Educated Guess - Umphrey's McGee

Picked me up

Send me up

Or I won’t make it

I set it down (I saw you)

Turn around

I can’t explain the rest

I filled the top

At least I thought

But now these pieces won’t connect

He didn’t know he was the victim of a crime

Or even know it’s that particular time

Try to explain but it didn’t quite line up

I really doubt he even made a connection

He missed his sister when he saw her reflection

Got turned around and went the wrong direction

He’s barely here right now

But manages to talk somehow

His every word is slowing down

Come up for air I need to breathe more pollution

You didn’t factor in your own contribution

Twist it around until you find a solution

Overreacted when they gave you what was less than

What you expected you’re an educated guess then

Try to retract it when you stated your profession

He’s feeling faster now

So asking him the question how

Is all he knows is upside down?

There’s no need to

Over think this through

I feel fine

Let me lie right here

From the beginning it was all too revealing

Caught in the middle did you know what you were stealing

And in a minute you’re only running from the feeling

You’re running places make your own translations

Bury your face into your own imagination

And start to worry about the wrong calculation

He’s barely hanging on

With no idea that something’s wrong

His every word just waits too long

I’ll concede to

What I need from you

I feel fine

Let me lie down here

One last promise

Before I’ll fall

I might say things I don’t recall

You can’t forget 'em all
