Out To Walk My Dog Lyrics

Your head is empty now

Symptoms you'd never tell

You been hangin' 'round in the darker corners

That never treat you well

Waiting around for another season

To see where this whole thing goes

Asking around for a new direction

But nothing ever shows

Hand holding on to the end of a pull string

There's nothing left at all

You're out for some form of explanation

I'm out to walk my dog

Not seeing any point, it seems there's

No sense to try at all

Has there remained any other reason

Than than just to carry on?

You know this life is long

A fact you can't employ

You're running out of the same distractions

To try and fill the void

All talk is cheap when there's no form of action

To use the days you own

You won't get back all the time you're wasting

Come on get ready to go

It's all a passing breath

Perhaps it's all in vain

And all the ways you defined your being

They never meant a thing

Each day's a brand new death

Of what it was before

For what it was and what's coming after

Were both just darkened doors

All of your life living in their shadows

Left standing in the hall

Sitting for years in your growing garden

Unfit to climb the wall

The mask you wear, still it weighs upon you

Despite the things you've heard

You've used your soul as a beast of burden

But you know you your heart is a bird
