The fifth track off of Kanen Seth's EP, Doubleplusgood.
lyrics
3 out of 10 gets respect and to the other 7, well what did you expect, to see
Now 4 out of 5 well that ain't so bad but when they're not with you, now it's looking kind of sad, you see
That I don't, I don't hear the silence but I'm guessing that's the point
It breaks me down just to build me up but then breaks me down again
And I can't, I can't comprehend what happened now and then
Size it up and I feel so small, now I'm left right here to call
I forget the words and forget the lines, I forget it all right 'round
Feel the rush that hit so hard now we're going going down
I remember trying to brave these words I spoke
But now, now I plead, you can forget about me
So no boos no cheers no they don't mean thing, no ups no downs, I'm living on a plane, today
It's not fun or fair but it's funny enough how fairly often you call my bluff, it's fun
To pretend, pretend, we're wide awake just to keep the monsters at bay
Shake them off but they get back on, well when did they get so strong
And the tension is building with the water that's filling and getting higher still
This happens a lot more often than not, now I'm feeling all distraught
I regret the times I ignored the signs I was feeling so unbound
See a great who does the same, but that meaning is not found
I remember trying to brave these words I spoke
But now, now, now I plead, you can forget about me
Forget about me, yay yay yay, eh-hey
And the sights, left unseen, forever clean, unscathed
For what it's worth, it's worth a look, well just a peak to see
All the merriment cheer mixed with miserable fear that paralyzes time
I'm sorry to bore, I'll get back to the chorus, I'm just always wanting more
Forget the words and forget the lines just forget it all right 'round
Feel the rush that hit so hard now we're going going down
I remember trying to brave these words I spoke
But now, now now, now I plead, you can forget about me
