|
Put down your things and rest awhile |
|
You know we've both nowhere to go |
|
Yeah, daddy had to crash |
|
He was always halfway there you know |
|
And no, i don't pretend there's any more of that |
|
They say one day, you'll look up and laugh and hear |
|
The same sad echo when you walk |
|
Yeah, the same sad echo when you talk loud and clear |
|
It's the same as the same sad echo around here |
|
I promise you this winter |
|
I will worship you like gold |
|
And ride your train forever |
|
Electric fortunes to be told |
|
And i don't want to question or even celebrate |
|
All the joy you took and then gave back too late |
|
It's the same sad echo when you lie |
|
It's the same sad echo when you try to be clear |
|
It's the same as the same sad echo around here |
|
Well, i woke up right here |
|
In a pool of sweat |
|
With a box of pills and you |
|
Yeah, and i'm gonna keep my head |
|
I'm gonna keep my cool |
|
Oh, i'm so in love with you |
|
Yes and in another world nothing was like this |
|
There may have been a girl |
|
There never was a kiss |
|
The poison came in liquid |
|
She was naked all the time |
|
And no one could explain it |
|
It was all between the lines |
|
And i don't seem to trust anyone no more |
|
It could be faith i'm just not sure |
|
It's the same sad echo every day |
|
Yeah the same sad echo another way |
|
When you call |
|
It's the same as the same sad echo most of all |
|
Well you just got tired |
|
You just gave in |
|
You took it hard |
|
Then you just quit |
|
You let me down |
|
You dropped the ball |
|
You fell on your face most of all |
|
And i don't want to mean anything to you |
|
I don't want to tempt you to be true |
|
It's the same sad echo comin' down |
|
It's the same sad echo all around in my ears |
|
It's the same as the same sad echo around here |
