Through a foggy shame
A road that leads to nowhere
Not that I have anywhere to go
Or maybe I am running away
Pretty sure I should not stay

There's truth to every story
But some are fantasy
Move me if I've fallen down
We like to hold onto what we make
Faded memories I can't shake

All the time I hear
No more time to steer
Away from troubles that are your past
Some things weren't built to last

Roughed up down and out
Shaken and rather delicate
Drinking up to keep warm
Point at who's to blame
Wishing it were new it's still the same

All the time I hear
No more time to steer
Away from troubles that are your past
Some things weren't built to last

Broken glass, torched black
Scenes from youth, please no more
Do not call, Overcooked
Feel the line, Forsaken

Bored with all of this
Dancin' with life's razor blade
They say just turn the page
Or write yourself a new song
I just need to play along

Sunlight fades today
Find a road to somewhere
Not that I have anywhere to go
Or maybe I am running away
Pretty sure I should not stay

All the time I hear
No more time to steer
Away from troubles that are your past
Some things weren't built to last

Oh these days are just lonely ones
Oh these days we sit and watch trains
Oh these days are just lonely ones
And these days bring terrible pain
And these days I know you know how I feel
How much we'll pay to cry
So we just lie down and think
And try not to say goodbye

Oh these days are just lonely ones
Oh these days there's no morning sun
Oh these days are just lonely ones
And these days you sit all alone
Hear their call-grit your teeth hard
And you draw those blinds closed
Listen to the silence in your room and mind
And try to say goodbye

It doesn't have to be that good
And no one really owns this world
Life isn't over just yet
Until his living is done

Oh these days are just lonely ones
Oh these days we sit and watch trains
Oh these days are just lonely ones
And these days bring terrible pain
And these days I know you know how I feel
How much we'll pay to cry
So we just lie down and think
And try not to say goodbye

Police cars, sirens screaming
There's no way gettin' through
A mob now gathers peering in
Panic stricken
Old boy blue
Shimmering glass on sparkled streets
Newspaper news comin' right for you

Whoa (drag out)
Looks like your world is crumblin' all the way down
Whoa (drag out)
Looks like your world is crumblin' all the way down

Bulldozers
Work til morning
Diggin' up thoughts goin' in and out
For a dream you'd lost long before

Public servants, two time cheats
The sun is setting into stone
On a plan you thought lost long ago

Whoa
Looks like your world is crumblin' all the way down
Whoa
Looks like your world is crumblin' all the way down
Maybe I should scream out loud
Turn these thoughts right into jail
Silver spoon
Here I go
As I watch my life burning on the stove

Whoa
Looks like your world is crumblin' all the way down
Whoa
Looks like your world is crumblin' all the way down

Her eyes are changing colors
But mine have always been brown
She's got soft kisses for others
Been knocked down since time began

A black eye and heart that's true
A black heart looking out for this
I get all jumpy when I look at you
Send my *** to the jailhouse again

I've been lookin' for forever now
In a room full of mirrors for my gal
sure is hell ain't how
I felt all this would go down

Just the thought of you my heart skips
And I think my stomach is doing back flips
I always thought you were the one
I knew I'd always get you back
But now that I'm here you're not mine
So I left again and you still weren't mine
Here I am again, please be mine
I'm so sick of fighting

I've been lookin' for forever now
In a room full of mirrors for my gal
It sure is hell ain't how
I felt all this would go down

She's a southern belle without a drawl
She's a good girl who ain't wearing no bra
She's the only one who has made me cry
She's so mean and I am too sweet

She's got the spirit of a gypsy
And a **** mouth I've never heard
She can't sing  all that well, see
But maybe she'll write a song for me

I've been lookin' forever now
In a room full of mirrors for my gal
It sure is hell ain't how
I felt all this would go down

Your vibrant eyes they cut me to my core
It gets so hard I can't leave you alone any more
You want to be here with your pain
Giving your love to someone who you won't drain

The cause is lost on me
The cause is lost on me
Honey, this cause is lost

There's too many people you used to show
They know where you've been and want to go
All of those secrets you had are now theirs
This place isn't yours, it seems only I care

The cause is lost on me
The cause is lost on me
Baby, this cause is lost

I'm sick of fighting
I'm sick of fighting
I'm sick of fighting for you

There's a place that you'd like to go
But you know you have already been there before
And there's no one left to pick you up
And no one left to fill your cup

That's all my love was for

The cause is lost on me
The cause is lost on me
Baby, this cause is lost

I'm sick of fighting
I'm sick of fighting
I'm sick of fighting with you

When I moved out to Colorado
I had a friend out there
Met my mountain girl, only I was a desperado
She had so much love to share
I took a lot of turns on that snowy mountain side
My heart just wasn't it
I wish it was for you

I tell myself that life just isn't very long
and I keep on moving
even when I hurt someone
It's just not very long

Then I met someone else, someone new
I very rarely got my rest
I stayed so high with you
I drank from your cup and did my best
You weren't ready
Going too deep
Nothing fit my soul
You needed lightness
All you got was something heavy

You tell yourself that life just isn't very long
and you keep on moving
even when you hurt someone
It's just not very long

Still looking for direction
This whole thing felt like balloons once
Maybe one day I'll strike gold
I know I will
Strike gold

Striking gold
I need someone (something?) to believe in
Someone to hear my voice
I looked at religion
But they don't give much of choice
I keep writing my own verses
And praying up above
Am I exactly where I am supposed to be
Looking for the one I love?

When the sun starts to show
that's when I know
I'm in trouble now
Oh man, I'm in trouble now

I smashed your flat screen TV
I let all your animals go free
I'm seeing double
and beggin' for trouble

Used to go to church back in the day
Now I don't feel welcome no more
Used to go to church on back in the day
Now I just sit outside and shout

Wipe my nose and steady my leanin'
I lied all about what I was thinkin'
Maybe I'll make it to mornin'
Just lookin for some trouble to get in

When the sun starts to show
that's when I know
I'm in trouble now
Oh man, I'm in trouble now

Used to go to church back in the day
Now I don't feel welcome no more
Used to go to church back in the day
Now I just sit outside and shout
