We Were Promised Jetpacks

There was a hand that I couldn't shake
A black silhouette of a slithering snake
It was never enough
Enough is enough
Try to keep the pieces like maintaining a buzz
There was a cloud that wouldn't break up
all the sunlight out and keeping it dark
I could never sit back
I could never relax
If you could cut the tension it would split into halves
There was a calm that preceded the storm
I'm in the brace position and I'm raising alarms
It was never enough
Enough is enough
I'm hanging in and we're explained causing a fuzz
There was a code that I couldn't break
It's getting more frustrating for me each passing day
I could never sit back
I could never relax
Imagine the elation when it's finally had

Bright minds think alike
Fools smile and nod their heads
It's all pretense

There was a sum that was more than it's parts
We should have stuck together but we've crumbled apart
It was never enough
Enough is enough
I'm standing in a ship that's been abandoned and lost
Out in the open
You sit in the room
Blowing in some trumpet and I'm still in the mood
I could never sit back
I could never relax
I've got to keep my eyes before that subtle attack
There was a hand that I couldn't shake
A black silhouette of a slithering snake
It was never enough
Enough is enough
Try to keep the pieces like maintaining a buzz

A dormant volcano rose
Shelter as it's Bright minds think alike
Fools smile and nod their heads
It's all pretense
I love her
