lyrics

This house has worn me out, and it's watched you turn away
Well, I know I don't know where you're coming from

You hung your ghost up on the wall and marched into the sun
and you know, I was scared what you were going to do

and now your parties, they're all over. The champagnes all been drunk
and you know, I burned that bridge a long time ago

I ground my teeth down to the gum when I saw your orphaned son
and you know, I was here when you left us

but bit by bit, you were going down that broken road that brings you to no where
but bit by bit, though it brings you down, you can make it on your own

To all the ones I know, to all the ones that carry me home:
I couldn't tell you no. I couldn't stand the sound

To all the ones I know, the ones that come out to every show:
I never ask for help. I must be out of my mind

To all the ones I fucking bury in my songs when I'm feeling low:
We've all grown weaker now. We've all lost our self control

To all the ones I know, to all the ones that make me whole:
It could've been me. It should've been me

and he who sees a need and doesn't ask is on his way to denial
and the rope that fit around your throat is now on my own
