step out the door into the cold that's when I notice ... I'm alone... I'm alone I'll take this ride while high N five, shell if I surprise ...she ain't comin home... N so I roam N shes not standing by my side I'm caught inbetween the lines of a rock, and a hard licker ride ... took a sip and as I threw the bottle wide it lands before my eyes ... I looked aside ... ( a slow methodical sewer slide) ...sewer slide [pre chorus] ...I looked back up to see a man ...with that same bottle in hand ...who I tried so desperately to understand a man i'd never notice as he's going through his own hit , ...in the matrix [chorus] "but I'll say this" he says to me and says nothing at all how proud he was I was listening, listening at all and I asked him 'bout the football game and while inside he hid a deep dark pain a pain only known to those that felt that way so deep in, you couldn't reach it, with a scalpel anyway ...but hey [hook] if I took my guard down would you call your dogs off don't want it to end now but you're letting shots off --- with no more troops to send now ---can we finally start the peace talks because I'm, lying on the roof with a whiffle and scope tired of lying to my mind that we had any hope ...the flames we stoked ...(we should've died in that smoke) ... [verse ] ...she came from a place...no faith in their fathers down farther, a place so low, I don't think it gets any darker a martyr , with a knack for making everything harder the scars were, etched deep she told me, don't even bother... but I could see them when shes being like "I need you to go" heaven knows, why she wont, let me leave out the door she says no , please don't go, I don't know what I want anymore ...(...but I want you) [break] ..."well I "... [hook] I wanna let my guard down ...(...but I want you) [break] ..."well I "... [hook] I wanna let my guard down but you won't call your dogs off never wanted it to end now but you're still letting shots off with no more troops to send now why haven't we started the peace talks cause ... I've been lying on my roof with a pen and a scope I'm tired of lying just to find we never had Any hope the flames we stoked ... ...(it was all just cope)... but [chorus] "but I'll say this" I say to you... and say nothing at all oh how proud I was you were listening, ...too me at all N so you asked me about about my day I smiled wide while inside I hid a deep dark pain a pain known only to those who've felt that way so deep in, it can't be reach with, a scalpel any way ...but hey [hook] I'm gonna let my guard down I hope you called your dogs off I will not let this end now please don't let any shots off ---we got no more troops to send now ---its time we start the peace talks ...(peace talks) tired of, lying on the roof with a pen and scope I've been lying to say that we never had any hope ...the flames we stoked ...(it was all just cope) (cope) [piano outro] [end] [All lyrics written=k= by Stezious]
