Calm me down when i really need you around...
but don't forget the emptiness of this fucking town
i was high, higher than i've ever been
i thought i saw you dying from within
i could fly but really don't think i should
unless i start, and try to take off from the ground
don't try to save me
somewhere i got lost along the way
don't try to talk to me
i won't believe a goddamn word you say
tell me you love me
whatever gets you through your rotten day
i haven't slept in years
and i remember how lonely i am
everytime you look at me...
say goodbye to everything you've been dreaming of
but don't forget the man
the man you used to love...
when i look into the mirror
i see looking back at me
a tired, withered soul
no older than twenty-three
i've got scars all over my body
and blisters all over my feet
my reputation's seen better days
and i hate everyone i meet
but everything is fine
we'll talk about it some other time
i know you all have your doubts
but it's just something i should figure out
on my own...
ever since you came around
you'd kill everything you see
if the eyes are really windows to the soul
well then you killed something inside of me
and then you kicked me while i was down
i was so much happier when you weren't around
and if it'll help you to finally move on
i'll pack up and i'll move out of this town
i'm sure of it...
your love is just another warm body
eventually it's going to rot
despite everything good that you said that i lack
you're still the best friend i've got
so when you see me i won't know what to say
this sort of shit happens to me everyday
when you don't need what you don't know you can have
i suppose my life's a little something like that
but i'm used to it
and i am constantly reminded that one day i will die
so it's no wonder why i'm such a fucking paranoid guy
when we both lay down to sleep at the end of the night
you'll continue suffering and i'll be all right...
