Story Behind The Song

This song was written during one of my many bouts with insomnia. It is a tale of being stuck, yet observing that stuckness.

Lyrics

THROUGH MY WINDOW TO MY WALL
IT LOOKS JUST RIGHT
SILHOUETTES OF TREES AGAINST MOONLIGHT.
CAN'T TAKE MY SHOES OFF
CAN'T GO OUT WITH THE BOYS
THAT'S MY SITUATION.

CAN'T WRITE NO SONG
EXCEPT ABOUT MYSELF
CAN'T BE DISTRACTED FROM NO BOOK DOWN FROM MY SHELF.
AND ALL THEM GUITARS THAT JUST HANG UPON MY WALL.
THATS MY SITUATION,
THEY JUST DECORATION.

AND THE TRAILS GONE COLD
AS THE NIGHT GOES ON
FOR MILES AND MILES WITHOUT ANY DESTINATION
THAT'S MY SITUATION.
THAT'S MY SITUATION.

NOW THE SHADOWS FADE AS DAWN COMES CREEPING THROUGH
THE CARD IS ON THE TABLE
ONCE AGAIN I PULLED THE FOOL.
MY EYES THE FEEL SO HEAVY
BUT MY MIND MOVES SO DAMN FAST.
I REALLY NEEDED REST TONIGHT
BUT NOW MY CHANCE IS PAST.
I REALLY NEEDED REST TONIGHT
BUT NOW MY CHANCE IS PAST.

AND THE TRAILS GONE COLD
AS THE NIGHT GOES ON
FOR MILES AND MILES WITHOUT ANY DESTINATION
THAT'S MY SITUATION.
THAT'S MY SITUATION.

NOW ITS TIME TO MOVE
BUT MAN I JUST FEEL LIKE A GHOST
SO MANY THINGS I GOT TO DO TODAY
I'LL DO 'EM HALF AT MOST
SO I PRAY I GET SO WORN DOWN
HELL RIGHT NOW MY NERVES ARE WRECKED
IF I WORK MY FINGERS TO THE BONE WELL I MIGHT JUST GET SOME REST
IF I WORK MY FINGERS TO THE BONE WELL I MIGHT JUST GET SOME REST

AND THE TRAILS GONE COLD
AS THE NIGHT GOES ON
FOR MILES AND MILES WITHOUT ANY DESTINATION
THAT'S MY SITUATION.
THAT'S MY SITUATION.
