Can't Come Back

Let's focus

On the story the way it unfolded

Like the laundry we aired then we coped with

There's not much left to spare if it's broken

But there's a lot written down

Please show me

How I'm not another verse in your poem

I don't have to be awake to decode it

'Cause the fabric's only thread 'til you sew it

And there's a lot laying around

Don't wanna waste your time

Running through the back of my mind

This happens every night

I keep on saying I'm fine but

Days get longer oh the farther I count

While my dreams are hardly drowning you out

And I swear we can't fix something we cannot figure out

But I'll know it and you'll know it when it all settles down

But we can't come back now

Don't bother

Every now and again I get caught up

I'll be done at the end of this bottle

I know I'm close when my friends call it a problem

And that's when I'll come around

Don't wanna waste your time

Running through the back of your mind

This happens every night

I keep on saying I'm fine but

Days get longer oh the farther I count

While my dreams are hardly drowning you out

And I swear we can't fix something we cannot figure out

But I'll know it and you'll know it when it all settles down

But we can't come back now

We can't come back now

We can't come back now

My way is your way out

You'll stay, I'll still fade out

Last line is my wake up

Lost time, it's all made up

We can't come back now

Can't come back now

(Show me now)

We can't come back now

(Show me now)

We can't come back now
