Adrift Lyrics

	


out my window it rains 
it cleanses through you upon you 
the eyes of a closer kind 
can only see this through 
after all it's just a lifetime 
fifty yard line the great divide 
once again we looked into those 
days of wrong and right 

this drink has just drained me of my disguise 
all right 
it's what i've been waiting for this time 
weight of this time 
i'm out of my mind 
shipwrecked here within reach of my peers 
should i set myself adrift 
any way out is fine 
she lives this through 
he lives this through 
it's not too hard to make your words worth speaking 
it's taking our shadows off this ground of recluse 

more years and less fears 
we've grown old but all we need is one hour 
to race back and take back 
what was ours and will always be 
it's not a coincidence we've come to this point 
i'll always be waiting every night 
a lonesome night 
fight the thought of old times 
now did all your missing fridays stop just to get away 
to get away 
you'll try to become the wall standing tall 
this brick memorial of stories from our past 
though carved in stone each scene erodes with time 

i'm drowning to take in my obsessions 
it heals fine 
i'll always be here until you die 
come out you've dried 
try this crowd is not right 
this goner's shipwrecked party stalled 
i fade away 
and did not all your liquid fridays 
start to just to get away again 
and if all your missing fridays stop 
they'll begin again 
we'll miss you when you hide 

we become the wall 
when all our short stories become volumes 
in our heads they are reflecting on the sky 
and bitter blue 
we become the wall when you've seen it all
it reflects off the sky 
i've been that blue

i think this song is about a guy who was dumped by a girl, and years later he remembers her and thinks that it is fate for them to be together, but she doesnt feel the same, so while he keeps waiting for her to come back he tries to drink his problems away. well thats what i think, J18 is amazing any way you look at it.
