What is Up?

So you want to know what is up
That's not just gonna happen that easy
What is work and what is love
Try so desperate to find a pattern to please me

If one question is allowed
By the time you've got to sit them down
To make it count
Give up before you start

You walk through the remains of the dead
Parts of pidgeons scattered on the ground
But we can't replace what's been said
With the things we thought as we were walking out

So tie your hands behind your back
And brace yourself for the attack
Of all the voids to come
Of pills you wish you could spit out again

By the time you've worn their patience out
To worm your way inside
The bathroom mirror is painted over
So your stupid face can hide
It's not too late to get 8 hours of sleep
If you don't mind waking up at 6 pm
If you don't mind wasting another day again

The dust collects
The ashes fall
Give in to neglect
You feel so small
Inside your head
Begins to form
A thought:
Was it worth it at all?
Don't regret, repress
The times you fall
Forget lessons
You can't recall
You grow
You change
And after all
You're not the same
You were before
The dust collects
When all is through
I'm glad I wasted time with you
