i'll take a ridevfor one night
filled with stories for these silent days
my breath on the glass
and i'm always waiting
anticipating every move
of how i thought it should have been
visions of the times
when homesick lullabies
they came crashing down
down
for every day
not with you
is it new or lost?
in every way
not like you
they're not like you
all the minds have capsized
from the fury only to be saved
encased by the noise
and the clock is ticking louder,
ticking faster approaching
reassurance was never my game
visions of the times
when homesick lullabies
they came crashing,
they came crashing down
for every day
not with you,
is it new or lost?
in every way
they're not like
they're not like you
no, no, no
they say, "take it for what its worth
its the best for us"
but i know the truth can leave
scars that no one wants to see
tell me everything
that i want and don't want to know about,
for all these things i see
what is it hard to say?
or swallow in the maze
of this solitaire state?
for every day
not with you
is it...
in every way
they're not like you
they're not like you
no, no, no
