CHEWIE - I Rarely Relate lyrics

What do you do when you're feeling
Numb and emotionally deaf and dumb?
Striving for direction and mutual affection
You tried so hard but now your
Heart is floating like a stone
And someone told me it's not
Having the best of anything
It's doing the best with
Anything that you have try telling that to
An introspective sociopath
Who's substituting unity for
A heard mentality
But, you've already fallen asleep (Oh)

I trip on cobblestones, I'm none too graceful
But so much worse could happen on a night
Like this so I guess I'm grateful
While the kids dress bright
With dim intentions
The price of your life could
Be a worldly possession
And son they've sold you a life
Since the first day you're alive
I couldn't tell you it's a lie you had
To see it with your own eyes
When I was growing up the world
Was in a different state
Survival's the same game, otherwise
I rarely relate

It's the same old song, I've heard too long
It's the same old song
I've heard too long and it goes
"I'm not happy on my own
So I gave up a little too easy this time"
"I'm not happy on my own
So I gave up a little too easy this time"
(Oh)

And you're screaming so loud till
Your lungs hit the ceiling
Try it again, try it once more with feeling
Try it over, try it over, try it over again
I know it may seem like I'm
Babbling but in my head, it makes such sense
I'm trying to navigate my way
Through the jungle of existence
There's no maps or trails to speak of
And we burned the history books
We'll end up where we started
Until we start lookin' up

It's the same old song, I've heard too long
It's the same old song
I've heard too long and it goes
"I'm not happy on my own
So I gave up a little too easy this time"
"I'm not happy on my own
So I gave up a little too easy this time"
(Oh)

There are no cryptic walls between us
There are no lines between the words
And the poet's segregation seems absurd
There are no oceans in between us
There's no imagery to cross
Sometimes the only thing that's left
To do is talk
Sometimes the only thing that's left
To do is talk
