MAYCOMB LYRICS

"Sinking Song"

I've got this sinking feeling
It took the best of me to master the art of mediocrity
I've got some bright ideas
I've got these hopes and dreams
I've got a world that's indifferent to me

And you speak the truth
I just find it so much harder than you make it seem
It sounds so easy...

You've got your own agenda
Sharpen your claws and teeth
Carve me a crass and crude obituary
You made me see; I was so naive
I guess I had it coming to me...

Come back stronger and you'll get what you deserve
There's no easy way to learn how it's a long way down
And you speak the truth
I just find it so much harder than you

You must have an arduous job to do
Without the burden of my banality
And I guess I really struck a nerve this time
You shot holes in my integrity
And I'd bite my tongue, but the irony flows
When you recite my flaws in sub-standard prose

Come back stronger
You'll get what you deserve
The truth is I find it so much harder than you make it seem
It sounds so easy

I've got this sinking feeling...
