Morning Zoo

I look myself in the eye

I wake up every morning

I kill my thoughts with a knife

Then blow a kiss to the silence

How long does it take

To find the peace that I want?

And how long must I wait

To decide that it's over? Well, I don't know

The morning zoo is alive

But I just keep getting smaller

It's my decision to lie

To settle down by the fire

But how long does it take

To find the peace that I want?

And how long must I wait

To decide that it's over? Well, I don't know

Talk to myself all the time

Waiting on the long train

The Devil's right behind

Stuck in the passing lane

How long does it take

To find the peace that I want?

And how long must I wait

To decide that it's over and done?

And how long does it take

To find the peace that I want?

And how long must I wait

To decide that it's over? Well, I don't know

I got a piece of the pie

I could say when if I wanted
