lyrics

Save me
I can’t be satisfied lately
Patience is hard to find
Well how can I be strong when you say that
“It’s harder than I thought to go on?”

So we stand by
Watching time like a slow fight
Bruising our better sides
The damage slowly forms
Like ashes of the houses in the town you were born

Watch you from a distance always waiting for a sign
Bury me underground with your ghost of better times
Read me my thoughts
Tell me I’m wrong
Show me I can be strong
Or bury me underground with your ghost of better times

Well I spoke of everything that burns
And I choke on every single word
With self pity and whiskey breath
I take a drive in silence to forget who I am

Everything is different in the real world
Wrenching my bones ‘til they’re weak
Everything is different in the real world
When you aren’t here with me
