It's been on hell of a day
I slept the quarter past four
In the morning, and I found that I
Can't be alone
But I'm always alone
When I'm stuck in my brain
The writing's on the wall
There's nothing else to be said
All the lies that I've feared
Become the skies and the stars
And the pain that I feel
Seems like it's so far
It's been so hard to speak
Everything I said was wrong
I wish I could take back my words
And fall
But I feel so alive
When I get out of my head
The world is sprawling so far
There's too much to be lead
All the pain that I've felt
Could be worth something now
If only I were in control
I'd let my voice come out.
I'm losing track of the years
It's hard to tell from on the floor
But if we count by bottles, then I'll safely say
Too long
And I'm so stuck in my ways
That I'd swear time is still
I'm just watching the tape
As it plays on the reel
And even though my mind plays
My hands could not reach
All the places I've been
Or the thought of the kill
I wish that I weren't so selfish
I wish that I could have helped him
Or helped you, oh God
If I had known I'd be this way
I'd be all but the same, who am I kidding
I wish I knew what to say
