Lyrics Nothing More

You’re down in the desert mapping out mirages on the iridescent planes
I’m caught in the cascades, and I’m coming down like rain
Are you listening? I’m lost again

Everybody thinks this is the end of the line
I’ve got witnesses — they’re coming over tonight to comfort me
Still I don’t feel like the genuine article
The imposter poster child, the invisible
Eternally turning the leaf
Eternally turning the leaf

Bridges are burning — dissatisfaction guaranteed behind a smoking screen
I want to do what feels right — everybody’s so afraid — making mistakes — pick me up again

Everybody’s trying to congratulate me
I’ve got confidence that they’ve all been faking — we’ll wait to see
It’s a game we play since before we could speak
Where we hide the meaning — and we continue to seek
Eternally turning the leaf
Eternally turning the leaf

An empty bottle finally washed up on the shore
All sea and sand and nothing more
