Lyrics

And we're drowning you out
In boasts of defection
If everything was up to me I would be gone by the first sign
The first sign of hope I'd be packed up and out of my way

And time has been spread so thin
And it's just hours till the day begins
And the things that are keeping you here are not keeping me here
And the things that are keeping you here will keep me away

And you'll be sorry
Isn't that what they'll say
Don't follow your heart cause it just seems to get in your way

And don't ever leave here
And mope at your leisure
And straighten out your crease here
And truth is in a tall beer

Are you drowning your fears
In a glass of deception?
When everything is hazy than everything will be ok
When everything is hazy than you won't be sad that you stayed

And time has been spread so thin
And its just hours till the day begins
And the things that are keeping you here are not keeping me here
And the things that are keeping you here will keep me away

And you'll be sorry
Isn't that what they'll say
Don't follow your heart cause it just seems to get in your way

And don't ever leave here
And mope at your leisure
And straighten out your crease here
And truth is in a tall beer
