Keep Me Steady

I can't remember growing up
My first eight years are all but lost
But I remember pacing late at night
I guess something's never change with time
I know I promised you that I'd be fine
But I thought you could tell I lied
So let's set up shop by the window and pretend that's what it's for
And watch small town drunks stumble by the church
To the run down bar next door
And end up sleeping on the floor
Tired and alone
I'd always end up sleepless
I've been watching static screens for three weeks
And making sure to keep my weight on both feet
I'm doing everything you said to keep me steady
But my head feels heavy
And I think I'm falling in again
Well I was never too impressed by your bridge
But I wouldn't burn it down if it took the memories with it
It was the summer of repetition
Same streets on a different night
It was the summer of repetition
Same six sets of stoplights
I'd sit bored in your backseat for another summer straight
If it meant thing's would never change and we would all just stay the same
I just want someone who will stay
Man, I just want someone
I've been watching static screens for three weeks
And making sure to keep my weight on both feet
I'm doing everything you said to keep me steady
But my head feels heavy
And I think I'm falling in again
I left a rope on your nightstand
You've got a choice to make at hand
You either grab the end and pull me out
Or tie the noose and wrap it around
I hope you pull me out
I hope you pull me out
I hope you pull me out
I hope you pull me out
I've been watching static screens for three weeks
And making sure to keep my weight on both feet
I'm doing everything you said to keep me steady
But my head feels heavy
And I think I'm falling in again
