lyrics

I've been staring at the ceiling
Still somehow can't shake this feeling
A shoe that I don't own is gonna drop
I've been searching for some remedies
Even getting on my knees
Anything to make these fears stop
If you're feeling satisfied, you'd better turn around

Don't you feel something rumbling underground?
When you state your claim, that's when they run you down

You never said you were unique
Still you turn the other cheek
Knowing that you always have that right
When you're awake, you're still amazed
Obsidian's the present hue of nightmares bleeding into days
If you're feeling satisfied, you'd better turn around

Don't you feel something rumbling underground?
When you state your claim, that's when they run you down

You're not sure when you gave up
But now you hold a paper cup
Hoping for some providence to fall
There's no reward for sitting still
You're just another space to fill
Until you clear the fog and see it all
If you're feeling satisfied, you'd better turn around

Don't you feel something rumbling underground?
When you state your claim, that's when they run you down
