Beyond the broken ice
Of my anxiety
Beyond those butterflies
I found you waiting for me

Beyond my two left feet
And tripping on the dance floor
Beyond my clueless ignorance
Of what I’m meant to stand for

Beyond my pesky pessimism
And I am left with all this feckless fatalism
And way beyond procrastination
It’s where I like to hide and store my stubborn hesitation

I keep on walking through this valley of laziness
I don’t mean to cause you pain
You lock me outside while I’m clutching my indolence
And I’m left standing in this acid rain

We keep on keeping on
It’s like we all just want to keep on
You asked me if it’s all just a con
Well I don’t know, but we gotta learn to look beyond

I keep on looking for the root of my apathy
To stop this from happening again
Why am I building this circular travesty?
Is this just my train in vain?

‘Cause I know, that I know that this cycle needs breaking
But the answer’s not clear to me
And I’m starting to fear that my world’s getting smaller
And I’m just another detainee

It’s either good or bad
With lot’s of repetition
And today’s just like yesterday

I’m upside down
With most of it on purpose
And I’m running out of things to say

‘Cause I know, that I know it’s like a Peter Pan Syndrome
And I’m living in Neverland
And I’m looking around at all this solitary madness
With supply killing all of our demand

We keep on keeping on
It’s like we all just want to keep on
You asked me if it’s all just a con
Well I don’t know, but we gotta learn to look beyond

Beyond the tears I cried
Beyond this tongue that’s tied
Beyond a million words that seem to slice like paper cuts
Beyond us
Beyond us
