Self - Shelf Life Lyrics

It's taken over

Against the grain, against the wall

I'm thinking everyday

Is nothing everlasting?



I miss your patience

I miss the ground beneath

I'm asking everything of you



I know that the way it's often said and done is unavoidable

When you're talking to yourself

I know fairy tales are make believe

But I can wait around

Up on the roof, Up on the shelf



Life

It's taken over

I can't bear when the waitings all been done

And I've still not had my fun

It's taken over, Yea



Turn off your bedroom eyes, sad and lonely

I'll pack up all my shit, I'll sell all my CD's



We've confirmation of no reverberation

that's what I'm asking anything of you



I know that the way it's often cool up

When you're reading off the walls

I know fiction can't always releive

But I can wait around



Up on the roof, Up on the shelf

Life

It's taken over

I can't bear when the waitings all been done

And I've still not had my fun



They took a razorblade

And cut them both right down

Quiet dark resume



It's taken over

It's taken over
