Adapt
A busted door stops me dead
From another defeat
Hope abides, truth still hurts
Starving at a feast
Night falls, dark, alone
I dream a distant home
An honest touch could bring me back where I belong
And I sure don't want your sympathy today
Don't think that if I could
I would get up and walk away
Get up and walk away
A cup of coffee might do me right
Break the boredom of the sight
Bare walls, flourescent shapes
Tell more than memories say
Determination hiding fear
Of you there, and me here
When time finally heals that thought
Time may be all we've got
And I sure don't want your sympathy today
Don't think that if I could
I would get up and walk away
Get up and walk away
A fine bar way uptown
Desperation by the glass
Papers pinned over every wall
For every last romance
A castle isn't worth a dime
The grave takes every cent
I might not have much on the line
But it's all I have to bet
And I sure don't want your sympathy today
Don't think that if I could
I would get up and walk away
Get up and walk away
From another defeat
Hope abides, truth still hurts
Starving at a feast
Night falls, dark, alone
I dream a distant home
An honest touch could bring me back where I belong
And I sure don't want your sympathy today
Don't think that if I could
I would get up and walk away
Get up and walk away
A cup of coffee might do me right
Break the boredom of the sight
Bare walls, flourescent shapes
Tell more than memories say
Determination hiding fear
Of you there, and me here
When time finally heals that thought
Time may be all we've got
And I sure don't want your sympathy today
Don't think that if I could
I would get up and walk away
Get up and walk away
A fine bar way uptown
Desperation by the glass
Papers pinned over every wall
For every last romance
A castle isn't worth a dime
The grave takes every cent
I might not have much on the line
But it's all I have to bet
And I sure don't want your sympathy today
Don't think that if I could
I would get up and walk away
Get up and walk away
