You`re my pal, I`m your friend, together we can patch up our loose ends
I`m as close as I can get but you`re so far away it`s that I must confess
That I`ve tried to numb my heart stop it beating before it starts
But I can`t win I can`t climb
The barbed wire fence to make a start and untangle my mind
Is this the path I chose? Because It`s reserved for those
Who spend their lives swimming in a goldfish bowl
I need to numb the past but it seems too much a task
To smash the glass and throw those gills away
If we`re alone I can`t stand to see you basking on top of my throne
But still I`ll start to hear you breathe my name you know you`re eating up my heart
And I`m drinking from your cup but It needs filling up
Before long I`ll be crawling to your door
I need to fill my lungs with air be convinced that I don`t care
I`ll kick myself until I`m forced to linger up
Turn the light on show the way
Don`t out myself of everyday
And tell myself I`m someone else
and close my ears to what they say
Because I`m wrong you`re right
I don`t need you to tell me when I can hear it every night
Disconnect myself from the throng
And I`m counting this last time because
It`s the last time I`ll belong and I belong
Once I stopped and looked behind and turned to salt and no method could I find
To enjoy the here and now it`s left me swinging and to stop it don`t know how
Well it`s you I got to know
And we watched this friendship grow
It just takes a fool like me to light it and watch it burn
And I can`t say your name and I won`t forget my shame
I`m not here drowned my phone for good
Burn the bridge that crossed your moat
It`s the only way I`ll float
In you I find something divine
But I`ll just look from far away
Because I`m wrong your right
I don`t need you to tell me when I can hear it every night
Disconnect myself from the throng
And I`m counting this last time because
It`s the last time I`ll belong and I belong
I once belonged
