So Says I

I can’t shy away from this
though I really wish I could
I think it’d do us all some good
I have every intention of going where I go
left, left, right, left
Sometimes I miss it
There, I said it
But I’m not a broken heart, I just wanted to be alone
I’m not a sinking ship, I’m just testing the water
I’m not a lost soul, I’m just wandering around
So says I
We shed a snake skin
This life is dripping in, I’m going to trace it to the source
That life is fading out
The cost of evolution is the once familiar
I don’t really miss it
There, I said it
I’m not a passenger, I’m just along for the ride
I’m not a phantom limb, it’s just sometimes I get the itch
I’m not a lost soul, I’m just wandering around
So says I
This is how we turn into ourselves
Carry on, carry on
I’m not a broken heart, I just wanted to be alone
I’m not a sinking ship, I’m just testing the water
I’m not a lost soul, I’m just wandering around
So says I
