Lyrics
I'm starting to think
That another drink might pass the pain away
It's been seven years, and everything has changed
But I still fondly look back on the nights
When the bright lights shined
On our bright, young faces
And I
Think that things took their turn for the worse
The day that our brother
Took his turn in the hearse
And now most days I think that I would rather roam
Than sit inside our crowded home
Pretending all's in place
When in reality
We only wished you could've stopped to see our faces
Realize what you would leave behind
Frail hearts, and cold embraces
We'd spend our days sharing every sound and smile
Building memories 'round cigarettes
Wasting all our time, and so we know
And so we know
Two halves make one
And even though they may act separately
They've come to learn that all good things
Must end out of necessity
I'm finding poetry in everything
But not the kind that makes us smile
No, not the kind we'd like to sing
The kind that makes me see the animal in everyone
Lets me know that every flaw is passed along from son to son
And when everything is said and done
I think I'd like my brother back
Don't want to be an only son
I wish I had back every night I can't remember
Wish that I could just go back to that December
Say the things that you needed to hear
How was I supposed to know
I wouldn't get another year?
And now, we are all wearing the same mask
And yet each face that I see
It differs from the last
So when I think about the place that we used to call home
I think I'd rather roam
So, here's to another drink
Another day to waste
These years will pass us by
And it will never be the same
But I still fondly look back on the nights
When the bright lights shined
On our bright, young faces
