Deteriorating Lyrics - Singles - Eyenine

miniscule, simple, lingering reasons to be alive 

couldn't come to grips with running in circles from nine to five 

it's a little bit ridiculous thinking that this is fine 

make a reading of my being by seeing into my eyes 

i've been fine with the silence so far 

been so quiet at times, i forget where you are 

it's not what i wanted, and who wants to be forgotten? 

never thought that all this nonsense could be part of what is rotten 

it's the combination of abominations 

and the viruses spreading all across the nation 

we've been sinking in the quicksand, while we stick to his plan 

if this man and this man don't get along we disband 

i'm sick of illiterates in positions that benefit 

all the ignorant little kids while they're building this edifice 

representing the betterment of their sediment settlement 

while their rhetoric's evident of a prevalent relevance 

to neanderthals, can't we all just get along and live under the same roof? 

and who will be the first to figure out it isn't rain proof? 

the same who betrayed you and swayed you to leave 

they've been trained in the ways to deceive 

i'm not a fan of fading languages, much less discrepancy 

learn how to speak before you message me 

up from another exposed distance with a vision 

to be different than these regular conditions, we 

move along to be safe from the fire's spread 

until we gather all our bearings and we try again 

desire sets in the best men first, and we'll never know 

the end if all the rest get worse, see 

i've been conversing with this planet and her better side 

and what she said is if we let her die, it's genocide 

a friend of mine expressed concern for our betterment 

which changed my mind on what ive learned about the medicine, 

here's a little thing that i love to watch you learn about 

by word of mouth, i've blurted out these things that you're concerned about 

so get in line and take a number 

wait inside, sit there and wonder 

cause now's the time for the eternal slumber 

it won't be fine, we're humanities last blunder 

d - e - t - e - r - i - o - r - a - t - i - n - g 

i see you're 

d - e - t - e - r - i - o - r - a - t - i - n - g 

i see you're 

d - e - t - e - r - i - o - r - a - t - i - n - g 

i see you're 

d - e - t - e - r - i - o - r - a - t - i - n - g 

i see you're 

d - e - t - e - r - i - o - r - a - t - i - n - g 

i see you're 

d - e - t - e - r - i - o - r - a - t - i - n - g 

well i'm writing of my own accord, i've sold the source 

and i cannot tell you who can show you more 

so just close the door and walk away 

i'd like to help you but today is just not the day 

i've lost the way to talk to everyone around me 

and i tend to walk in circles on the way to different counties 

it's astounding, everyone who's ever had a thing to say 

has never been too clear like they were living on a different page 

it's been this way for every year i've lost a bit of sanity 

i try to gather more and throw away the things you've handed me 

i plan to be a man who's standing on the brink of letting go 

the secret's all around me but i guess i wasnt set to know 

this metronome is giving out improper beats per minute 

unless it's just my mind and time is losing ground within it 

it's infinite, all the limits that just kick in when i'm finished 

so i listen, but i miss it 'cause the sound must be diminished 

i administer a sinister cadence around my rhetoric 

you said that it's a menace, i consider it just medicine 

like sedatives for everyone that listens to this music 

i choose to see a soothing type of view for when i use it 

if i ever thought this music could so much of a gift 

i'd have probably started writing songs while tucked into my crib 

looking back, i'm glad it wasn't hopeless 

the more i'd focus, the more doors would open 

and all the little mrs. robinson's were dropping hints 

promising the world in order to reward all my accomplishments 

i watched this remaining safe in the distance 

ready to break in an instant but stayed to wait for assistance 

the makeshift beds made out of a park bench 

stuck waiting, patience had taken my common sense 

ready to strike at any deal that i liked 

never reading the fine print, almost signed away my life
