Deafening Ambition

from Knowing by Terrain

/

lyrics

I'm running out of patience
From watching myself grow
For years it's seemed like progress is slow

I'm running out of options
I've wasted time not choosing
Cause when you take what you can get,
You tend to wonder what you're losing

I'm running from my problems
'Cause I know I can't solve them
I'm just trying to forget that my life involved them

I'm running out of excuses
For who I am and what I want

-------
And I know that I've let you down
It's not that I don't owe you, It's that i still owe myself

'Cause I can't hear you over this song in my head
But you were right when you said
That I need to find the rhythm,
I wrote the melody instead
But you were right, yeah
That I need to find the rhythm,
I wrote the melody instead
-------

I'm falling in a habit of drinking on the workweek
Is there anyone out there?
Do we all have mood swings?

I'm falling in a routine
Of sleeping through the morning
I'm weary and tired from all these weeks of nothing

I'm falling out of love with
Every woman I did drugs with
When you spend your time wanting,
It makes you feel unwanted

I'm falling out of focus,
And I can't tell the things that matter
From the things that are just a blur

-------
And I know that I've blocked you out, believe me
It's not that I don't know you well,
It's that I still need to learn myself
'Cause I still can't imagine a life
Where we dress in suits and all believe in lies

And I can barely hear you speak
Over this song in my head
But you were right when you said
That I need to find the rhythm, I wrote the melody instead
But you were right, dad
That I need to find the rhythm,
I wrote the melody instead
-------

I'm running out of reasons
To keep changing with the seasons
No matter what the context.
I always find the same meanings

I'm falling out of contact
With my mother and father
I can't face my fears
They might have raised a failure
