I've been spreading myself thin again and
Very little is getting
The attention it fully deserves
There are several causes for this
Strain half the time and
Half the time I'm doing my best
To arrange their conclusion, but
How effective can half-mast truly be?

How about we brood a little more?
Every time my mind wanders
I sink a little further
Scratch that scab, scratch that scab
That I'd so dearly wished would
Just become a scar
I suppose it's just those figurative bats that
Keep swinging at my head

It's a long road that's been chasing me
While that knife goes into my brain

How about we brood a little more?
Every time my mind wanders
I sink a little further
Scratch that scab, scratch that scab
That I'd so dearly wished would
Just become a scar
I suppose it's just those figurative bats that
Keep swinging at my head
That's preventing my escape
1-2-3-Go!

But I'll swing a little harder
I'll run a little faster
I've got the tools
Just need to use them
Though I just need to use
Though I just need to use

It's a long road that's been chasing me
While that knife goes into my brain
