Shut Down Lyrics

I've been vindicated, I've been loved and hated 
I've been pulled aside and told that life was overrated 
No, I don't believe it, I just can't conceive it 
I can write all night but in the morning I can't read it 
Oh no, don't know what's the matter 
Stuck up on a ladder, scared of coming down 
If I don't get what I want 
And there ain't enough to go around 
I become oblivious to the obvious, just ridiculous 
As I flip the pages, you're a time that ageless 
In between us lies a calm before the storm that rages 
Though we were related, couldn't be separated 
Tried to get ahead but only got decapitated 
If I don't get what you want 
And you don't get what I need 
We become oblivious to the obvious 
Just dysfunctional, 
Shut down, shut down, shut down 
When I can't get keep from getting down 
And I grow tired of hangin' 'round 
I become invisible, unlivable 
Just dysfunctional 
Shut down, shut down, shut down
