The workin' days were propping the bar quietly erasing the week |
|
And I was in a corner booth thinking, pretending to read |
|
About the impossibility of one to love unconditionally |
|
The words that we drive into the ground |
|
Their repetition starts to thin their meaning |
|
Then everything got frighteningly still |
|
As they entered and intersected the floor |
|
And I tried to choke my stare at the perfection that others would kill for |
|
But all of the parts are the same on every face, few variables change |
|
The differences pale when compared to the similarities they share |
|
Finally there is clarity and there is purpose after all |
|
But every night ends the same as I'm collapsing once more by your side |
|
Finally there is clarity, this tiny life is making sense |
|
And every drop numbs the both of us, but I alone am staggering |
