It’s a pipeline,It’s not the main line, no
It’s a side route and a substitute, not a picture perfect match
It’ s memory of some good times , half remembered flashback hell yeah distorted picture of the way it might have been
It’s all nonsense,Its all bullshit, Its all mud and shame
and a total lack of glory ,all this madness
Its a pipeline, come on and surf the pipeline
pick the wave that you want and ride it out into the limelight
careful, careful, careful

Catch your breath and try to hold it, Pull it in and feel the glow
Catch yourself as you stutter and feel the truth about to go
take it for all its worth, you seem to only want more
sell it if you possibly can, the shelf life is only short
make it to the end of the line, be proud for just surviving
you sure are such a curious soul as the facts die a silent death
Watch your step and try to be steady, it’s easier said than done
As you fall just remember the feeling of vulnerability
Speak your mind and be resilient, Stand by your words
though they’re false, fly your flag as an impostor
Cause you really got nothing else, what you need is truth
its hard to face the truth, just a little bit of truth
you might need truth

I heard some juicy information
Somebody said that it was true
I can't confirm and I can't deny
Could be the truth but I hope it's a lie
Rumors Rumors Rumors Rumors
I got it straight from a straw man
Who said you're running out of time
The information is unverified
I heard it through the grapevine
Rumors Rumors Rumors Rumors
I don't know what's true anymore
I think I've had my fill
Too many people working overtime
Down at the rumor mill
Too many people working overtime
Down at the rumor mill

you wanted a favor, so you're wearing a grin
you came as a neighbor, is that how you're gonna spin it
you brought me a beer and we talked about The Game
how are the kids? and what about that rain?
I thought to myself, oh no, thanks for not asking me that
you wanted a favor, quit being coy
come right out and say it, don’t beat around the bush boy
did you need some money but can’t pay me back
i just smiled and said ,thanks for not asking me that
thanks for not asking me... that
thanks for not asking me...no, not that

i’m coming in high, i’m coming in hot, only two hours left
and it seems like a lot, been up for so long, seen the sun change directions, i felt excitement at first ,now i just gotta piss
gotta make it to the rest stop, get another beer
maybe buy a lottery ticket, then get the hell out of here
i’m driving too fast but not fast enough
i’ve got a radar detector because I don’t want to get caught
i;ve got a pound and a half and i already owe that dude
so I gotta stay up late until get back to the suburbs
gotta make it to the exit, i;m gonna do my best
gotta make it to the rest stop, i hope it’s coming up next
i’m coming in tired and i’m all fed up, the full moon is out
and i;ve still got 30 minutes left, been on this road so many times before, i hope this is it, i can’t take it anymore
gotta make it to the rest stop

I had a suspicion, that I would start choking when prompted to act
It was my full intention to do what I could to get over the hump
I don’t blame myself but I probably should for the failings that I have wrought, i can look back and wonder what, I could have done, but who cares? I can do it, no need to mess up, yeah, I can do it
Just watch me go now

once I was wonderful, now I’m being difficult, defined by my loyalty
now you never know what I might do, it’s not a question
it’s mystery, did I break a vein in my head, its sort of looks that way
what did the doctor say, he said “serious and major. “man, you got off lucky” once I was wonderful ,now I’m being difficult, defined by my empathy, now you never know what I might say
it’s not a question, it’s mystery

i’m stuck in this room, i’m stuck in this class room
my mind’s playing tricks, i’m floating and i’m spinning around
and now just for kicks, i thought i would travel
to a place far away, a place that doesn’t even exist
where did i go?, what is this space?, its feels like a fizz
’m wedged in between, a sponge and a soft spot
i wiggled around, i think i might just finally be free
i found after all the space i inhabit, the one just for me
a place that doesn’t even exist, where did i go?
what is this space?, its feels like a fizz
where did i go?, what is this space?, i’m caught in a tizzy

if you get it, get it good, hit it with a baleen hammer
if you get it, get it now, let’s move forward through this dark night
when you bring it, bring your best, rise to the moment is all we ask
if you let it, let its rip, you’re at the top of your game
when you hit it, hit it hard, there’s no choice let’s go together
hold it, hold it tight, it’ll be forever and there’s no end
oh oh oh, oh oh oh
