my lyricsbox
Ive been treated I can see
Im not stupid I can see
Im not sorry, Im angry
I am beaten, I am torn
I am glad that I was born
Im glad that I am living

I am shaken I am scared
Im weak and unprepared
Im a loser and a liar
I will kill to stay alive
I will kill to prove a point
I will set the earth on fire

So I woke up late
Put my shoes on straight
Walked out the gate
And the day was new
And the lake was blue
And the eagle flew
Ive been hibernating waiting for a sign
Ive been medicating, drinking dollar wine

She was cute and she was small
She was playing basketball
She made me wonder
We finished it so fast
As the ambulances passed
And the lightening and the thunder

She gave everything to me
I said I didnt know
And I put myself above her
And I decided not to wait
I decided not to care
I decided just to love her
Where she stood is where I stood is understood
And the day was new
And the lake was blue
And the eagle flew
I said lets stay up and watch it all go down

And once again they play with my head again
They got me in deep again
I fell for their tricks again
And I believed them again
Im such an idiot
Once again they twisted my arm again
I fell for their charm again
I didnt wake up until I understood the freeway

Every car is a person
Every car is a person
Every car is a person
Every car is a person
Every car is a person
Every car is a person

So the eagle flew
And the lake was blue
And the day is new
We are older now
I am older now
You are older too
And the open grinder will always find her too
And the desperate faces on Sunday afternoon
The open grinder is sure to find her too
And the desperate faces on Sunday afternoon
