The Lamppost

I walked under the lamppost and thought of your mom
She'd come back if she could to remind you she's gone
And beg you to stop doing what she did wrong
I only hope, if you listen close
Momma might knock some sense into you from beyond

And I'm up on the overpass watching the cars
And you know what it feels like to fall just that far and you
Act like it never hurt you that hard
But it tore you apart

If you wanna go, don't wait for me
You'll be alone, the cycle repeats

I looked up at the lamppost, searching for a sign
Above me, it flickered, was it worth your life?
I think back to my knowing you were born to be wild
What happened here?
You disappeared
And I can't bring you back, the blind can't lead the blind

If you wanna go, don't wait for me
You'll be alone, the cycle repeats

I walked under
I walked under the
I walked under
I walked under the

I looked up at
I looked up at the
I looked up at
I looked up at the

I walked under (I walked under)
I walked under the (I walked under)
I walked under
I walked under the

I looked up at (I looked up at)
I looked up at the (I looked up at)
I looked up at
I looked up at the

I sat under the lamppost and welcomed the wind
I don't mind lying to myself, it'll sweep you back in

If you wanna go, don't wait for me
You'll be alone, the cycle repeats
