Deferred Lyrics by Midfield

Happy Thoughts

2018

So you're back at it again
I see that look on your face
Every time
Yet your so blind
I'm growing tired
Always picking up the pieces to this shattered life
It's not right

But you say
Everything will be alright
But I've heard
It all before don't waste my time
I won't play the fool
I won't listen to you
So I'll take life as it is
And make my own way through
WOO

Sick and tired of the same old story
Conversations getting boring
Another tired allegory
Pointless warning
I'm enduring
Sick and tired of the same old story
Conversations getting boring
Another tired allegory
Pointless warning
I'm enduring

The same old story

I've told you time and time again
I'm not the gullible child that I was
When the first bolt of lightning
Struck the first break in my defenses
Ever since then I've seen clearly
My body's been laid defensley
To the world that's formed around my without
One single resemblance
To the stability that I had before those around me wrecked it
Now I lay here every day just sick and tired of the wreckage
And I didn't fucking make this mess
But I'm the one it's left with

And you say
Everything will be alright
But I've heard
It all before don't waste my time
I won't play the fool
I won't listen to you
So I'll take life as it is
And make my own way through

Sick and tired of the same old story
Conversations getting boring
Another tired allegory
Pointless warning
I'm enduring
Sick and tired of the same old story
Conversations getting boring
Another tired allegory
Pointless warning
I'm enduring

Maybe it's useless
To try and prevent this
Maybe it's useless to me
Maybe it's useless
To try and prevent this

Maybe it's useless
To try and prevent this
Maybe it's useless to me
To me
