lyrics

stoic
--------------

Hours past midnight, I found myself
At a gas station.
Hungry, lost and still
Tired, blank from pills.
I walk like an old man
I look like I'm home from the old war
I'm fresh off the plane,
But I've no desire to celebrate.

Maybe I'm meant to be lonely.
Maybe I'm meant to be alone.
I retreat to the only way
I feel at home.

I find my way home, I collapse
In the doorway.
The smell of ashes
Follows me home -
The smell sticks.

I don't think you were good for me
I don't think you were good
But you had me feeling
Some kind of warm.

Some kind of warm.

I made mistakes when I
Was young,
At least I know that
Now.
I will never be
The same,
Now that I've
Watched my brain
Melt.

You win some,
You lose some.
I hope
I looked good for
The cameras.

"Where did you go?"
I whisper in the mirror
As the toilet
Overflows.
"How can you stay
So god damn stoic?"
"How does your heart break
Without you even knowing it?"

Maybe I'm meant to be crazy,
Like I always seem to be.
You can cry on my shoulder,
You can be my everything.

Like I'm a part of the background
It's seeping into me.
You're a warning sign
In a language I can't read.
