[Verse 1: Protagonist {Kevin Tully}]

Concentrate the whole time, a Facetime call won't do the justice it deserves

And I know it bothers you

When beating 'round the bush, I miss the point you tried to make

And it's a white lie to say it didn’t take


[Chorus: Protagonist {Kevin Tully & Jack Sibilski}]

I know, I know, there must be some between, yeah

Someone to reach and pull the darkness out of me

A bit astounded by own passivity

So I am still in wait for somewhere to hide away


[Verse 2: Protagonist {Kevin Tully}]

The scratching at the soul is a tough one to describe

Blind to a stranger, what do they think they'll find but tea leaves and bottles?

Steel wool to keep the mice from chewing up the model?

Parthenon of modern life


[Chorus: Protagonist {Kevin Tully & Jack Sibilski}]

I know, I know, there must be some between, yeah

Some tires to screech and scare the bullshit out of me

You're in denial of your own mortality, and that right about sums it up

Succinct, the optimist


[Instrumental Break]


[Chorus: Protagonist {Kevin Tully & Jack Sibilski}]

I know, I know, there must be some between, yeah

Someone to listen, shout solutions out at me

Intimidated by the possibility that I could solve it all

With TLC and CBT
