On Standing Still Lyrics by Addie Pray

Words

2012

Settle down, sleep will find you soon
Dance around your disappearing wounds
Crawl into the headspace that you create
Recklessly abandon a heart so full of hate
And when you get there, is it any clearer?
Yeah, when you get there you’re not any nearer
And you’re so tough, you don’t even like yourself
Thriving off of pain caused by someone else
Fatalistic warnings from your bad dreams
Dauntless apprehension from your father’s genes
And when you get there, is it any clearer?
Yeah, when you get there you’re not any nearer
And you’re so funny, that nobody laughs
Ripping at the seams now they’re all staring at
That you can’t seem to dismiss from your angry heart
Pressed between the longings when it falls apart
And when you get there, is it any clearer?
Yeah, when you get there you’re not any nearer
And you’re so sad, you can’t even fix yourself
You’re always wishing you were somewhere else
And you’re so clumsy, that not even you can see
You’re delusionally prone to idealize the scene
And when you get there, is it any clearer?
Yeah, when you get there you’re not any nearer
