DEAD SET

 

Every day’s a mishmash

Of death, dumb and happiness

Like, how far could it go

You want the same thing

Right, I want the same thing

I’ll meet you in the middle

No, man, no, no, no

I’ve got no time

Left myself five to get there

And these people never let me

I know they know that I’ll do anything I can

Strangers now full of rage

 

Man, I should let it slide

When I’m too pent up on the inside

Man, I should let it all go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go

When I’m dead set on what it is that I think

And what it is that I know

 

Every day is much the same

A little pleasure, lot of pain

Busy body baggers buzzing ‘round my brain

Ain’t it strange to have a real fascination with

A merry-go-round turned to a race and it’s

A day too late, a dollar too short, a step too soon

Pick a horse, I’ll race you to the moon

Loser gets the boot

And then the winner gets the prize

Wait, we’re on a merry-go-round, right

 

I should let it slide

When I get too pent up on the inside

Man, I should let it all go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go

When I’m dead set on what it is that I think

And what it is that I know

 

Something takes control

Fools you that you’re in it

Choose your battles wisely

For it’ll say that you must win it

Do you want some calm

Or do you want some conflict

You can choose what you want but be

Choose what you want but be

Choose what you want but be honest

 

You should let it slide

When you’re too pent up on the inside

Man, you should let it all go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go

When you’re dead set on what it is that you think

And what it is that you know

 

And every day is plotting, scheming

Don’t you ever get to taste the fruit

Of all your endless day dreaming

How can you expect to get ahead

When the future is a fact under your forehead

You don’t know what you know

Hey, but it’s all the same

It has a name and it bears repeating

Observe your mind

And stop your thinking

 

Man, you should let it slide

When you get too pent up on the inside

Man, you should let it all go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go

When you’re dead set on what it is that you think

And what it is that you know
