Clean Slate – Quicksand

Envy of a sense of true identity
A sign of confidence to see
Because when she said “I love that music, too”
She meant, “Only as long as you want me too”
So sad, we don’t see
Until we become what they want us to be
It’s too late

I don’t know why
But what they want me to do
I do it
Powered by wealth
Changing myself
And if they only knew that I knew it, yeah
And it seems that the real life will have to wait
Because the world’s so busy
So busy, cleaning a clean slate

Clean slate
Oh

Ahh, hoping to find what’s mine
So I can lead a full life
Use a knife and dig in like a cannibal
Out for, for myself
But all the things I want are serving someone else

I don’t know why
But what they want me to do
I do it
Powered by wealth
Changing myself
And if they only knew that I knew it, okay
And it seems that the real life will have to wait
As the world keeps cleaning
It’s cleaning

The spin cycle runs round
A clear decision can be found
Can’t think when my mind
My mind runs ’round
