The first time I left it didn’t end well
The second time I cannot tell
Not even to my family after
It was a joke but I didn’t hear laughter
So I settled my home in your shadow
Keep my feet in the shallow
Waters to keep me from drowning
It’s a sad story but I don’t hear crying
I’ve got wanderlust
But I’ll stay at home
For fear of spending life alone
I’ll stay at base
Just in case
You go somewhere
I speak to you with subtle hope
That someday you can help me cope
With the inability to try again… to try again
Every word’s an avalanche
Every movement’s a landslide
My speech stutters I hold my breath
I won’t lie I’m scared to death
Each sight of you is a monument
Every view is a masterpiece
I want to see you on your bad side
I want to see you at your worst
I’ve got wanderlust
But I’ll stay at home
For fear of spending life alone
I’ll stay at base
Just in case
You go somewhere
I speak to you with subtle hope
That you can someday help me cope
With the inability to try again
To try again
To try again x2

Slept in my clothes again
Woke up drunk
Stumbled to the bathroom
Head in the toilet bowl
It wasn’t worth it, no it wasn’t worth it
We said we’d make this a night to remember
Just a few beers, now I’m on the deck
We said we’d make this a night to remember
And I’m such a mess, but so are you
Crashed out on the sofa
No motivation, no productivity
It’s back to bed again
Cos I’m so hungover, yeah I’m so hungover
We said we’d make this a night to remember
Just a few beers, now I’m on the deck
We said we’d make this a night to remember
And I’m such a mess, but so are you
Drinks flowing down down now
We’re going downtown now
Taking it up a step
Calling the shots
Calling for shots
Calling for shots

The cracks in the pavement
Not as severed as my heart
You tore it pieces
And that was just the start
I sure have felt heartbreak
But nothing quite like this
You said it was your mistake
But that’s taking the piss
I’m tired of the motions
Always making me feel seasick
You’ve messed with my emotions
Left me buoyant as a brick
Rocked and rolled
And tossed and turned
Played with fire and got burned
You may see it
As a cliche
But fucking carpe diem
I’ll seize this day
The way that you smiled
Just after our first kiss
You said I turn your dials
How many times have you said this
The way that I held you
Said you felt safer arms
Was all this to lure me in
I fell for your charms
Hook line and sinker
Wishful thinker
I tried and tried and it’s all over now
Couldn’t force the words
They would not come out
Please approach cautiously
I’m fragile and I’m torn
Like the treads converse
I’m seriously worn
Out

She puts in no effort
I fear trying too hard
Sometimes I wonder if you want this to work out
It’s tough to be open and to let down my guard
I always put in the time
Some of us have jobs to do
She’s more important to me than money
I just wish he knew
I want to make it better
I want to make it right
I want her to be with me
I need him in my life
I don’t want him/her to change
but I need something more
I wish that we could talk
what are you asking for?
I wish she could be straight with me
I wish I had the words to say
I’m given only half the story
He never listens anyway
What’s she doing when I’m not there?
Does he think of me when he’s alone?
Should I call her now and say I’m sorry?
Should I bite my tongue and pick up the phone?
I want to make it better
I want to make it right
I want her to be with me
I need him in my life
I don’t want him/her to change
but I need something more
I wish that we could talk
what are you asking for?
Now we’re older
Haven’t seen each other for some time
But there you are
and here I am
But that was then and this is now
