I wondered if you'd ever come back to see me
no I don't believe the reasons that they gave for why you left me
and I often thought about you being dead
cuz I remember when you said that only death could keep us apart
now here you are
and your looking fine and feeling good
I won't ask though maybe I should
do my best to pretend
that I'm built to make amends
I've been under the influence of uncaring friends
So many things have changed since you slipped
through my hands
the way I understand
I am the only one I have to blame for all the hurtful names I wore
as close as bone
I'm much too weak
...not to be alone
I have no courtesy to lend
I have no pride left to defend
I've been under the influence of uncaring friends.

I was never one to comfort, was never one to run
to
I've got good news and I've got bad news
I'm gonna make it all better
undo all the bad things that I've done
and someday when you're older
you'll forget everything I said and just be left with a wrecking
ball head
I belong to what I see in your eyes
as you are part of the withered soul in mine.

Oh, I think the trash is piling up
when you coming home aint soon enough
I'm fighting off what I thought was love
When you coming home aint soon enough
I open up the door and spill my guts
and I don't have the will to pick them up
they give you the shaft and call you "tough"
when you coming home aint soon
stick it in your eye and twist it out
fill up all the holes with sand and mud
drink a little more than you can choke
you can get a taste of my bad luck
(just a little taste)
I dug a big hole in the back yard
I'm gonna be a diamond in the rough
gonna lie down and hide a while
...when you coming home aint soon enough
I'm dirty
I keep it all inside.

when hard times hit to be the one that you resist
is more than I can take
jump into the lake with me my love
when hard times hit carry me into the woods and lay down among the
leaves with me my love
we give in so easily to the tenderness of sleep
shut the whole world out
no one needs to know how we can't handle it when hard times hit
menu
I told everybody
you would take care of me
I told everybody
I hope they believe me
I look up above me
worrying what you see
I wish this was easy
I told everybody
I've been carrying you all this time I won't let
you down
I've been blinding you from behind just turn around
the sun is gonna come
you'll see
walk your crooked line
and breathe
shining in your eyes
that's Me
the Sun is coming out
you'll see
no one's gonna eat you alive
you're safe with me
boy, are you in for a big surprise, Misery
love is nothing to be sad about
all the time
love is nothing to be without
when you've got Mine
The Son is gonna come
you'll see ...
menu
come away with a smile I've got nothing on you
come on back for a while I can't promise to release you
the only time I spoke my mind
I begged you to stay
the only time I looked outside
you were running away
Never asked for a touch
nor the tenderness I'm leaving
Still, I ask for too much.
Do your worried eyes adore me?
just in time to say goodbye
and I can't find a way
and over sight so I decide
to send you running away
Come away with a smile
I've got something for you
I'll be gone for a while
I can't promise to release you
menu
we've been watching you change and we're enjoying
the ways you've stayed the same and the pretty yellow lights around
your head and the easy breath of everything you said remind all
of us of the good life we could have.
We've been hoping you'd stick around there's so much learning...but
we're too proud. And the open road that's flirting with your feet
is just something that regret has yet to meet.
the reasons for the coming and the going
are just as bad
We've been wishing too long and we've been praying
to feel we've not done wrong and the word of God that's covering
our hearts is just enough to make the madness start. no one ever
understood the message...
menu
come on over we'll do it again
come on by and we'll kill this friendship
one night at a time
I'm sure ask anyone Under the influence
I wondered if you'd ever come back to see me
no I don't believe the reasons that they gave for why you left me
and I often thought about you being dead
cuz I remember when you said that only death could keep us apart
now here you are
and your looking fine and feeling good
I won't ask though maybe I should
do my best to pretend
that I'm built to make amends
I've been under the influence of uncaring friends

through my hands
