Ungrounded
By James & Sarah Swank
I keep thinking life is just a dream
Nothing really is the way it seems
I keep searching for my paradise
But what I find is not so nice
It’s time I start to look inside
And see what things that I may find
But I’m afraid of what it is I’ll see
I fear that there are demons inside me
All of these fears compounded
I start to feel like I’m surrounded
I try to think but I’m confounded
How did I get so ungrounded?
Everything I do I think I’m wrong
I’ll probably even fuck up this song
I see a good man and I feel lust
But when I get close I feel disgust
I’m jealous of most every girl I see
I think that they are better than me
When feelings come I run and hide
I don’t want to show what’s deep inside
All of these fears compounded
I start to feel like I’m surrounded
I try to think but I’m confounded
How did I get so ungrounded?
Voices in my head attack my mind
All the things they said are so unkind
All the tears I shed just leave me blind
I’d rather stay in bed cause I’m disinclined
I look at what’s ahead and I see behind
I see this life I’ve led is undefined
I’ve lost all my cred, I’m so maligned
I wish I were dead, but I’m just resigned
All of these fears compounded
I start to feel like I’m surrounded
I try to think but I’m confounded
How did I get so ungrounded?
I’ve gotta get grip on my self
Put all these crazy thoughts on the shelf
I’ve gotta watch my tendency to run
I’ll address my issues one by one
I’ve gotta let people get close to me
It’s time to stop being an absentee
I know that if I stay I can find love
And all the other things I’m dreaming of
All of these fears compounded
I start to feel like I’m surrounded
I try to think but I’m confounded
How did I get so ungrounded?
How did I get so ungrounded?
How did I get so ungrounded?
