My Mouth Is Full Of Excuses

by Amish Rage

/

lyrics

[i just can't bring myself to cross that threshold. i stand at the precipice of knowing - knowing with every bone in my body, but these creeping doubts hold me to the perimeter as the gap dividing belief and unbelief widens beneath my feet, and i teeter on the brink of falling through these cracks into the loony bin.]

i represent myself teetering on your fencepost. straddle an argument that's waging war on itself. i'm deciphering scrawls and talking at the walls. immerse yourself. immerse yourself.

i want to see a sign before i jump off that wall because my heart is hungry, but my mouth is full. i only want to see a sign. i'm hurling hope at the wall because my heart is hungry, but my mouth is full of excuses.

[no. you're not falling asleep. no, no. you're just waking up. oh, get off of your high horse. you're not fooling a soul. no, no, no, no. i'm not bitter. i'm just armed to the teeth. oh, i would nip it in the bud if i weren't treading this sea of excuses]

you know you've seen too much when you've seen it unfold with your eyes closed. it skitters on its crutch. better keep on climbing that ladder. you beat a beached whales bones. crawl back to davy jones. immerse yourself. immerse yourself.

i want to see a sign before i jump off that wall because my heart is hungry, but my mouth is full. i only want to see a sign. i'm hurling hope at the wall because my heart is hungry, but my mouth is full of excuses.

[no. you're not falling asleep. no, no. you're just waking up. oh, get off of your high horse. you're not fooling a soul. no, no, no, no. i'm not bitter. i'm just armed to the teeth. oh, i would nip it in the bud if i weren't treading this sea of excuses]

when you're hungry, but your mouth is full of excuses. when you're hungry, but your mouth is full of excuses. when you're hungry, but your mouth is full of excuses. when you're hungry, but your mouth is full of excuses.

[what you think is normal isn't normal. nothing is. you're tied to a stalagmite, watching shadows dance across the walls, and you think that this is real life. you think that this is normal.]
