lyrics

My thoughts
are taking me off course
off the rails
and down in the weeds of course
in the shallows, in the shadows
I've got theories no one would believe

I just need a reality check, would you be?
I just need a second set of eyes to reflect, would you be?

I'm lost
in the funhouse, in the mirror maze
in the echo chamber
the breadcrumbs
that were supposed to lead me home
they got snatched up

I just need a reality check, would you be?
I just need a second set of eyes to reflect, would you be?

Let's take it apart and put it back together
when we fix it we can make it better
I'm just trying to be worth your effort
if I ever make it out of the desert
I missed connections in the correction pages
I've got to sift my silo with patience
but I haven't been in school in ages
what happens if I lose the tools it takes

I just need a reality check, would you be?
I just need a second set of eyes to reflect, would you be?
I just need a reality check, would you be?
I just need a second set of eyes to reflect, would you be?
I just need a reality check, would you be?
I just need a second set of eyes to reflect, would you be?
