Far Too Familiar

Have we been here before?
Act like you already know
Can you really be sure
Baby let's take it slow...

Have we been here before?
Act like you already know
We'll start feelin' high
Then we'll take it real low

How low are you willing go—how low?

I've walked this road 1,000 times
Been too fucked up to see the signs
Dulled my lead against this page
Same line repeated different ways

When did your gaze turn cold?
When did our love unfold?
I don't know when! (I don't know when!)
All I know—it's fucking gone—long gone

Your ghost lingers on

Did we missed all the signs?
One step over the line
Can this really be love
If it's been making us blind?

Will we rot on the vine?
Never looking behind
Baby, don't take the trip
If you can't lose your mind

If you can't lose your mind—your mind

I'm wearing-thin well-beaten lines
Pure dissonance where nothing rhymes
These feelings far too familiar...
Off-course and can't re-configure

When did your gaze turn cold?
When did our love unfold?
I don't know when! (I don't know when!)
All I know—it's fucking gone—long gone

Your ghost lingers on

I let you down again, I let you down again—oh!
I let you down again, I let you down again—oh!

Much in the same remains the same
Should I say it again? Let me explain...
Much in the same remains the same
Stuck in your ways—you're to blame...

You're to blame, you're to blame, you're to blame!

Day in, day out—these exercises in self doubt
I'm washed up, weighed down
Reaching out, don't let me drown!

Walk through the door like I never left
Smell the success reeking on my breath
Again and again, a step too far
I stopped losin' when I lowered the bar
...I just lowered the bar

Reverse — psychological — warfare
Convince — myself — this is not despair
Reverse — psychological — warfare
Ice cold — hollow — into the void I stare
