Crowded Isolation, Pt. 1 Lyrics

Alarms clock strikes, sends my mind reeling

I feel like falling back

But the murmur of the night

Turns into urban heart attack

I turn the ignition the city starts up

Throbbing like a headache

I peer through the windshield

Then drive off

Crashing into the day

It's a crowded crowded isolation

And my heart my heart can't stand that pace

It's a crowded crowded isolation

Always feeling out of place

Every day the clock's hands pull me here

And here they hold me down

With sleight of hand

They steal my life away

Then my time is measured in money

If that's how they sum up my life

It's a hell of a thing for an epitaph to say

I go out I go out each morning

But I feel like I'm going nowhere

In this world that worships a buck

Sometimes I feel like I don't have a prayer

You can punch a clock for too long

Until you've got nothing left

Nothing left that feels right

I used to feel like something was added

To my life with each passing day

Now it seems that all I can feel

Is something more slipping away
