Skate

It took a turn at 5pm I wanted so bad for you to come home Laying back and remembering How we danced and we laughed and we let it all go And I can see it all so damn clear like it was yesterday As I'm sitting on the floor all by myself No please don't tell me the same old stories About how everything works out None of your guidance is reassuring Cuz I know that you're right I look outside, the leaves are falling Summer's gone, and I'm left stalling How'd it pass so fast? I'm wondering Was it all a dream or something? Did you have to be so honest? Has it been this long since August? And all the things I gave up for this I'll stay inside and just ignore them all To you, I'm turning into this again A jealous stray that you won't let in Outside, I'll burn another day undone Spin around in circles 'til I find someone To the world, get up and put the lights all on Been in bed for far too long Call me what you will Call me what you will No please don't tell me the same old stories About how everything works out None of your guidance is reassuring Cuz I know that you're right I look outside, the leaves are falling Summer's gone, and I'm left stalling How'd it pass so fast? I'm wondering Was it all a dream or something? Did you have to be so honest? Has it been this long since August? And all the things I gave up for this I'll stay inside and just ignore them all Yeah just ignore them all You take it from within And feed it to the wolves My superficial skin You're beautiful and gold You take it from within And feed it to the wolves My superficial skin You're beautiful and gold Taken for a night and then Stayed here for a day too long Give up for us and them Give up on what you found Feeling like a slight of hand Turned back and saw nothing wrong Is it time for what they say?
