I think the lyrics are more like this...
|
|
Like a lit cigarette to your lips when it fit.
|
Like the lung to your heart that it loaths 'cause it wasn't always broke.
|
Holding on so long for something that it loves.
|
Like the hole in the yard that we dug so far.
|
Then when you left for so long and forgot 'cause the grass had grown so tall.
|
Erasing all we thought and when I get close I fall.
|
|
You say life has got you down.
|
Steady course we're breaking out.
|
|
This isn't what you thought it was. I should have known this from the start.
|
Like twenty miles of catacombs. And now you're with me in my heart.
|
Looking on so far, saying "There, I've got you now."
|
|
It's the goals in your mind that you left behind.
|
From the glass is a crutch on the path to always losing touch.
|
If you blur it just enough you might see what you want.
|
Now the dirt from the yard blew away so far.
|
Growing more each day 'til we saw it became a mountain range.
|
And I just stared and blinked, wishing I could change.
|
|
Say, life has got you down.
|
Set a course, you're breaking out.
|
Find the will to make it now.
|
Before our time runs out.
|
|
Oh, you didn't want to go.
|
Been holding on so long.
|
And now I know you'll make it.
|
|
This isn't what you thought it was.
|
I should have known this from the start.
|
Like twenty miles of catacombs.
|
And now you're with me in my heart.
|
Looking on so far, saying "There, I've got you now."
|
|
Ohhh...
|
Why'd you have to go?
|
And why'd I wait so long?
|
