lyrics

V-1
Nothing’s making sense anymore
Especially when you ain’t involved
Saw my reflection in a glass jar
And found where my planet revolved

I’ve evolved (I’ve evolved)
I was stupid (I was stupid), I was wrong (I was wrong)
I was gone (I was gone)
And you knew it
That’s why you left me on my own,
had to treat me like I’m grown

And I earned it
Now I’m learning
...that hard way
Walking along this causeway
Guess karma dealt me a large plate
Wish that came with a charred steak
Ain’t had a real meal in months
I can feel my palms shake
Hope there’s a road somewhere in these bumps

And I hope that road will lead me to you
And I hope that road will lead me to truth
I don’t know how this all will end
But when we’re face to face maybe then I’ll know what to do.

Chorus

V-2
The days are barren
The nights are full
I run my errands
Then the blinds are pulled

A cup of fear for dinner
A little paranoia for breakfast
Leftovers for lunch
And you already know what the next is

I can’t live like this no more, I gotta find you
Can’t rely on my memories to define you
I’ll put my life on the line to be beside you
And free you, like you freed me

I hope this road will lead me to you
And I hope this road will lead me to truth
I don’t know how this all will end
But when we’re face to face maybe then I’ll know what to do.

Chorus
