Cold Breaks
I feel my breath take
I waste away
Too many things to do
I've got a thousand things to say
Coat sinks
I watch world shrink
Shipwrecked and dazed
Nothing to do but
Fall down and pray
Cause I've been fighting off demons with all my time
And I swaer I'd go back if I thought I could
And I've been tearing through events that I can't unwind
And I'm trapped here, and I'm trapped here
Fitting as it seems
The bridge on Henly St.
Falling down like this weight on top of me
I can't compete
with the strength itakes to keep with these big lies
and these little things
Ships pass
I watch my soul sink
Sharkes swim through the wreckage that engulfs me
Steer towards the rocks
Ignore the lighthouse
light up a cigarettee
and watch your ship go down
(Chant)
I'm walking down the street
Where do I go?
Does this reflect who I am inside
There's no balance here
There's no closure
All the sins I try to hide
They tip the scales
Straight to the ground
I'm walking down the street
To anywhere
And I don't think it matters today
I'll follow my own feet
To anywhere
I won't fake a smile for anyone today
Another freedom in a sea of pain
It's days like this I've got nothing to gain
It's something like how the sidewalk scrapes the sole of my shoe
On a windy day
We built this empire with our own two hands
We were brave enough
It was our turn
Out on the hill where we sat as kids
We lit the fire
And we let it burn
You know we can't stay here
I wish we could
You know we don't belong here
Oh why I just stay
Why do you let past dreams get the best of you
Oh I wish I could just let go
Sever ties with what's been holding
But I've been friends with these ties for so long
Stop breaking down
You swore you had my back
Stop wearing out
Oh I wish I could, Oh I wish I could
(Chant)
I'm walking down the street
Where do I go?
I'm walking down the street
To anywhere
And I don't think it matters today
I'll follow my own feet
To anywhere
I won't fake a smile for anyone today
