Routine

Routine
you're falling down
in front of me
the cycles neverending
and now i know
i can't believe
you're crisis of pretending
i paid the rent
i stayed a while
the act was getting tired
and now i know
i can't believe
the act you'd had's expired
(chorus) i gave the best of me
and now that's all i've got
i've given in to live the same routine
and as it starts to rot
same as it was before
i've given in to live the same routine
procrastinate
a little while
a job i need to find one
there's got to be
be something more
than asking myself what for?
there's little time
for me to waste
and all i do is waste it
there's got to be
be something else
and i just want to taste it
(Chorus)
the air is thick again
filled with friends that i can't call
i've given in to live the same routine
this cannot be
this cannot be right
time
thinking myself back again
fine
lying to myself and then
cry
tear will wash this hope away
cry, cry, why
oh when i find where i should be
i wish to stay
(chorus)
