Lyrics
Staying up late to put yourself through it all again
Struggling late at night, enduring hardships once more
Can't phone a friend
Unable to seek help or support
Add to the hall of short falls
Adding to a collection of failures and near misses
And close calls
Instances where disaster was narrowly avoided
That was way back when
Referencing a distant past
And now I'm
Currently
Falling apart, confused from the start everyday
Feeling broken and bewildered since the beginning of each day
Can't change my mind, take back time, hit rewind
Unable to reverse decisions or go back in time
But who says
Questioning authority or convention
Where is there left to go?
Feeling lost without direction
A look tossed, the cross is in your eyes, your demise
Noting a particular expression or gesture indicating a downfall
And if I could
Expressing a desire or hypothetical situation
Keep from feeling so proud and have you around
Wishing to be less arrogant and have someone's presence
To say out loud
Expressing the willingness to vocalize something
I would
Expressing a hypothetical action or desire
Should I find a way to store away all of the
Contemplating hiding unresolved parts of oneself
Parts of me that I don't have figured out or maybe I'll
Considering adopting an appropriate attitude or behavior
Strike the proper tone
Deciding to manage independently
Make out on my own
Confidently moving forward without uncertainty
Without a doubt
Questioning the purpose or significance of everything
What's it all about
Feeling out of place as a secondary participant in someone else's life
Too foreign being player two in your game
Disregarding differences or changes in oneself
Ignoring that I'm not the same
Recalling the earlier expression or gesture indicating downfall
A look tossed, the cross is in your eyes, your demise
Expressing a desire or hypothetical situation (repeated)
And if I could
Desiring to avoid feeling overly proud and longing for someone's presence (repeated)
Keep from feeling so proud and have you around
Expressing the wish to redo everything and maintain a friendship
To say out loud
Expressing the willingness to vocalize a desire if possible
If I could do it all again and keep a friend
Expressing the wish to change past actions and retain a friend
I would
Stating a desire or hypothetical situation (repeated)
