lyrics

State of the Union (R. Landar)

You called me up to tell me that
You had reached the end
You robbed my mind , you robbed my time
But we can still be friends
You said you reached the breaking point
You said you had enough
Enough to see you had enough of me
And more then enough of us
That's the state of the union

I think back to this time last year
When you first heard the call
You ran to me, I slowed you down
You can't run before you crawl
At times we fit like a hand in a glove
But other times I'd see
Your constant change from day to day
There's no consistency
That's the state of the union

I saw you smile the other night
You stood out from the crowd
You moved your lips, I could not hear
The room was way too loud
You seemed to want to try again
You know we've lost the spark
I want brightness, I want highs
You offer lows and darks
That's the state of the union

We're living the grand illusion
In a world of mass confusion
Brought on by self delusion
That's the state of the union
That's the state of the union
That's the state of the union
