Paragraph Lyric
Swimming on the surface
It's a hell of a lot safer up here
Ain't prepared to dive
And uncover all my darkest fears
This ain't no covert operation
I don't have that much concentration
Staring at the clock
And my patience is wearing thin
One more down the gullet
Keeps me from jumping out of my skin
I'm lost in the fog of contradiction
I toast to the extras
I drink to them 'cause they don't talk to much
They fill up space and entertain
And when I cut 'em loose they don't make a fuss
They all add up to zero in my life
They're just here to cure boredom for the night
Now sometimes all this leaves me feeling hallow
That's when I take refuge with my pillow
I'm not even ready for confession
That's right
Swimming on the surface   It's a hell of a lot safer up here   Ain't prepared to dive   And uncover all my darkest fears   This ain't no covert operation   I don't have that much concentration   Staring at the clock   And my patience is wearing thin   One more down the gullet   Keeps me from jumping out of my skin   I'm lost in the fog of contradiction   I toast to the extras   I drink to them 'cause they don't talk to much   They fill up space and entertain   And when I cut 'em loose they don't make a fuss   They all add up to zero in my life   They're just here to cure boredom for the night   Now sometimes all this leaves me feeling hallow   That's when I take refuge with my pillow   I'm not even ready for confession   That's right
