about

This track doesn't hit as close to home as it did when I wrote it, but I remember that listless feeling well. And dammit if that feeling isn't utterly pervasive right now.

lyrics

Walk upstairs -- I could venture outside
Find a way to put my essence to use
What’s the point? I’m not going anywhere
Even if I wanted to

Find a way
To put my essence to use
Please forgive my doubt
Doubt of the benefit

The man up there -- he’s got some good ideas
Not well known -- it’s never stopped him before
Don’t they know he’s just trying to help them
How he can -- give him time

Find a way
To let my soul breathe again
Please forgive my doubt
Doubt of the benefit

Stay the course -- I could change any time
Find a way to let my soul breathe again
One last act to defy the words
That I hear in my head

Find a way to let my soul breathe again
