Anchors

I can't keep up with the seasons
And I can't find the words to tell you
That I've been draggin' myself down these dark and dead-end streets
Almost famous, I hardly knew
I live with ghosts from time to time
And share my soul with empty rooms
You wouldn't believe how quiet it gets
Broke and tired, we stumble through

But I'm older now
And I can't hold on much longer
Of all the wild hearts
Here's to you, the dreamers with your
Distant eyes and
All the blood and sweat you gave this life
Maybe for one more try

I spent my money on foolish desire
And all that's left is a wounded heart
There's bound to be a shipwreck somewhere under the water
With my name across the sail
Like the anchor in my arms
I could use another distraction
That doesn't hurt when nobody wins
But I'll keep wanderin' till the fire's gone cold
And the grey clouds of smoke start to thin

'Cause I'm older now
And I can't hold on much longer
Of all the wild hearts
Here's to you, the dreamers with your
Distant eyes and
All the blood and sweat you gave this life
Maybe for one more try

'Cause I'm older now
And I can't hold on much longer
Of all the wild hearts
Here's to you, the dreamers with your
Distant eyes and
All the blood and sweat you gave this life
Maybe for one more try

So hold the curtain one last time
I'll bleed to fill those empty rooms
And when those lights finally die
I hope it means somethin' to you
