Parasite - Period of Change Lyrics

Got to get through this period of change
It's not gone as expected but I can't admit I'm wrong
Cos it's not right for my image then I won't be here for long

Don't label it "tough times"
Inconsistent, deranged
Don't admit it's a failure
It's a "period of change"
It's a "period of change"
It's a "period of change"
It's a "period of change"

Don't want the blame
For this period of change
If I bailed out and composed myself with dignity and tact
My replacement only highlights all the competence I lacked

Don't label it "tough times"
Inconsistent, deranged
Don't admit it's a failure
It's a "period of change"
It's a "period of change"
It's a "period of change"
It's a "period of change"

Sitting in the garage eating chicken wings
Feeling old and tired
Like the desiccated arachnid crawling up the wall
Made it a third of the way and then expired

It's not a "tough time", it's a "period of change"
It could take fifty years and progression may be small
Jesus, I'll be in my eighties if I'm even here at all.

Don't label it "tough times"
Inconsistent, deranged
Don't admit it's a failure
It's a "period of change"
It's a "period of change"
It's a "period of change"
It's a "period of change"

Don't say "on a journey"
Be consistently vague
Don't admit it's a failure
It's a "period of change"
It's a "period of change"
It's a "period of change"
It's a "period of change"
