about

This song was written around 2001, as a One Year Later song. But One Year Later was pretty short lived. I recorded a version a few years after that, but wanted to update it for this project.

lyrics

I’m here getting used to no more trying,
and no more friends to lose.
I’m knocked out.
Drag me out,
your front door.
Leave me sleeping in the snow.
That relief is all I know.

Ha ha I win, ha ha!
I didn’t feel one single thing today!
I slept it all away!

You can’t stand just to face the light of day.
You can’t stand just the sight of your own shame.
You can’t stand at all.
You stagger and you fall.
You need to wake you need a list to get complete.
You need to spend more time on your feet.
You need to change too fast-
a swift kick in the ass.

I could use some unforgiving cold now.
I could use anything.

Oh the things I’ve done.
Stab the white flag through my heart, someone.
Face me towards the stars and go.
They’re the only things I have to show,
in my cold hands.
