So Says I

I can't shy away from this
 though I really wish I could
 I think it'd do us all some good
 I have every intention of going where I go
 left, left, right, left
 Sometimes I miss it
 There, I said it
 But I'm not a broken heart, I just wanted to be alone
 I'm not a sinking ship, I'm just testing the water
 I'm not a lost soul, I'm just wandering around
 So says I
 We shed a snake skin
 This life is dripping in, I'm going to trace it to the source
 That life is fading out
 The cost of evolution is the once familiar
 I don't really miss it
 There, I said it
 I'm not a passenger, I'm just along for the ride
 I'm not a phantom limb, it's just sometimes I get the itch
 I'm not a lost soul, I'm just wandering around
 So says I
 This is how we turn into ourselves
 Carry on, carry on
 I'm not a broken heart, I just wanted to be alone
 I'm not a sinking ship, I'm just testing the water
 I'm not a lost soul, I'm just wandering around
 So says I
