I'm leaving loves behind
While finding time to rhyme
Mistakes with what's at stake
No, that's just too contrived
Can I get a little taste of your lips so I feel alive?
Can you offer up the same uncertainty that I define?
Are you up for keeping in touch once a month or twice a year?
Can you handle regret and the lack of will to persevere?
This apathy will haunt me over and over and over
So when will I wake up?
Please fix me, I don't feel a thing
I've got a hand of wish and one of chance
Don't bother, it's enough to get me through it
I close my eyes and roll
A set of loving eyes
I'm sure
Convincing as a shot in the dark could be
I'll keep doing what I love with a stab at integrity
I'm adding water to wine
Pretending I'm not that guy
Oh, oh, I'm cracking jokes all the time
Cover up my steady decline
Can I get a little taste of your lips so I feel alive?
Can you offer up the same uncertainty that I define?
Are you up for keeping in touch once a month or twice a year?
Can you handle regret and the lack of will to persevere?
This apathy will haunt me over and over and over
So when will I wake up?
Please fix me, I don't feel a thing
I've got a hand of wish and one of chance
Don't bother, it's enough to get me through it
Not to get me through it
I close my eyes and roll
A step above the ties
I'm sure
Convincing as I shine
And the dark could be
I'll continue in what I love
With a stare that I take
Receiving
Always
Catch the best
Of me
When I can't say hello
Again
It's just another way to remember
It's just another way
Until I wake up
Please reach me
I don't feel a thing
I've got a hand of wish
And one of chance
Don't bother
It's enough to get me through it
I close my eyes and roll
A step above the ties
I'm sure
Convincing
Convincing as I shine
And the dark could be
I'll continue in what I love
