Hush About the City - On Making Friends

Taking the loss I step out of the ring
Now we say the same words
But we mean different things
And I search for the answer
I hope we both find
About places to stay
And ones to leave behind
Cuz now that I'm here
It's a horrible call
The measures I've taken
Don't add up to nothing
The sum on the surface
The depth of the deep
Just makes me feel worthless
It makes me feel weak
An overabundance of lights hit the road
The way that I've come
Is the way that I go
The more that I think
The less that I know
The more that I feel I just wanna go home
Over and over it's across my face
I just can't stop counting
All of my disgrace and
That square little window
The look in your eyes
If I had just made that our final goodbye
Debt wells within me
The horrible cost
The crippling gauge
Of affordable loss
Perversion stacked sideways
Now seen through the light
Wake me from sleep and steal peace from the night
I sink below breakers
I cope with the truth
Do you mean more to me
Than I do to you
Do I just close my eyes
Do I reach for a line
The light starts to fade
I don't have much more time
Maybe one day when I'm over red cars
And when ambulance lights don't rip up my heart
When I've learned to put me first right from the start
The fit and the finish won't leave such a scar
When all the excuses wash out in the wake
And I just remember that single mistake
Then I'll calm the storm before it begins
I won't let my ship sink from water within
