lyrics

alone again, only this time it's just temporary
and purposeful
a moment to reflect
January chills
just a year ago
you were investing your love in strangers
and getting none of it back

it was such a mistake
you pressed your nose up to the petals
they bit your face
and you were tangled in the nettles

full overload, you took the elevator down
and found yourself somewhere
on the coast of Virginia
you ran for the beach in the dark
and when your bare feet touched the water
you said

I'm gonna fix things when I'm home

home again, back from a short vacation
the picture's not so blurry
that's long enough you played pretend
pull the plug out of the wall and in the dark
you see the stars that silently watched you fade away

and in your heart
you know this life was not forever
it falls apart
and with new friends you'll build it better

full overload, you took the elevator down
and found yourself somewhere
on the coast of Virginia
you ran for the beach in the dark
and when your bare feet touched the water
you said

walking with father
just a young boy at the time
saw a flower
so purple and inviting
he said
"don't get any closer
it catches the eye
but it's toxic and cuts like a knife"

heavy on my conscience
and inches from your face
you were every memory
that I tried to erase
you searched for the pain in my eyes
but I was smiling again
I left you standing alone
I made my way back home all right
