Perfectly still

I might decide
That the passing of time
Marked by one second lines
Is all that stands in the way
Of a lifetime spent catching up
And an endless perfect day

I might decide
To show you the signs
They have been finding their own way
Turning from nothing serious
Into the things I might say

Blank is the stare
Blank is the stare
I have perfected for you

Perfectly still
Perfectly still
I'll do the thinking for you

Blank is the stare
I'm barely there
I have become this for you

Perfectly still
Chasing down pills
I will be happy for you

Blank is the stare
Beginning to tear
My focus is falling through you Perfectly still
You know I will
The time and the place will find you

Blank is the stare
Blank is the stare
I have perfected for you

The drone of the day
Keeps me awake
And I can't seem to shake
The sinking feeling
Of being replaced

It ricochets
Through my brain
As it breaks my stride
And sets my pace

Blank is the stare
Blank is the stare
I have perfected for you

Perfectly still
Perfectly still
I'll do the thinking for you

Blank is the stare
I'm barely there
I have become this for you

Perfectly still
You know I will
The time and the place will find you

Blank is the stare
I have perfected for you
