"Morning Zoo" lyrics

I look myself in the eye
I wake up every morning
I kill my thoughts with a knife
Then blow a kiss to the silence

How long does it take
To find the peace that I want?
And how long must I wait
To decide that it's over? Well, I don't know

The morning zoo is alive
But, I just keep getting smaller
It's my decision to lie
To settle down by the fire

How long does it take
To find the peace that I want?
And how long must I wait
To decide that it's over? Well, I don't know

Talk to myself all the time
Waiting on the long train
The Devil's right behind
Stuck in the passing lane

How long does it take
To find the peace that I want?
And how long must I wait
To decide that it's over and done?

And how long does it take
To find the peace that I want?
And how long must I wait
To decide that it's over? Well, I don't know

I got a piece of the pie
I could say 'when' if I wanted
