Evenness Of Mind, Especially Under Stress Lyrics

You're sitting right next to me

I'm shaking like a leaf, shaking like a leaf, shaking like

The tremors spill the inkwell

Stain me up and down my sleeve

Now tensions building

We stop, catch our breath

The things you want from me

Are the ones that you just won't do for yourself

Yourself

You're sitting right next to me

In equanimity, apathetically, ignoring me

In favor of the window

In favor of a time you'd rather be

And when the silence finally cracks

The reproach just pours

From the wound in my back

I can't give you any more

For all my reaching out

I'm met with nothing

Fucking look at me

I know you're drowning in the wells behind your eyes

Sit and grit your teeth

Bury it beneath an act, betrayed

By your knuckles turning white

You're a lucky kid, but you'll ruin it

Before you realize

That you were wrong this time

And I'm met with nothing

I am met with nothing

I'm met with (You're a lucky kid, but you'll ruin it)

(You're a lucky kid, but you'll ruin it)

I'm met with nothing (You're a lucky kid, but you'll ruin it)

(You're a lucky kid, but you'll ruin it)

I'm met with nothing
