Tommy Boys - 21 Reruns lyrics

Eyes white, red, and blue Lids barely even lifted Forgettable fools speak and walk heavy Bad habits become a way to bury our heads Down in the sand, sour waves colliding rocks and sea Wrong/right Same old sh**, different night So I sure don't need you to wreak havoc When the new sun comes, I'll be up Writing you songs in parking lots and tents Or just carelessly laying there Watching 21 reruns inside in one day Garden on landmines, you can't stand for anything Talking away it's tough to swallow your pride Or ever bear witness so I do not speak I can't claim what is mine So I take what isn't Just turn a phrase, what sense it's making To please the ones who sign and sell Forgettable fools Jaws to the ground Your teeth colliding tongue in cheek Shake habits that I haven't changed Skin left on the street I'm not designed to move this pace But can't deny it's appeal Fun for me is not what it is for you Swimming through oceans of bad advice Free reign, on the same orange frame Phone calls in your name I break and you mend So I can f** it up again Rewind the tape and hit play Reading chapters I've already read A pipe dream I can't decide if I should multiply or factor in The path ahead has been obstructed by past architects So I'm carelessly laying there Watching 21 reruns inside in one day Garden on landmines, you can't stand for anything Talking away it's tough to swallow your pride Or ever bear witness so I keep my mouth closed I can't claim what is mine So I take what never was I wanted to believe but I've been finding truths out Awaken to empty, lifted from a dream And you vanish from in front of me In the space of one blinking eye Said one thing and then did different I break and you mend Have I been falling out or settling in? Such a waste of time Places I have spent my youth and what's left
