lyrics

When I leave here I will still go home
Don't have to say it because I already know
Left a note on the counter
I'll be there in an hour if you're alone

Don't stand up too quick or you'll lose your head
Just take a deep breath close your eyes and count to ten
Don't jump off from that ledge man
No one wants to have to clean that mess

Everyone's got problems, Everyone has needs
Don't matter your name, I know you're heart still bleeds
If you're breathing you're getting older
If you're leaving you're getting closer to where you should be

You can't deny that I have tried my best
You don't need to say, I think I can figure out the rest
You fold your hands and pray to God
Hope no strangers looking on will think you're odd

I won't say we're even, no you've clearly won
You deserve much more than i could begin to let on
Put the trophy on the mantle, Light some candles
Quoting scripture all night long

Everyone wants answers, Everyone wants more
Don't matter your age, there is something you're waiting for
If you're breathing you're getting older
If you're leaving you're getting closer
If you're trying you're getting smarter
If you're living it's getting harder to breathe
