It's Over (I Have the High Ground)
I drink, I hope, that all I do is fade away
I sink, I choke, on everything you said to me
Putting myself down, losing my gravity, is it the weather or the devil in me?
How can I stand on ground falling beneath me?
An empty house is all I'll ever see
Not getting better and I can't ignore it
My words are empty and the worlds just falling away
Fixing myself, drawing blood from a stone
What's the point in trying?
All I wanna do is stay home
I think that one day maybe I'll be who I want to see
Inside. I won't let, myself reflect on words you spoke to me
Bringing my friends down, losing my family, I'm not even half the man I should be
A strange flat in a brand new street
Alone is all I'll ever sleep
Not getting better and I can't ignore it
My words are empty and the worlds just falling away
Fixing myself, drawing blood from a stone
What's the point in trying?
All I wanna do is stay home
Stay home, I stay home. Like the pessimist I am
Stay home, I stay home. Stay alive because I can
Where is the use in hoping that all your friends were joking
One night when I left alone, and left my door half open?
Did I think you would walk in, that I could lick my wounds clean?
I don't want empty pity, a mess is all I'll ever be
A mess is all I'll ever be
A failure's all I'll ever be
Not getting better and I can't ignore it
My words are empty and the worlds just falling away
Fixing myself, drawing blood from a stone
What's the point in trying?
All I wanna do is stay home
I sink, I choke, on everything you said to me
Putting myself down, losing my gravity, is it the weather or the devil in me?
How can I stand on ground falling beneath me?
An empty house is all I'll ever see
Not getting better and I can't ignore it
My words are empty and the worlds just falling away
Fixing myself, drawing blood from a stone
What's the point in trying?
All I wanna do is stay home
I think that one day maybe I'll be who I want to see
Inside. I won't let, myself reflect on words you spoke to me
Bringing my friends down, losing my family, I'm not even half the man I should be
A strange flat in a brand new street
Alone is all I'll ever sleep
Not getting better and I can't ignore it
My words are empty and the worlds just falling away
Fixing myself, drawing blood from a stone
What's the point in trying?
All I wanna do is stay home
Stay home, I stay home. Like the pessimist I am
Stay home, I stay home. Stay alive because I can
Where is the use in hoping that all your friends were joking
One night when I left alone, and left my door half open?
Did I think you would walk in, that I could lick my wounds clean?
I don't want empty pity, a mess is all I'll ever be
A mess is all I'll ever be
A failure's all I'll ever be
Not getting better and I can't ignore it
My words are empty and the worlds just falling away
Fixing myself, drawing blood from a stone
What's the point in trying?
All I wanna do is stay home
