(Intro)
I see the cloud that surrounds me.
I hear the voices so loudly.
I feel the doubt, but don't count me out.
(Verse 1)
I almost feel like I've been missing my mission.
Been reminiscing on the past, not giving visions a visit.
I guess it's image that I worry for;
Saving face. Lay to waste
As I wait for my death on a dirty floor.
I'm imagining a ceiling that I made for myself.
So, I stay in a spell as my fate fakes a wealth.
Face is saved, I can tell, but the soul suffers.
Break away, and my mind as a whole buffers.
Try to ask me where I'm headed; watch this dolt stutter.
I don't know if I'm lost in the short or the long run.
I don't know if I'll be sore when it's all done.
All I really know is I need motion.
I'm sick of sitting faking hope when I'm hopeless. I need to move.
(Chorus)
Move. I want you to move.
No more complacency.
It may seem crazy, but I want you to move.
I see the cloud that surrounds me.
I hear the voices so loudly.
I feel the doubt, but don't count me out.
(Verse 2)
Where's my initiative?
I feel like I've given in.
I feel like my passion is Elvis;
Folks, Elvis has just left the building, and I'm working on booking another show.
But he's busy. No headliners, and my club is gonna die.
Or maybe, I just won't let it.
Instead of feeling dependant on random events,
I'll head in directions with better ends I feel like I can cause.
Return to sender this letter of stress.
I'm stressing a better direction of life where we never will pause. We'll only move.
