Down with your back against the bottom There's something about these days that got you caught up Toss another empty bottle into the bay What did you say? What did you do? When life came crashing down on you I should've seen it when you broke down Stop and listen, and stop acting like you don't have a position Cause I could see it from the jump when I kissed you And feel it through the walls that you constantly put your fist through You're pissed, but you aint got to fight like this Life isn't worth a dime with a knife sliced wrist Spent a whole bunch of time trying to write your list Of the last things alive that make you bite your lip Yeah, little girl, little love Little hold my head to the ground in the mud Little I'm not coming back up until the whole sky falls down on me and breaks my trust Now run, and think about it all, think about the last chance given and the first round fall And if that can't get you back to where you start just call And meet me in the place where we always are

I shoulda seen it when I came back, yep, I shoulda Cause you don't see the things that I really wish that you would have And you don't make the effort I really thought that you could have To unlock the cage where you put us, and take another stab at it Fly fishing for the catch, with my heart tied onto the only line that you cast And if I don't sink this raft right now I'm gonna float down the river until my last breath's gasp Yeah, little lock, little key Little drop my boxes of thoughts into the sea Little I'm not coming back out until the whole world stops in its tracks and admits its defeat for good Back to the shackles, back to the comfort of the things that attack you and make you cold I'm over trying to make this home, so just go And leave me in the place that we'll always know
