I've never told anybody that before

My vision moves much slower than my eyes.
Staggering down a straight and narrow path.
Moving when I should be standing still.
Or is it the other way around?
You're one in a million to me.
While I'm just one of a million.
It seems like despair is much better at taking over than happiness.
Maybe because you just feel it more heavily.
Happiness makes you carefree and light.
You lose track of time when you're floating.
It drags along when you're pinned under an oppressive rock.
I'll just swim down until I reach the bottom.
I'm waterproof but I'm running out of air.

Building a House With No Foundation

Where's my head?
I've traveled so far and I knew I was going to forget something.
Thinking too clearly to really be me.
I'm usually cloudy with a chance of fucking stupid.
You should do card tricks because you're quite the illusionist.
Never mind the accidental references.
Get over yourself long enough to see who you're under.
Working out these meaningless words so they can have definition.
My heart strings have me tied up and locked in a back room.
In a way I don't want to break free.
How long can I live isolated from reality?
