Fit Back In

Feeling like a stranger in my city, and my skin
Nothing around here reminds me of anything
Evenings growing shorter, and the swallows spread their wings
Dislocate me, bend me, shake me, make me fit back in
Make me fit back in

With the people at the party, and them all are lost
Catching my breath behind the bathroom door
And I'm having drinks, and saying things, and laughing 'til I'm sore
No one around here knows me anymore

And another half won't shine in half a light
Another day that came my way and passed me by
Swallowed by the night

Feeling like I'm lying, deciding my old lines
Life goes on and back to work, and "thank you, I'm alright"
I can't remember what I need, somebody read my mind
Crack me open, come pull up the blinds

And another half won't shine in half a light
I wish I could keep the days from passing by
Drift upstream, and travel back in time
Find your hand and hold it tight in mine

Moon-set, sunrise, time doesn't heal
It just goes by, it just goes by
Sunset, moon-rise, time doesn't heal
It just goes by, it just goes by
Tuck you in, I know your skies
It just goes by, it just goes by
Medicine and weary eyes
It just goes by, it just goes by
And summer burns, and winter bites
It just goes by, it just goes by
Spring and fall, and bloom and die
It just goes by, it just goes by, it just goes by
