lyrics

Took a walk again last night,
pull yourself out of your mind
never does you any good, still somehow you think it should

She went upstairs and got to bed
briefly pretends you never left
you wound up knocking on my door again you're sleeping on the floor

And now you're talking in your sleep, about the way this used to be some sort of unpolluted dream you wouldn't ever dare to leave
But now these buildings look the same, maybe you need to make a change
Once everything was on your side, now you're running out of time.

Now you're laying on the ground
clumsy cage of broken bones
drawing pictures in the sky empty bottle at your side

She never really asked for much
you never really understood
that's just the way it goes I guess you only did the best you could

Now you're feeling left behind by things you never thought would change Remember when you wondered why so many people stayed the same?
You've got a way of looking down, says you're figuring this out, but now she's making up her mind, man you're running out of time

Man you're running out of time.

And all this time for nothing; that's all you're ever gonna say
always counts for something; that's all you're ever gonna hear

Man I don't have an answer, honestly I can't pretend I understand
But you finally have a reason...
You'll leave this place for real
