Streetlight
The grass keeps blowing uneasy now
And I can't see how
You're gonna comfort me
The hurt that lingers behind this wall
That stands so tall
Has brought me to my knees
I take a step but the streetlight's calling me back
Just to kick me one more time
Swimming under the things
That I can't seem to ask you
Cause I don't think I can handle the truth
The amber light through your windowpane
Used to sing for me and I would call your name
In every picture that fades away
That shades to gray burns deeper in my heart
I take a step but the streetlight's calling me back
Just to kick me one more time
Swimming under the things
That I can't seem to ask you
Cause I don't think I can handle the truth
Throwing embers toward
Spinning sheets of paper
Holding everything I can't win
I take a step but the streetlight's calling me back
Just to kick me one more time
Swimming under the things
That I can't seem to ask you
Cause I don't think I can handle the truth
I take a step but the streetlight's calling me back
Just to kick me one more time
Swimming under the things
That I can't seem to ask you
Cause I don't think I can handle the truth
And I can't see how
You're gonna comfort me
The hurt that lingers behind this wall
That stands so tall
Has brought me to my knees
I take a step but the streetlight's calling me back
Just to kick me one more time
Swimming under the things
That I can't seem to ask you
Cause I don't think I can handle the truth
The amber light through your windowpane
Used to sing for me and I would call your name
In every picture that fades away
That shades to gray burns deeper in my heart
I take a step but the streetlight's calling me back
Just to kick me one more time
Swimming under the things
That I can't seem to ask you
Cause I don't think I can handle the truth
Throwing embers toward
Spinning sheets of paper
Holding everything I can't win
I take a step but the streetlight's calling me back
Just to kick me one more time
Swimming under the things
That I can't seem to ask you
Cause I don't think I can handle the truth
I take a step but the streetlight's calling me back
Just to kick me one more time
Swimming under the things
That I can't seem to ask you
Cause I don't think I can handle the truth
