"Hotel Room" lyrics

"Hotel Room"

I've been down for a thousand years
In a hotel room furnished with fear
Projecting images of confidence
I don't remember when I laughed like that
Watching this whole world collapse
Into its own consciousness

Heard that sound for a thousand years
Projecting images of fear
I wish that they'd just get on with it

And I know that you can't relate
With everything you have to take
And everyday just rages 'til the end
Burn it all and turn the page
Overkilled and understated
'Til every word disintegrates again

I roll that rock up and down that hill
In a hotel room with unpaid bills
Neglecting everything that's obvious
There I am walking down that hall
The elevator mirror says I'm ten feet tall
What's wrong with us

And all that pounding between my ears
The elevator music drives me to tears
And I just can't sing along with it

And I know that you can't relate
With everything you have to take
And everyday just rages 'til the end
Burn it all and turn the page
Overkilled and understated
'Til every word disintegrates again

And I know that you can't relate
With everything you have to take
And everyday just rages 'til the end
Burn it all and turn the page
Overkilled and understated
'Til every word disintegrates
Disintegrates again

I can't sit around sit around sit around here
I won't sit around sit around 'til it's this time next year
Sit around sit around living in my fear
I can't sit around sit around 'til it's this time next year

I won't sit around sit around sit around here
I can't sit around sit around 'til it's this time next year
Sit around sit around living in my fear
I won't sit around sit around 'til it's this time next year

I can't sit around
I just can't sit around
I won't sit around sit around sit around sit around
Sit around sit around sit around sit around here
