known
Oh won't you please let me squeem before it's time to go?
When the world all comes crashing down
I'll be right by your side, for once
I will sing it from the mountaintops
You will never be my number two
Well, my heart's on my sleeve, for once
I've got nothing to hide
And when we squeem it feels like only yesterday
I got too high and my mom picked me up
Let me squeem, oh let me squeem
Please let me squeem today
Let me squeem, oh let me squeem
No sooner than today
Weepy days and sleepless nights are all that I have known
Oh won't you please let me squeem before it's time to go?
Let me squeem, oh let me squeem
Please let me squeem today
Let me squeem, oh let me squeem
Show me your squeemy ways
Sleepy days and sleepless nights are all that I have known
Oh won't you please let me squeem...
...and now it's time to go!
