Cex - The Strong Suit lyrics

Feels like someone dropped my eyes In a cradle of needles Like you'd drop ice cubs in a bar gla** I stare out from behind my eight a.m. sting Through the pa**enger side of this rented van's dash I am a boy, who snuck in his father's closet Put on a suit, and got hired for his father's job And before i could push my hand Through the oversized sleeve to stop it I was hired on the spot And now i am a travelling salesmen I am eeking out a living Breathing, missing, pitching, lying I am a travelling salesmen Body fastened tight around the child I'm swimming in it And when i find myself Behind the wheel in my sleep Which is everynight I realize, only thought i could drive But i figure if i can Stay unconcious for half the day I double my chances to get it right Just choose a destination Any destination See the destination To make it there just once I wanna put one foot In front of the other And be one step ahead Of where i was I don't get up With the majority I don't go out With a fingernail I don't get up I don't get down But i still breathe At least for now I don't get up I don't go out I don't move, won't lose And i won't breakdown Keeping buying my suits smaller and smaller Hoping i will be demoted when they notice Keep leaving my cells in your sisters and daughters To try and escape disguised as my own kid I'd sell cheap encyclopedias, vacuums I'd sell my own soul Throw open the backroom's doors and show you That nobody knows how the cars Get us all where we're going You can turn the wheel But it won't be controlled You can shake when you go out Collapse back home The little victories Are gifts from coincidence Each sale's just a??? The vacant chambers are infinite You didn't get sh** from the universe Until the barrel turns To the place where the bullet waits And everything you've earned Is reduced to its actual value That's how you understand The boulder always falls back downhill Each sentiment expressed Was born to recreation And the energy can not be remade We change its state Call our new music groundbreaking But??? takes And eventually all the noise we make Will go away But i'm just a boy in my father's suit What do i know? I shouldn't be here But since i am Can i interest you in a little snakeoil? I don't get up With the majority I don't go out With a fingernail I don't get up I don't get down But i still breathe At least for now I don't get up I don't go out I don't move, won't lose And i won't breakdown
