Melange

so i don't look before i leap.
make your pledge to caution and you'll spoil everything.
and i don't lie me down to sleep.
i can't be satisfied if i'm not doing anything.

and i'm sobering
by the light of day.
and i have done you wrong.
the world is paranoid.
this sickening melange.

i can't keep names and faces straight.
make time and organize, but i don't have all day to wait.
pray tell, why should i medicate?
there are no answers in a vegetative state.

and i'm discovering
by the light of day.
and you have done me wrong.
the sheep are rioting.
this sickening melange.

this false utopia.
asylum in disguise.
how can you seek the truth?
you seek freedom in lies.

and i have suffered, i have failed.
i've lost and found myself on a monumental scale.
blind, but at least my eyes are clear.
i can't see heaven yet but i can tell you when i'm near

and i'm recovering by the light of day.
we've been so very wrong.
no answers from the void.
this sickening melange.
