The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Ever since you left
Ever since the fallout
I've been stuck in here
Seeking some relief
Thought I'd take a chance
Thought I'd send a call out
Not that you would care
But, you see
Now I sit around fillin' the blank time
Now I sit around
Heartaches comin' on the inside
Can't wait for the flag to fall
You really should get over here
Mistakes burnin' in my mind
Can't wait for the flag to fall
You really should get over here
Being on my own
Was never my intention
How do things like this
Seem to happen to me?
Was it something that I said?
"Oh, forgot to mention..."
Given half a chance
to make amends
Heartaches comin' on the inside
Can't wait for the flag to fall
You really should get over here
Mistakes burnin' in my mind
Can't wait for the flag to fall
You really should get over here
Five days - feels like a lifetime
Can't wait for the flag to fall
You really should get over here
I am a simple man
Lookin' for a handout
How can you just sit
While I cop a plea
I had things in mind
But they never panned out
Not that you would care
But, you see
Now I sit around fillin' the blank time
Now I sit around fillin' the blank time
Now I sit around
Heartaches comin' on the inside
Can't wait for the flag to fall
You really should get over here
Mistakes burnin' in my mind
Can't wait for the flag to fall
You really should get over here
Hard day - well it feels like a lifetime
Can't wait for the flag to fall
You really should get over here
Heartaches tearin' on the inside
Can't wait for the flag to fall
