Maintain Consciousness

Relient K · Mmhmm [2004]

Our concentration

it contains a deadly flaw

Our conversations

change from words to

Blah, blah, blah

We took prescription drugs

but look how much good that did

Well I think I had a point

but I just got distracted



Cause lately it just seems to me

like we've got the letters A.D.D.

branded into our mentality

we simply can't focus

on anything



Because it's

17, 18, 19 routine

and here at 23 it's

the same old me

and the one thing

in the moment

that we all happen to like

will only very temporarily

kinda break the cycle

of the double-edged sword

of being lazy and being bored

we just want more

and more and more

'til it's all we can afford



to keep our eyes open

for just one more day

to keep on hoping

that we'll stumble on a way

to keep our minds open

for just one more day

cause it's completely up to us

to maintain consciousness



well no one can possibly

listen to this

more than 4 reps

is just monotonous

we're losing interest

losing interest

losing interest



Cause

17, 18, 19 routine

and here at 23 it's

the same old me

and the one thing

in the moment

that we all happen to like

will only very temporarily

kinda break the cycle

of the double-edged sword

of being lazy and being bored

we just want more

and more and more

until it's all we can afford



to keep our eyes open

for just one more day

to keep on hoping

that we'll stumble on a way

to keep our minds open

for just one more day

cause it's completely up to us

to maintain consciousness



keep our eyes open

for just one more day

keep on hoping

that we'll stumble on a way

to keep our minds open

for just one more day

cause it's completely up to us

to maintain consciousness
