Rituals

If you get to know me from my photographs
You see me smiling in them all
You might get to thinking that I'm doing well
Everything I want just seems to fall
Into place
'Cause I've been working hard
I can't recall the reasons for my rituals
I'm so spiritual, I just exist
In total bliss
Haven't I come so far?

Oh, sometimes the shadows find a way to make a fist
And each time I noticed, I am still surprised by it
So I send my love to you
I send my love to you

I wish I remembered all my neighbors' names
Someday I'll knock on every door
Instead I sit here wondering at the passers-by
And why no one drops in anymore
Unannounced
That's why I sing lonesome songs
But still it's nice to see you as you're strolling by
Days to come spread across your face
Oh, the race
Certainly has caught up on me
How did we get here?

Oh, sometimes the shadows find a way to make a fist
And each time I noticed, I am still surprised by it
So I send my love to you
I send my love to you
I send my love to you
I send my love to you
