Directions
KAMIKAZE-KID Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's running it'll settle down, a lie
But I just wanna tell myself
What I need to hear
I'm lying there, I'm thinking
There's always another day, it's gone
But what if I could take it back
Wouldn't that be nice
I try to put that record on
That old and tired worn out dusty one
Cuz it feels alright
I don't like the silly place I find myself in
cnd I been looking for a way out
From here
cnd I been looking for a way out
From here
cnd I been looking for a way out
From here
cnd I been looking for a way out
From here
Some might say that this
Is living like it's meant to be
But I keep asking for an alternate
Reality
What I won't tell you, well
I'll probably never tell myself, cuz I've
Got everything to think about
cs time runs out
I need a vibe, just tell me
What I'm really supposed to do, should I
Grab a guitar and just play myself
Right on out
I don't like the silly place I find myself in
cnd I been looking for a way out
From here
cnd I been looking for a way out
From here
cnd I been looking for a way out
From here
cnd I been looking for a way out
From here
I just need some directions, mmhmm

I just need some directions, oh yea well
Well I'm asking for directions, oh yea
I just need some directions, mmhmm
I'm just asking directions, oh yea
I just need I just need I just need those directions
Can you please help me find those directions
I just need those directions

I can't control my mind
My thoughts are racing out of control
It's running it'll settle down, a lie
Although it seems like my mind will calm down, it's actually just a false hope
But I just wanna tell myself
I simply want to convince myself
What I need to hear
The words that will provide me comfort or guidance
I'm lying there, I'm thinking
I'm lying down and contemplating
There's always another day, it's gone
Although there is always a new day, it passes too quickly
But what if I could take it back
If only I could undo what has already happened
Wouldn't that be nice
It would be pleasant if that were possible
I turn around, I stop
I make a sudden change in direction and pause
I try to put that record on
I attempt to play that familiar record
That old and tired worn out dusty one
Referring to a song that has lost its appeal and relevance
Cuz it feels alright
Because it brings some sense of comfort or satisfaction

Version of reality
What I won't tell you, well
What I won't confess to you, well,
I'll probably never tell myself, cuz I've

Got everything to think about
Have so much to contemplate
Cs time runs out
As time keeps ticking away
I need a vibe, just tell me
I require a feeling or atmosphere, simply inform me
What I'm really supposed to do, should I
The true course of action I should take, should I
Grab a guitar and just play myself
Take hold of a guitar and express myself
Right on out
In a straightforward and honest manner
