Wait for this place to be the only thing thats keeping me from learning to see That nothing will carry me I’ll force myself to stand upon my own two feet.
And its a funny feeling, My thoughts are torn apart. Start out fresh somewhere new but nothing there compares to where you started from. These past 6 years had only just begun. My last resort is my only one
And i dont think i can break my own fall again. I’ll take this helping hand, it takes my only friend. And i dont think i can convince myself again That not much has changed since then Aside from where we’ve been

So please dont take this song so lightly. Since i lost what i cant see I hate myself for thinking freely And if anyone does ask, ive gone to hell with everything i have Since i lost my faith in self alone i cant depend on anyone
And i dont think i can break my own fall again I’ll take this helping hand, it takes my only friend And i dont think i can prove to myself again That not much has changed since then Aside from where we’ve been
Overseas while you’re back West Sleeping off the restlessness Everything will be fine Just gotta keep my mind on your bed And your bed on my mind I’m so sore, from sleeping on the floor I never see your face anymore Maybe I’ll come back around I’m so sore, from sleeping on the floor I want what we had before Maybe I’ll come back around
It’s no fun to play this song So I’m done said I got it all wrong But I’m sure everything I did before doesn’t really matter anymore It’s no fun to play this song So I’m done I know got it all wrong So I’m sure everything I did before doesn’t really matter anymore
You might as well pack up all your stuff and move into my head I wish I could dispose of all these thoughts and just be numb instead I wish you would stop running from your problems and run to me instead Black and blue, Eyes blood shot red while she’s past out in her bed This song is for William This song is for William Maybe I can make you change your decision by using all the ink in this pen Maybe I can make you change your decision by using all the ink in this pen Maybe I can change you
All my friends have gone away. Sailing vessels leaving the bay For the best four years and the promise of pay. But they don’t even know what they’re chasing. Greater men have tried and failed. And all this time I thought that I’d stay. As a ghost who would haunt this mountain. And all this time I thought that I’d stay. Alive in the ground digging out my coffin. Time was short on courts and pavement. We knew we had to leave. But did I make the most of every day. And did I give to not receive? Are there any words to better express the full extent of my grief? It hits home when you’re not home. There’s no space to grow, and all this time not much to show. And all this time I thought that I’d stay As a ghost who would haunt this mountain. Maybe I should hold my tongue And do my best to live with the stress that’s mounting. I never thought, I never thought a bond was something we lacked I got to find another way to keep myself intact I understand we all went away so we could have the stories to share when we’re back. Try to pass the same old shit to get ahead and start your paper stack. I never thought, I never thought a bond was something we lacked. Guess some of us just needed a change to heal the bones that we cracked. It takes four years away from your friends. To make you all forget how much time you spent.
Before you twist your tongue, No there’s no chance at all. Came here against my will, And my will’s tested strong.
Until now, I know we’ve never met But I don’t wanna talk and I’m already upset. That you’ll meet your demise in a drunken man’s bed. Take another pull to make certain you forget.
And to think that you’re somebody’s daughter. Away at college not getting smarter.
Everything changes when all the lights in the room are as low as you, But don’t trip you’ll sober up soon. Regain an honest perspective as you puke on the floor. Can’t remember why your knees are so cut up and sore.
And you’ll be hung over all day. (all day! all day) You’ll be hung over all day. (all day! all day) You’ll be hung over all day. (all day! all day) You’ll be hung over all day. (all day! all day) You’ll be hung over all day. (all day! all day)
I can’t believe I always thought I would be there for you. For now I’ll learn and settle for less. Shut my eyes and get some rest. Feel the pulse beneath this sunken chest. And maybe one day I can be there for you.
