I'm still smoldering
From dream extinguishing
I bet it all on fire and it rained a thousand days
Sometimes I wonder how it got this way
Using that footstool to look through these eyes
So wander-proof
There I go, sending myself down the wrong road
Reaching for my coat
Boots trek through
Pounds of snow to be removed
From city streets
Now glowing blue
Spin into a room now standing still
I'm weaving through hush words of me and you
These voices louder and louder finally cutting through
The only peace in my head
Left hanging here by a thread
I'm giving up and I'm giving in to a mind made up of penitence
I'm more calm than expected
You can check these dry palms
After all these years I've never done so many takes
My six, my twelve
All around the clock
Give me something to alleviate the searching
'Cause time has never been one of my...
Time has never been one of my luxuries...
I see you looking at me
Through the cracks in the crowd you peek
Through the eyes of another man waiting to be your f*cking everything
You see what I've become
Two wrecks of a man, undone
You want to say what's on your mind
These few years I've been gone
You're more calm than expected
As he stares so innocent
Straight into the face of nostalgic consequence
So sip your drink
You're stirring memories till we're weak in the knees
And you cut breaks down a one way street
So sip your drink
You're stirring memories till we're weak in the knees
And I know you wouldn't hesitate
