beats per minute its hard to keep up
when my hearts racing but my body's stuck
strapped to the tracks and patiently waiting for
this train of thought to finally run me down
trains take us places that we all call home
with plenty of space and miles to roam
but everywhere else it all feels the same
with tinier cages and boat loads of pain
it's easy to see a tigers rage
when it's trapped inside a a tiny cage
it's easy to shoot an animal dead
than feeling it's pain in empathy
everywhere else it all feels the same
with tinier cages and boat loads of pain
strapped to the tracks and patiently waiting
for this train of thought to finally run me
down

in one short year from now i want to have more fun
i want to take more pictures, i want to see someone
i want to see new places, but i have no money
i guess i'll bust my ass so that in three years from now
in three short years from now I'll have a steady job
and go home to that someone because they're waiting for me
I wanna have more friends, i wanna have more friends
and i dont want it to end
in five long years from now i dont know where i'm going
it's getting so much harder, it could get so much worse
it could get so much worse
i'm gonna show the way how my mind works
it's full of gears, how'd i get here
everything's changing and
I don't think I'll have the time
but i'll make it worth it if
in one short year from now i want to have more fun
i want to feel like i'm alive, I wanna take more photos
i want to see new places I guess i'll bust my ass
I'll find a way to make it worth it
i wanna rise with the tide

it's easy to blame it all on mercury
cause her only defense is the stars
they'll tell her she's right on track
but she's running backwards
circling all around the sun
burning her skin and killing us softly
she's blinded by this light in her eyes
so she just can't see it yet
she controls communications
she tears words apart
switching around all our implications
she doesn't mean to
she raising up our expectations
just to rip em to shreds
sending out these bad vibrations
she just can't see it yet
she ruins our words, running back words, backwards around the sun
even though she doesn't mean
let's blame it all on, blame it all on, blame it on mercury
even though she doesn't mean to
cause she's in retrograde
