sat around and checked my watch
as I waited for the midnight hour
and I thought about the things
that happened
on this day that began thirteen years ago
I started on this journey
I started on this jo
She puts on the light
She looks in the mirror
And cries to herself
It's becoming much clearer that
He's not where he says
He's not hanging with her
She flicks off the light
And she turns with a shiv
It's the kind of day that starts bad in the
morning
When I wake up to the feeling that nothing is
quite right
But circumstances forces me to make a smile
And so I head up to my destination feeling all

by the end of the day
i'll turn and run again
right back to the girl
who's put me where i've been
feeling down turned around
so dizzy that when i get out
i just run right back in
it makes no sense
For me a case
of regrets
when it comes to things like this
as I look back
I wonder if
if I would have let it slip
that I like her
and she like me
well now i guess we'll never see
and i'm feeling s
the time is drawing near
for me to pack away my things
and leave this life behind
and all the things i've known
and all that i've benn taught
are only in my memory
and i'm not sure
i want to go
awa
Is this another love song? well it might just
sound that way
About some girl who dumped me and how I found my
way
Well this time it’s different, because
I’m not coming back
I’m not
packing my bags and heading out on my own making
choices that will shape the future days I have to
come and I could choose the easy road but I have
to be strong cause I don't want to spend a
lifetime knowi
take me out
drag my face across pavement
and make it look wrinkled and old
cause that's how I feel today
spent out like change
you toss out at toll booths
it adds up when you drive alot
and you hate
She walks down the sidewalk wondering
Lost in thought as the cars they pass her by
Wondering whose life this is and why
All of the things she had moved on
There's things she cannot quite understand

If I died some time soon would you come to my
funeral?
Would anyone be there?
If I needed some backup, would I be deserted?
Does anyone care?
Cuz' in these times
When I'm alone,
all I have to do is s
I missed what she said
Did I hear her wrong?
I can’t seem to have
Anything last that long
Or am I a jerk?
With no sense of what
Makes them warm up?
My life boils down to what I am
Living my
If the world should end, and we both die tonight.
I'd have no more time to say the things I might.
Had I known that this last hour would come so
soon.
I'd have spent the last year speaking just to
you.
Pin this one last
because it was the hardest
Yet it meant the most to me at the same time
Feelings are tough to explain
when what i feel is bigger than any word that i
can find

So i wrote y
when i cant see you
your always near

i keep you there
safely hidden
for all those times
when nothing else at all
can get me by
billfold out
deep inside
amongst ID and credit car
Eyes open as the light streams through the
curtain
only half closed and the kink in my neck
and sleeping in my clothes again

three hours and one ticket later
after plying in a barn
in a used auto lot
where it was so cold
i could not

we headed back to our hometown
where we'll dream of better thing

Cause wouldn't that be easier
than how you're going about it now
Cause I know you're trying hard
