Scott Joseph Anderson - Object

I think I know what I need best
But I have needs I must confess
They're buried deep
I know them well
They know me too
They give me hell
Reckless and poor
Can't bring it back
A simple life
Is all I want
I could be more
I'm sure I'm less
I live inside
My room's a mess
My body rests
My mind at ease
That's my desire
That's what I please
To base my life
On what I eat
Is nothing more
Than self defeat

Sunlight sets, no control
Truths are spilled to the floor
The city sleeps, overload
I will dream forevermore

Going outside
Is too much stress
I must turn right
But I go left
I crumble in
The light of day
I turn to dust
I fade away
So many clothes
Will never fit
On my body
My second skin
In my hometown
I live the past
I'm 17
Where I was best
I talk nonsense
For no-one else
Except for me
They are my crutch
I can't wait now
It's time to go
A place I know
But there's still hope

Sunlight sets, no control
Truths are spilled to the floor
The city sleeps, overload
I will dream forevermore
Sunlight sets, no control
Truths are spilled to the floor

These words are my own
They cut me to the bone
