311 - Syntax Error

I know I should have stopped it
Any other day I'd know better but
Now I'm laid out on the floor
I know I kinda dropped it
Should have written it down in a letter
But now there's one foot out the door

All the words in disarray
Lost in translation
Errors just replayed

I didn't know it was like that
Left field and way off from center
And now there's just one great divide
There's no doubt, wait, strike that
Off conversation is splintered
Oh well Oh hell at least I tried

All the thoughts I can't relay
Have no explanation
Prefix just displayed

Spell check
Streamline
Clarified
Cut copied pasted
And erased it
But I replaced it
Outline
Researched
Summarized
Paraphrased refrained
And then deleted
Now I'm defeated

Good intention's gone astray
Locked in frustration
Thought lines in decay

311 Lyrics

album: "Mosaic" (2017)

Too Much To Think

Wildfire

The Night Is Young

Island Sun

Perfect Mistake

Extension

Inside Our Home

'Til The City's On Fire

Too Late

Hey Yo

Places That The Mind Goes

Face In The Wind

Forever Now

Days Of '88

One And The Same

Syntax Error

On A Roll
