lyrics

Lying awake in the ditch I dig
Run it back up the stairs
Riding through the warm old fog thats tangled me for years
I've been stuck on something
been gone so long
Hold me in its arms and give me flesh and blood

Stepping in the mud again
splash my back time to pretend
I am on and I will win
In my youth and In my head

I just wanna be like you
never caught between green and blue
seem to lose the happenstance
cut my teeth on ritalin

You say you don't know but you tell me anyway
You say you cant go but I see you there
I'm almost crying
I'm almost crying

so just tell what did I say
I just wanna redo
Thought that you were my friends
but I never see you
so just tell what did I say
I just wanna redo
Thought that you were my friends
(You say you don't know but you tell me anyway
You say you cant go but I see you there
I'm almost crying
I'm almost crying )

These things take time
take my time
take my time
If its a part of who you are
don't know the words but I got the scars
wanna step back like who are you
all on my own with nothing to prove
If its a part of who you are
don't know the words but I got the scars
wanna step back like who are you
all on my own with nothing to lose
