Underpin Songtext
von Knavery

Three steps from the drop-off
My weight held in the underpin
I feel myself start to nod off
Another year, and I′m stuck here again
Will this house stop humming
Will the lights stay on
Was help ever coming
Did I do something wrong
My life is swimming in sound
Looping noise, unbearably loud


It's routine, full contact
Am I ever gonna get my life back
This cycle I′m lost in, delirium in between a new spin
Come chaos, from theory
Is the schedule I wrote gonna save me
Pictures from youth you start to ignore
And the magnets on the fridge don't hold anymore

Three feet from the bottom, my weightless body spins
While I wait for autumn, another harsh winter begins
Cover up in layers to keep the warmth inside
There's barely any left, but there′s nowhere else to hide

Wringing out the words I misread
Consciousness hanging by a thread
Wonder what it′s like to be dead
Forced awake, keep living instead

It's routine, full contact
Am I ever gonna get my life back?
This cycle I′m lost in, delirium in between a new spin
Come chaos, from theory
Is the schedule I wrote gonna save me?
Pictures from youth you start to ignore
And the magnets on the fridge don't hold anymore
