If this is all just a matter of time
and time doesn't matter outside of our minds
then it's strange how I keep losing grip on the line
I will hold on to this for you
I will hold on to this for you tonight
I see the best, except when it's me
and I'd like to see more things anonymously
cuz too much is relative, and nothing is free
but I'll hold on to this for you
I will hold on to this for you tonight
and I have my questions
and I have the lies that I told
and I'm always checking my past
looking over my back at you
when I needed to go
and I thought you should know
When in two directions the tunnel is black
and I'm not sure how far it is forward or back
I will keep moving forward, I promised you that
I will hold on to this for you
I will hold on to this for you tonight
How to lose before beginning:
Cut the tie when it comes loose
Find a girl to try and save
and wait for one to save you too
see, the station sign it rattles
down the boxes stop and start
I used to walk this place with you
the waiting's not the hardest part
and now you're gone
and I'm not done
now you're gone
now you're gone and I'm not done with you
Wonder if you still remember
the time I tried to cook for you
didn't know what I was doing
22 with too much to prove
so I put in a dozen peppers
because I know you liked it hot
the food was a complete disaster
you could've left, but you did not
and now you're gone
and I'm not done
now you're gone
now you're gone and I'm not done with you
I am stranded
in our past life
I been here a while, but you've been gone a long time
we are tangled
in your perfect lines
I keep going your way, but I don't want to lose mine
if you come back around
with that new found look in your eye
I can't deny you
Don't want to try to
station sign keeps on moving
used to mean I'd come this far
I used to know why I was here
the waiting's not the hardest part
and now you're gone
and I'm not done
now you're gone
I am stranded
in our past life
I been here a while, but you've been gone a long time
we are tangled
in your perfect lines
I keep going your way, but I don't want to lose mine
if you come back around
with that new found look in your eye
I can't deny you
Don't want to try to
How to lose before beginning:
Cut the tie when it comes loose
Find a girl to try and save
and wait for one to save you too
