lyrics

Today I'm starting the day like everyone in the town
we all woke up in a daze, last night, we went out.
I left my friends in the crowd, I didn't turn back.
I had to make for the bridge, I had to walk on the tracks.
It's been about one year since I started thinking like this
and struggling between the having and leaving or meeting and holding and loving and losing the persons, the places, the things and their meanings, and finding the happiness in having something to miss.

I am sick and tired of having to squeeze every ounce out of life to enjoy it.
So I will stretch my roots until I am tall enough to bear my own fruit.

Tonight I'm riding the bus like everyone in the town,
we all just want to get drunk, because we all love the Browns.
So I looked up the score, stood up and shouted "we won"
and no one said a word.
But I kept smiling to myself like I do when I'm down,
cuz everything everyone says to me is either indifferent, important, or dead to me, so if I say what I want and then let it be, no one can get to me.

In a couple of hours, I saw where the time went.
I guess I needed a couple of hours to kill
to figure out that what happened, happened.
And what hasn't yet, will.
