The Path of Least Resentment

from Memory Device by Stephen Rippy

/

lyrics

Wake-up call sounds like the end of the world
So, like it or not, you’re moving
Trying to shake off the years
That appeared from nowhere
Seems like the greater the distance becomes
From home, the more at home you feel
All those doubts can dissipate
With a change in the air

Done with the limitations
Done with the expectations
So it’s not what you designed
Get off your chest what’s on your mind:

The path of least resentment leads away from here

Same old same old on a different night
Well, like it or not, you joined in
Trying to outrun the years
That appeared from nowhere
There may be no answers in a glass
But it always seems worth looking
While promises dissipate
With the smoke in the air

They want more than you can give
They’ve taken more than you have lived
Keepers of a different kind
Get off your chest what’s on your mind:

The path of least resentment leads away from here

GLINTS OF DUST IN AN EVENING SUNBEAM
ENGINES HUM OUT A LAZY THEME
YOU’RE WAY UP IN THE AIR TONIGHT
IT’S ALL UP IN THE AIR TONIGHT
SOMEHOW EVERYTHING WAS LESS THAN IT SEEMED

Summer of your discontent -
You don’t need help to take that hint
Something lost, something to find
Get off your chest what’s on your mind:

The path of least resentment leads away from here
