lyrics

The silence weighed heavy and the words came slow
Thinking on things that you did know
It was not a lot, but you didn't stop,
Running your mouth and speaking too much

Drawing from the well of a once good thing
Now stranded in the desert no hope for spring,
You'll figure it out, know what you are talking about,
But you're as pale as a child whose seen a ghost in the house

And all these years that passed you by
Came crashing right down with a single sigh
They don't need a reason why
To pack it all up and turn out the light

Burning all those letters you once received
It's easier than reading and answering,
Will you pay it on time? Counting nickels and dimes
And does it feel better once it's out of your mind?

Working too hard to make ends meet
Feeling like a man on your own two feet,
But now you're alone, and the sounds of a home,
Are echoing down those streets that you roam

And all these years that passed you by
Came crashing right down with a single sigh
They don't need a reason why
To pack it all up and turn out the light

And all these years can pass as moments,
While others won't let you out
All this weight that you've been holding
Cast the shadows and throw out that doubt
You're stronger than ever, but it's time to let that beast out
