lyrics

I’ve seen you lately, you’re pointing your gun the wrong way
And if it’s broken take me, back to be the one that saw this
Down, down, down falling in this hole
Bound, bound, bound to a good man’s soul
We will remain whole

I can see you waiting for another day to pass you by
I can see you waiting for the things I said that I would try
I can see you waiting for me to walk out of your life
But I know I’ve been blinded by this new light

I’ve seen you vacant, filled only with vices
Maybe I should take one, make me more than you did
Down, down, down falling in this hole
Bound, bound, bound to a good man’s soul
We will remain whole

I can see you waiting for another day to pass you by
I can see you waiting for the things I said that I would try
I can see you waiting for me to walk out of your life
But I know I’ve been blinded by this new light

Can’t sleep better alone
Can’t wait up till you’re home
Can’t keep up with your ghost, but I’ve done better than most
Can’t wait up till you say you’re leaving
Can’t sleep better alone
Can’t wait up till you’re home
Can’t keep up with your ghost, but I’ve done better than most
Can’t wait up till you say you’re leaving

I can see you waiting for another day to pass you by
I can see you waiting for the things I said that I would try
I can see you waiting for me to walk out of your life
But I know I’ve been blinded by this new light
