You're my pal, I'm your friend, together we can patch up our loose ends nI'm as close as I can get but you're so far away it's that I must confessnThat I've tried to numb my heart stop it beating before it startsnBut I can't win I can't climb nThe barbed wire fence to make a start and untangle my mind nnIs this the path I chose? Because It's reserved for those nWho spend their lives swimming in a goldfish bowlnI need to numb the past but it seems too much a tasknTo smash the glass and throw those gills awaynnIf we're alone I can't stand to see you basking on top of my thronenBut still I'll start to hear you breathe my name you know you're eating up my heartnnAnd I'm drinking from your cup but It needs filling up nBefore long I'll be crawling to your doornI need to fill my lungs with air be convinced that I don't care nI'll kick myself until I'm forced to linger upnnTurn the light on show the waynDon't out myself of everydaynAnd tell myself I'm someone elsenand close my ears to what they saynnBecause I'm wrong you're rightnI don't need you to tell me when I can hear it every nightnDisconnect myself from the throngnAnd I'm counting this last time because nIt's the last time I'll belong and I belongnnOnce I stopped and looked behind and turned to salt and no method could I findnTo enjoy the here and now it's left me swinging and to stop it don't know hownnWell it's you I got to knownAnd we watched this friendship grownIt just takes a fool like me to light it and watch it burn nAnd I can't say your name and I won't forget my shame nI'm not here drowned my phone for goodnnBurn the bridge that crossed your moat nIt's the only way I'll floatnIn you I find something divinenBut I'll just look from far awaynnBecause I'm wrong your rightnI don't need you to tell me when I can hear it every nightnDisconnect myself from the throngnAnd I'm counting this last time because nIt's the last time I'll belong and I belongnnI once belonged n
