lyrics

i thought you would've won by now
i thought you would've thrown around your weight
you said you had it figured out
but still you're always running late

and when a touch of something real comes, you'll have a reaction
and eventually devolve into a fatal attraction
it's a big-small town so everybody has got their faction
but the kids keep asking when is something new gonna happen?

got a ghost in the front yard, it hangs around my family tree
and it fills the empty space where a stump shows where it used to be

but my depression's just a symptom of my misplaced affection
and the years i spent wandering without any direction
since my accidents i haven't lapsed in paying attention
finally realized that you'll get by simply riding the tension
