The basics would be me and my guitar playing stuff I wrote as well as the occasional cover, but occasionally there's a piano or another person involved.
every day you know your walls are closing in
girl did you disappear yet
& all i see in you is desperation
& i'd do anything to get you outta here
every day you know you lose a little somethin
you grow a little colder, fight the emptiness
& all i know is you're never gonna be the same
& can you still move here or are you too far gone
& you'll say you've got your reasons but i think that you're just scared to stand up for yourself
& you'll swear up & down it ain't nobody's fault,
not yours & not his
every day you sink a little further in
& it gets a little harder to hold on to you
& once you'd do nothing if it didn't make you strong
now you'll do anything if it keeps you weak and small
& you'll say you've got your reasons i can't see because i'm not you
no, i am not you
& if i really loved you i'd just leave you alone
cause it's your life, it's your life
you say "things are gonna change" but they're never gonna change
not for you, not for anyone,
you gotta get yourself outta here
& every day i stand & watch you waste away
& it's your life & i can't make you want more than this
you look ok but girl i know inside you're dyin
& i'd do anything to get you outta here
maybe it's too late, you've learned to drink your poison down
& maybe i should learn to walk away
you say "things are gonna change" but they're never gonna change
& i've said all i can & now i'm
outta here.
