lyrics

Just arrived in college town, I hardly have my bearings down, there’s one…
There’s one girl on my shoulder, she’s screams “Don’t say I never told ya, about the people, they just get colder,
as they pretend they’re not getting older… you can’t run… cause those legs can hardly carry you son”
The books they hardly prick my mind, their answers I can never find,
Cause there’s two… two words that she had spoken and after that I was awoken, but she had a gone and left a token,
A picture that left me broken… I was gone… And left here to write her this song

Trapped in rooms that might as well be empty.
Those words I said, what the hell has gotten into me?
Does she care? All about the clothes I wear?
The fact that I can hardly stare at those eyes of hers…
And now it looks as if he’s changing her mind. Why did I waste my precious time?

Walking back home in the dark... the people you see make their usual remarks.
Suggesting that you’ve played your game… but you don’t feel like telling them you’ll never be the same.
After realizing that they were only dreaming.. they knew they would lose the spark .
Her words were final, simple, plain and stark…Did he really think he’d get away with this affair and make her stay?
Did he really think he’d get away?

At twenty-three, she looked to see, the kind of woman she promised… not to be.
Sorrow had made these rings around her eyes, for the boy she chose was in disguise,
When he told her all those splendid lies, she replayed back that day a thousand times,
Quite aware… that what she needed was just right there..

Trapped in a room that has become thick with memories
Words of regret and anger now come to me with ease.
Do you care? How to many it is all unfair?
The fact that you couldn’t even spare your precious time with us…
More than once you’ll cross my mind, I hope in time I’ll feel more kind…

I’m laying here in college town, I’ve finally got my bearings down,
I’m not done…
