just go it's clear you want to leave
and it'd be for the best
I know you don't want to be judged
but it's too late for that

so you tried your best
well it wasn't good enough
when we started to down
you only pulled me further down
even when you're here
your mind is somewhere else
where wherever that is
is where I think you should go now

and so you'll want to plead your case
I don't care to hear anything you say

you are so automatic
you are so automatic
what does it mean when your life gets better but you still hate everything?
you are so condescending
inflexible and demanding
I know this isn't the right way
but it is an ending

the past is just a hole
where time and patience go

---

I never should have left
I can't remember why I was so sure
these years have finally bled
the last of my good will and self respect
on lie is not enough
I've told a thousand more just to cover it up

what happens when the midday sun finds you still in your bed?
dreaming up impossible solutions to the problems you can't fix?

this is my hour of need
I'm begging for someone to rescue me

what happens when the midday sun finds you still in your bed?
I don't want this

---

I'll be there in the morning if you're ready to go
you know I've been hoping that you'd finally call
if the veil is lifted on your homemade hell
I will drive through the night to save you from yourself

yeah nothing's going right inside your home
hollow feelings follow everyone
talking scratches off the cheap veneer
hiding scary shit you won't go near

someone always has to be the first
to take a hit for what is a shared curse
why don't you just do it for god's sake
there is nothing left to save

I will turn off the engine
I will turn off the lights
I will wait in the silence
til the moment is right

you will sleep out the back door under cover of dark
make your way down the path and tumble into my car

yeah weeks and months and years will disappear
weariness cast into cool night air
our engine roaring down the interstate
casting off the curse of wicked fate

---

whatever you think you saw; just let it go
the hour was late and you were long past tired
visions of a brighter future of regaining a sense of peace
should be cast into the sea

cos there is no one coming to save you
there is no magic in the world
the war its over
the future decided
there's no use in trying to hide or deny it
you're cursed

---

I'm so tired, let me be

you used to think that maybe life would be better but
now you know it probably won't

is your life what you dreamed?

you used to think that maybe life would get better but
now you know it probably won't
so take those dream and put them in the gutter where
everybody knows they belong

you're cursed
