words used carelessly
they often allow the otherwise unguarded truth to come out
its on the tip of your tounge, you want to say that you've been there before
bu-ut you wait
you say your mind has changed
you say you won't come back again to another lonely place
with a strung-out lonely friend
cigarettes, clearly intend to make themselves a problem
playing catch up with the world all day
and long silences that no one breaks
we'll regret trying to keep these things inside forever
and wonder why we turned out this way
with all the promises we could've made
words sound slurred tonight
and mine allow everything you want is said to come out
sorry i never got to tell you the things that you wanted me to say
bu-ut, you can wait
you say your mind has changed
you say you won't come back again to another lonely place
with a strung-out lonely friend
its too much to take and,
and enough to give away
and as your day's are fading
better cut your losses and walk away
cigarettes, clearly intend to make themselves a problem
playing catch up with the world all day
and long silences that no one breaks
we'll regret trying to keep these things inside forever
and wonder why we turned out this way
with all the promises we could've made
watchin' speechlessly, become aware
what good is sight when nothing's there?
i'll trade it all for the knowledge in the world
watchin' speechlessly, become aware
what good is sight when nothing's there?
i'll trade it all for the knowledge in the world
long tea-time, lackluster, love my own fault, myopia
long tea-time, lackluster, love my own fault, myopia...

Near sighted...Well said Jaime.
