I Hope You Understand

It's been a minute since I lost my way And I have not been feeling very well buddy I have not been feeling very well since then, okay It's been a minute since I checked way out It's been a minute since I had no doubt or fear Are you here to pave the way to my lantern atmosphere? Or are you gone, gone? Am I surprised? Maybe yeah sort of - but this is my life I am disordered - I'll fall to the side, then I'll fall to the sky, then I'll fall to the sky yeah! Somewhere in the darkness you said you'd be there Flip on the flood lights, cause I am right here I've got all my maps laid out on the floorboards Maybe give me your direction some more I just really hope you understand I really hope you understand and keep me sane while I work on my brain I hope you understand I really hope you understand and keep me sane while I work on it, I work on it So I let them all go, I let the dice roll I let the chips settle where they will, will, will But I have not been feeling very well buddy I keep on comparing myself, buddy, and it's getting me restless It's been a minute since I have felt whole I suppose I've just been feeling all alone buddy But this is gonna give too, do you promise? Something here is gonna give too do you promise? I've got all my maps laid out on the floorboards Maybe give me your direction some more I just really hope you understand I really hope you understand and keep me sane while I work on my brain I hope you understand I really hope you understand and keep me sane while I work on it, I work on it Isn't it true, that you're coming too? Isn't it true, that you're coming too? That I'm blinking in the darkness when I'm trying to find you When mind you- I've got such little proof besides you So what I'd do to fine the truth is pretty telling Well, let me riddle you this: You've been given to eyes, two wrists, two lips Only one heart and only one brain So playing the game is an uneven plain, saying "Riddle me up with your words!" I'm writing a prose, I'm writing a novel of my own self woes I am tired, I am tired of not being humble I'm a glass house, lord Excuse me then with my friends I cannot pretend I've amended all of my questions They are still questions and they need attention I'm taking a stand and trading it in with my head in my hands Saying you take the reigns, you take the plan, you take the night, you go instead I just really hope you understand I just really hope you understand I really hope you understand and keep me sane while I work on my brain I hope you understand I really hope you understand and keep me sane while I work on it, I work on it
