Anthony Carreras - In This Room (Live)

I remember damage then escape
Rummaging, running, ruminating in the wake
Of calamities and tragedies but actually maybe
It's a blessing in disguise
The camouflage was messing with my eyes
I remember damage then a break
Of all the things that I could ever think to forsake
Glass is scattered everywhere does someone have a rag to spare
'cause blood is dripping everywhere
Sew me up and I'll be on my way
I remember damage in a book
Light vacation reading and the evidence I took
Fiction's got a grip on me my genre now is fantasy
Well tell me baby can't you see that I'm the king of everything
I remember damage but today
The wind is moving through me in a kind of different way
As I glide along the greenbelt and I think about the cards I'm dealt
I bet you didn't know about the ace here that was hiding in my sleeve
Time to clean up
All of my spaces
I free up
All of my life
But don't speed up
I'm taking my time is all
Yes I'll take the smudge kit 'cause I'm driving out the demons and I'm
Keyed up
And cranking the speakers
I team up
With me myself and I
Don't speed up
I'm taking my time is all
It's not so bad you know
To reap what you sow
I'll take that to the moon
As the truth goes boom
In this room
I remember living through the storm
But unbeknownst to me you see the ship had passed
It happened fast and I was never warned
Retreating to my sanctuary altogether I was very
Trenchant when you think about it now
I remember learning from a friend
Complicated confiscated needing to pretend
I was circumspect in retrospect I wish I had been more direct
But I was trying to collect myself you said that I should have it all
I remember damage on the phone
How misleading and deceiving families in a home can be
Make believe and fantasy
Scratch the surface take a peek
This is what lies underneath
Instagram it's oh so picturesque
I remember damage then relief
Crowds of people staring in a daze of disbelief
Agitated, fascinated, love is misappropriated
All the theories they debated
Save your breath there's nothing there to see
Time to clean up
All of my spaces
I free up
All of my life
But don't speed up
I'm taking my time is all
Yes I'll take the smudge kit 'cause I'm driving out the demons and I'm
Keyed up
And cranking the speakers
I team up
With me myself and I
Don't speed up
I'm taking my time is all
It's not so bad you know
To reap what you sow
I'll take that to the moon
As the truth goes boom
In this room
I remember one year ago
Reaching for the medication
Ready for the mediation
Welcome to the show
Yes there goes a sneak attack and
Yes I want my money back
Hurry up already let's go
I remember daydreaming of a better life and a better love
I'm an open book and you know what I'm thinking of
This could be mine
In time
Before I go just one more thing
I confess I'm struggling to break this thing
It's a habit of obsession
How about this first impression
Quiet now 'cause I'm in session
If you'd like an answer get in line
All these things were shared
But now
They're mine
Time to clean up
All of my spaces
I free up
All of my life
But don't speed up
I'm taking my time is all
I'm keyed up
And cranking the speakers
I team up
With me myself and I
Don't speed up
I'm taking my time is all
So if you'd like to know
Buckle up, let's go
Just try hard not to swoon
As the truth goes boom
In this room
