Up the Wall

Base your actions on your peersThere has to be some purpose here
You let time slip by in your mind
Because you, don't wanna waste, your time

So you Fall into the sad routineYou've finished studying
You put an end to your dreams
Then you think now's the time to settle down
Build a home, mark the sacred ground

Well it's hard to take apart
When the past flies by
It's in the house, and out the door
You're on the couch, and I'm up the wall

You find love or something close enough
While inside is home to pain
You stumble home in the drunken union
So the cycle can start up again

But pretty soon the fighting starts
You've got a third of a broken heart
And through the dark comes an eerie laugh
Of a man reliving his own past

Well nothing lasts in the dark
The veil is lifted, it all falls apart
It's in the house, and out the door
You're on the couch, and I'm up the wall
