Looking into the mirror I feel a shake in my knees
How my eyes have sunken in how I’ve aged since my leave
of absence from where I grew up and knew all the streets
that we would drunkenly drive all careless and free
oh dumb those ideas were try to plan out our live
and I got to the point to pack it up and leave it behind
and I’m staring at the clock as if I’m keeping up with time
but this won’t kill me but I’m nowhere close to feeling fine.
And I cracked my knuckles on a brick wall
that I punched as I was begging you to stay
Cracked my neck on a restless pillow
that’s meant for your head and not mine to lay
And I cracked my back trying to get comfortable
on the side you used to sleep in my bed
Cracked my heart on liquor bottles
when I was home alone and trying to mend.
And I’m shrinking out of my clothes little by little each second
and I haven’t eaten in a week, but no, I’m not starving
I’ve been saving up from all of these early morning commutes
and I’ve been thinking about coming to visit really soon
but I’m afraid all my friends have forgotten about me
because I don’t get no letters and my phone it never rings
maybe they’re just too busy and don’t have time for someone else
but I’m done lying - yeah I’m don’t lying to myself
