I don't have the dreams I keep hearing about
I can't pretend that I don't try
I wanna stop pretending
We're so content with passing by

But how could I think
That it's one or the other
When it's been so clear from the start?
To live in this world
Without you, here
I have only half a heart

Because it's in my veins
Not to be the same:
Blank and erased and tied into knots
Turning into chalk
And all the blackboard stains
I'd really rather not

[Chorus]
Oh no, here I go
Driftin' in and out and to the back
"To escape," she says, "jump in!"
Runnin' from my feet as if I ever had a chance

[vocalizations]
[Chorus]
Oh no, here I go
Driftin' in and out and to the back
"To escape," she says, "jump in!"
Runnin' from my feet as if I ever had a chance

Oh no, here I go
Driftin' in and out and to the back
"To escape..."
