Not Sure I Can

The blackness thickens
The voices thin
And I wonder where I am
Oh here I am
I'm sitting on the porch
On the porch
Another day for the news junkie
Disillusionment
And the impotence that comes it from
What can I do
Is there anything?

Now the time has come
To wonder why it is I should stay here
Tell me how can I leave you?
Would I still know who I am?
Not sure I can

The screen door slams
For one last time
And I'm left here by myself
To face my darkness
And the house next door
House next door
I see Orion and his belt
He offers no direction for me
I only know I'm looking up
And it's cold outside
Cold outside

Now the time has come
To wonder why it is I should stay here
Tell me how can I leave you?
Would I still know who I am?
Not sure I can

Dave has a song
Sort of Catcher in the Rye
Remember innocence?
He fumbles at the chords

I grew up on a sunny beach
Long long gone
Ran around on my bare feet
Long long gone
Sunny days last for forty hours
And the rain is not damp
As I try to remember
Yes I try to remember
But I can't
Our first kiss under moonlight
Long long gone
We were shaking like butterflies
Long long gone
Sunny days last for forty hours
And the rain is not damp
As I try to remember
Yes I try to remember
But I can't

I say I like it cuz I do
Eddie would too
But we hear the car doors slam
There's people showing up
We're sitting on the porch
Both of us

Now the time has come
To wonder why it is I should stay here
Tell me how can I leave you?
Would I still know who I am?
Not sure I can
Tell me how can I leave you?
Would I still know who I am?
Not sure I can
Not sure I can
Not sure I can
