Lyrics

You won't find me condescending at your closed door
You won't hear how they feel, 'cause you've been there before
The holiday's the hardest time to fill in all the blanks
And you don't need anyone to correct your mistakes

Wrap yourself up in the math of our world
Fill up the holes in your heart with details
For all the riddles solved and every puzzle you complete
Can't seem to find the pieces to the heart that beats

You master every task but always by the book
Then log it in your past with the risks that you once took
They left you then, they'll hurt you now!
Can't get too close to you or you will cut them down

And it comes down to me, waiting patiently
I'll take my chance with another turn
We risk, we roll, we burn

At arms length you never get hit--
Too much to gamble when you let someone in

My true friend, i'm spewing
With any luck one positive:
I just might spill some notable insight;
I didn't think before I purged

So here I am attempting to unlock the closed door
I wouldn't break it down, 'cause you'd be gone for sure
You might say something nice of me and send it in a card
Or under whiskey breath slur kind words at the bar

S'alright by me, waiting patiently
As you stay afloat in the tank you built
We sink, we'll never learn
