Song Description

An honest look back at a love that wasn't what it seemed. Coming to terms with truth and blame.

Lyrics

I feel the wheels turning
And I know that you're following
Eyes on the road
Just drive through the tears
The wheels on the pavement
Still grippin'
But we're slippin'
Away in that name
A place that I wanted only for me
That I didn't deserve
Wouldn't let anyone see
Now there's so many words
That there's nothing to say
You get what you give
I just gave you away


It was pretty falling
But it churned up the dirt
Ugly spring thaw
Unburied the hurt
Now the things you're not saying
Only answer my questions
And the lies run away
And I don't want to know
I'm looking for words
To make this alright
Something to scream
When I wake up at night
I thought the truth
Would make me let it go
But I don't know
Anything anymore


I drew the lines
I thought they were solid
Thought they'd point the way
To a way
For us to live
Now I need to remember
All the things that we said
And the way that this feels
And what it all might have meant
I wish I was mad
I wish I was surprised
At being wronged
When you looked in my eyes
But my expectations
Were my only commitment
A promise
I thought meant little to me

My own medicine
Not good for what ails you
Bitter and false
Neither one of us true
Now there's no going back
Nothing to fix time
We just wallow through
Surprised on the other side
I loosened my grip
I thought that you'd hold me
Hold me
Through the fall
Maybe it's over
Maybe it's better
Maybe it's nothing
At all

Maybe it's over
Maybe it's better
Maybe we were nothing
Nothing at all
