lyrics

So lost, so long,
Farewell again,
I wish that you could see me friend.
Breathe in, breathe out again,
It's a long and empty road ahead.
An old cliche I know,
But you'll find your way.
And through my fog,
Your blinding lights will stray.

Dial tones and many missed calls,
Lights off and alcohol galore.
Burnt out on cigarette dreams,
But none strong enough to shake the thought.
An old cliche I know,
But I've lost my way.
Comatose at night
So I can sleep through the day.

I should've died before,
For old time's sake and settled scores,
Now I will lie alone once more...

There's an open grave for me,
Where I can watch the clouds roll by.
There's a meadow of golden seed,
Where you can say your goodbyes.
Your eyes will open in time.

Birth marks are buried in stone,
The first dark outlines of life unknown.
Dry dirt lies level on me,
The ashes, the dust that keeps you keen.
An old cliche I know but I've gone away.
A man of moulded words,
Now lost in the clay.

I should've died before,
For old time's sake and settled scores,
Now I will lie alone once more...

There's an open grave for me,
Where I can watch the clouds roll by.
There's a meadow of golden seed,
Where you can say your goodbyes.
Your eyes will open in time.

With clenched fists I'll claw through the dirt.
Put everything I'll never have on scales,
And see what it's worth.
But with open hands I'll open minds,
I will withstand when I collide,
I'll know...

I should've died before,
I should've died before.
For old time's sake and settled scores,
Now I will lie alone once more...

There's an open grave for me,
Where I can watch the clouds roll by.
There's a meadow of golden seed,
Where you can say your goodbyes.
Your eyes will open in time.
