Desconcerto

The Future Starts Today

Feeling so scared, I walk alone
Surrounded by everyone
And every road I try to walk
Is full of silence, I just can’t talk

All the things that come my way
Can’t change me, can’t fill me, can’t make me stay
Can’t make me shine the way I should
Can’t give me Life the way she could

I’m every tear of every eye of every man
Every fear and every pain and everything that’s hard to understand
I’m every piece of every game of every child
Every laugh and every joke and everything to make you smile

Feeling so bored, I change the world
Trying to murder my soul
And every word I try to speak
Is out of meaning, just makes me weak

All the things that come my way
Can’t foul me, can’t waste me, can’t make me pray
Can’t make me leave the way I should
Can’t give me madness the way she could

I’m every tear of every eye of every man
Every fear and every pain and everything that’s hard to understand
I’m every piece of every game of every child
Every laugh and every joke and everything to make you smile

The future starts today, so let’s take the sadness out of the way

You’re every feeling of every heart of every lover
Every light of every cigar of every smoker
Every piece of every puzzle of every life
Every word of every reason of every strife

You are me and I’m everyone
You are me and I’m everyone
You are me and I’m everyone
