As It Stands Lyrics
everything i have in my head
it begins to fade away
i search for it and i long for it
now i know it's gone
everything has slipped away
and im so overwhelmed
everything that rests upon my shoulders fell
i would like to tell anyone who has depended on me for themselves,
i'm sorry
and everyone i've held in my arms
i believe i pushed away
i would be there if i could be there
but as it stands i'm gone
everyone has slipped away
don't be overwhelmed
everyone that loved me more than i could tell,
i'm sorry
there's a private hell for anyone who lives to only love themselves
everyone has slipped away
everyone has slipped away
everyone has slipped away
everything has slipped away
it begins to fade away
i search for it and i long for it
now i know it's gone
everything has slipped away
everything that rests upon my shoulders fell
i would like to tell anyone who has depended on me for themselves,
i'm sorry
i believe i pushed away
i would be there if i could be there
but as it stands i'm gone
everyone has slipped away
everyone that loved me more than i could tell,
i'm sorry
there's a private hell for anyone who lives to only love themselves
everyone has slipped away
everyone has slipped away

WOW!! I just heard this song for the first time, and I loved it. And now that I look at the lyrics, I am even more amazed. What a beautiful, incredible song about having something you love slip away from you.
It's ok...when I listened to it, I thought it sounded a little whiny, a little Dashboard Confessional-like. Brett drags out his voice, licks the words up along with the monotone. I thought it was going to pick up speed. But no, neither the song nor his voice picks up. Maybe it's effective that way, maybe. Because now I find myself humming the tunes.
just...wow
i think the lyrics are incredible. this song is like the story of my life. they totally put my feelings into words.
