Grim Symmetry

[Verse 1]

Transgression got the best of me

Anyone with two eyes could see

Forever in the in-between

Forever down, forever

Another dull eternity

The whole world rolling under me

Won't learn to turn the other cheek

Won't settle down, no, never

[Pre-Chorus]

Will I be satisfied nor leave well enough alone?

[Chorus]

Another's eyes to meet

Grim symmetry

The man I'd like to be

A guillotine

The stranger on the street

A feeling of incompleteness

Washes over me

Over everything

[Verse 2]

Another obvious trap door

Yet I am falling through the floor

My friends and neighbours are appalled

Forever in the cellar

Another bar, another night

One more attempt to be polite

These sneaking feelings won't keep quiet

But I will try because I

[Pre-Chorus]

Fear that it gets less clear the the more it is explained

[Chorus]

Another's eyes to meet

Grim symmetry

The man I'd like to be

A guillotine

A stranger on the street

A feeling of incompleteness

Washes over me

Over everything
