Escapegoat (acoustic, comments welcome)

It feels like years since your arms crossed mine
They say that time heals all, but we haven't healed in time
Try to bridge the gap, but you threw away the maps
And through the fog I wander, uncertain and insecure
I don't know..
Is any of me real?

Stitch my heart on to my sleeve just to see if it would bleed
Try to find a way from you
But I can't hide in my room
The roof starts to collapse with each torn down picture of you

Two years later, doesn't get easier
Snare, snare and crash through the hood of your car
In headlight heaven, I might as well stare..
Take me home, to the base of the stairs

The bruises on my neck
Were once a trademark spectacle
I wear your scars so proudly
I carried you so proudly
But times, they change, and you've changed more
By experience, it's almost always for the worse
and I don't know...
Was any of this worth it?

Line me up down the road
Highway hypnosis guiding your reckless abandon
In headlight heaven, I might as well stare..
Take me home, to the base of the stairs

All of this was worth it




this song is actually about falling out of love with my girlfriend/fiancee of 2 years. the line "Snare, snare and crash through the hood of your car" is actually a reference to the song "snaresnarecrash" which i wrote about falling IN love with her. basically, it's just both sides of the spectrum. Obviously, this side sucks a bit more XD
