it's all i know

Synchronicities I'm seeing, coincidences, but I don't care
I don't have deities to believe in
'Cause my mother hates religion, didn't let me as a kid
So let me think the writings on the wall
Have any semiotic significance to it all
A belief system based only on the thing I want, love

Where every choice a refinement culture
Like maggots refining the flesh to bone
6 days of getting drunk in my room
'Cause I'm still not cool enough to ever go to any shows
Yeah I know I might've had it all
If I'd have taken action, striked the iron while it's hot
Just stare at the phone, wait for them to call up

It's never enough to
Just pretend to
Be content with how things are
But it's all I know
It's all I know
It's all I know

Every consequence of an action's
Effect on you is lessened by natural law (mhm)
Instead its crescendo comes at night
10 years down the line, the things that you missed out on (mhm)

And now they're gone
But that's just what you wanted
Because why else would you not
Finish anything you started
Just stare at the phone, keep waiting for that call up

I'm no savior
Yeah I know this
Don't be obsessed
Just approach this

With calm and collection
With affection
And you'll notice
There'll be no changes

Because it's never enough to (I'm no savior)
Just pretend to (yeah I know this)
Be content with how things are (don't be obsessed)
But it's all I know (just approach this)

It's all I know (with calm and collection)
It's all I've known (with affection)
It's all I've known (and you'll notice)
And it's all I'll know (there'll be no changes)
