Muses Lyrics

[00:41.49] Have you been there before?
[00:42.38] Cause I swear you look familiar
[00:44.17] I stand scratching my head to make my thoughts a bit clearer
[00:46.05] And you look at me
[00:47.80] Like I'm a bad news dealer
[00:48.73] But maybe you just know that I'm a soul revealer
[00:51.54] Yeah, but maybe I'm wrong
[00:52.46] So I just keep on walking
[00:54.29] As I start to walk, I hear the people start t-talking
[00:56.08] 'Bout the boy with the distant stare and the walk
[00:58.80] And the book held tight in his hands he keeps his thoughts in
[01:02.49] As I walk, the talk, it fades into the distance
[01:04.26] I start to ponder the true meaning of existence
[01:07.04] It was once theorized the X and Y of existence
[01:09.89] Are the feelings that you feel and levels at which you feel them
[01:12.59] With this in mind, I had to put pen to paper
[01:14.43] But even with this outlet, my mind began to waver
[01:17.10] I looked up to find a muse my mind could use
[01:19.96] A distraction from this sedulous mind abuse
[01:42.79] So there she stood, my inappropriate object of desire
[01:45.47] Just another inanimate object for me to cast into the mire
[01:47.39] I don't know yet
[01:49.14] But her visual's got me kinda transfixed
[01:50.90] I look away, I'm drifting back to her lips
[01:52.71] It's time to leave, so leave I did, I had to get the hell out of there
[01:55.59] Before I scared this bright-eyed queen with my macho man power stare
[01:58.21] I got home, unplugged the phone, and sat alone with my mind
[02:01.02] Had the sweetest night's sleep in her eyes that night
[02:03.70] See, this way I didn't ruin the illusion
[02:07.43] When pursuing a muse, the chances are that you'll lose 'em
[02:08.35] But even if you don't, they'll never live up to your expectation
[02:11.10] I'd rather keep them in my dreams and draw for inspiration
[02:13.82] But it's getting kinda crowded up there
[02:15.62] And the boundaries of my mind, I think, are starting to tear
[02:18.45] As the stronger realities start overtaking the meek, I'm like
[02:21.12] Did I even leave my house this week.?
[02:27.56]
