Benji Cover - Serotonin

Pick a fight with the ocean
Guess who's going to win
It's the same with the emotions
And the thoughts you're swimming in
Maybe I just need more serotonin
To get me through this climb
Maybe we're all dying in slow motion
But living in real time

And that thought might bring you down
I find it builds me up
When I feel I'm drowning
In this overflowing cup
You could flail around
Say you've had enough
I've found life doesn't much care
That you think you've had it rough
You're so focused
And I'm a mess
We're so stressed
I get no jokes
You get no rest

So you take on evolution
Guess who's going to lose
It's the same with the illusion
That you're choosing what you choose
And maybe it's just excess serotonin
That's got my thinking all addled up
Or maybe it's just the world overflowing
That dinky little cup

But let it wash us down
And raise us up
And if the fountain
Overflows and never stops
Don't flail around
Or say you've had enough
Take a look around
You'll see who's had it rough
And I'm so focused
And in my head
I'm swimming in it
But it hasn't broken us
Just yet

So let's not pick a fight with the ocean
Maybe she won't mess with us
Just leave her to her tidal motion
Maybe that's enough
Maybe we all need more serotonin
To get us through this climb
Maybe we're all dying in slow motion
But living in real time

But it need not bring us down, no
It could build us up, yes
When we feel we're drowning
In this overflowing cup
Let's not flail around
Most everybody's got it rougher than the story goes
And lord knows
We've been spinning around enough
And we're so focused
We can't rest yet
It's what we get
Now that it's so soaked us
That we can't tell we're wet
