[Verse 1]
Drifting in and out, half asleep
Slipped on the wet tiles around the pool
I split my head down the front
You screamed and you slipped in my own blood
And in the morning, when I wake up
Try to catch up with what's already in motion
And I see people on the street
They don't know that I'm obsessed with them
I go to work and take it slow
I see the city, see people falling from windows
And where's the inspiration on an endless trip?
I never see it coming 'til I hit the ground running
[Chorus 1]
I made a call, you didn't answer
Said I'd call you back later
Never thought too much about the future
Until everything moves faster than it used to
[Verse 2]
But my perception of time
Just catching up from where I left it behind
And every day and every night
I try to rein in any excess in motion
I wrote a book full of things I'll never do
Yeah, I'm obsessed with them
I get back home and can't slow down
I see the city when I close my eyes
And my face under the weight of my beating head
Until I'm dying in my sleep again
[Chorus 2]
An ounce of care I never had
For anyone on my future
Never thought about the bigger picture
Until nothing's like I'm used to
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus 1]
I made a call, you didn't answer
Said I'd call you back later
Never thought too much about the future
Until nothing's like I'm used to
