People and cars on the avenue
But i can't hear a thing, cause i'm looking for you
I've been haunted
By all that i can't have
I should make a list of every near miss
Every thing that fell and brushed my fingertips
I'm shattered
Gone is the wait and see
Now i'll say goodbye to all of that
Lower my head
Turn away
And never look back
A quitter never quits, he just changes his mind
This song i sing is true and sublime
It comforts me
But it won't pay the rent
I leaned in for, to give her a kiss
I spilt her drink, i burnt her wrist
With my cigarette
I'm clumsy when i get close
Now i'll say goodbye to all of that
Lower my head
Turn away
And never look back
I wanted it all, but i'll settle for some
At the end of the day it don't matter what you want
Come the end of days
All you get is the truth
On needles and pins, the story begins
The world outside
The houselights dim
Well anyway
What else can a poor boy do?
Now i'll say goodbye to all of that
Lower my head
Turn away
And never look back
