lyrics

When did the time come
When all was strange
And the lies told
Protected my name
Where even how I spend my days
Grows larger as my shoes stay the same
I've got a room now, not a house
And some bullshit, I could do without
The debt hangs on my wall
Next to posters that teenage hands had bought
I dream of gasoline and a thousand miles
And bar rooms and strangers' smiles
A rock n' roll dream turned low
Content with simply just to go

But I believe
That someday I'll see
How it all just bleeds
Into the days that escape
Not the months or the years we thought it just ok to wait

Well I'm always sincere, but I'm not always honest
A surgeon's hand for the lonely among us
When tried I will tie my tongue
Defend intentions for damage done
Cause when conscience calls, we'll see our friends
As a tunnel of light for the deeper in
The guiltiest of minds gathers weight from the better times
So in them I'll hope, and in them I'll believe
To let a misstep's print get buried with leaves
Set the fire and watch it burn
Engulf our love and resentments earned
