It's not like there's a book for this or something you could read
Cuz Iâve looked around
I tried to fill these holes with other roles I never learned to play
It seems like they always falter
How the hell should I know
Cuz it always seems to disappear so quickly you canât see
Could somebody tell me where does the time go
Iâve got a bigger pile of questions than I could ever need
Thereâs no explaining these to me
Iâve never heard a word about the way weâre all received
At least that I believe in
I know traditions tell it's different, they spell it all it out to me
Thereâs no need to confuse me cuz I know what I know
And if everyoneâs all subscribed to fictions that canât be right
Then spinning we all collide one big typo this puppet show
Iâd usually begin this conversation differently
I know it's kinda one sided
It's so obvious the answer it's just a question I believe
That nobodyâs asking
What the hell do I know
If everyoneâs so unsure of
What's really below or above us
Then maybe we all buy in
And make our own collective end?
These puppet strings donât pull themselves
You're thinking thoughts from someone else
How much time do you think you have?
Are you prepared for what comes next?
