"Dead Ends" lyrics
Different days, same old thoughts
Change my path, I'm still off course
Can someone tell me which road I should roam?
Boy, make a left or just go right, but don't you dare stay on this line
You'll only get where dead ends tend to grow
Clip my wings, I'm scared to fly
'Cause ain't that how Icarus died
But living safely has been killing me slowly
Oh, I hate the way that I've let my fears of living life sit between my ears
I can't tell if their even my own
'Cause this drain I'm circling 'round is of late
Has pulled my heart into a doubt with a sewer where dreams get skewered
Now I'm trying to dig them out
This town's making me bitter
My best friend's been hurting my liver
Now I feel best when I can't feel a thing
Oh, I'm so damn close to doing a run
Rather walk with hurt than sit here and suffer
I think it's time I finally up and leave
Where the dead ends meet
There's a poison here that eats away at any other shade that isn't grey
I feel it touching the last bit of pride I saved
So what's a man doing all he can is ask
"How do I leave here?" to men who never have
It's a long way home from the place I call it now
'Cause these dreams, they're the same ones that I've seen
But the view can't change less you start stepping
So I'm start stepping, cutting these wood gates down
This town's making me bitter
My best friend's been hurting my liver
Now I feel best when I can't feel a thing
Oh, I'm so damn close to doing a run
Rather walk with hurt than sit here and suffer
I think it's time I finally up and leave
Where the dead ends meet
Leave it all this time to change my mind
I have no fight to leave this behind
Leave it all this time to change my mind
I have no fight to leave this behind
This town's making me bitter
My best friend's been hurting my liver
Now I feel best when I can't feel a thing
Oh, I'm so damn close to doing a run
Rather walk with hurt than sit here and suffer
I think it's time I finally up and leave
Where the dead ends meet
Waited all this time to change my mind
I have no fight to leave this behind
Waited all this time to change my mind
I have no fight to leave this behind
Change my path, I'm still off course
Can someone tell me which road I should roam?
Boy, make a left or just go right, but don't you dare stay on this line
You'll only get where dead ends tend to grow
Clip my wings, I'm scared to fly
'Cause ain't that how Icarus died
But living safely has been killing me slowly
Oh, I hate the way that I've let my fears of living life sit between my ears
I can't tell if their even my own
'Cause this drain I'm circling 'round is of late
Has pulled my heart into a doubt with a sewer where dreams get skewered
Now I'm trying to dig them out
This town's making me bitter
My best friend's been hurting my liver
Now I feel best when I can't feel a thing
Oh, I'm so damn close to doing a run
Rather walk with hurt than sit here and suffer
I think it's time I finally up and leave
Where the dead ends meet
There's a poison here that eats away at any other shade that isn't grey
I feel it touching the last bit of pride I saved
So what's a man doing all he can is ask
"How do I leave here?" to men who never have
It's a long way home from the place I call it now
'Cause these dreams, they're the same ones that I've seen
But the view can't change less you start stepping
So I'm start stepping, cutting these wood gates down
This town's making me bitter
My best friend's been hurting my liver
Now I feel best when I can't feel a thing
Oh, I'm so damn close to doing a run
Rather walk with hurt than sit here and suffer
I think it's time I finally up and leave
Where the dead ends meet
Leave it all this time to change my mind
I have no fight to leave this behind
Leave it all this time to change my mind
I have no fight to leave this behind
This town's making me bitter
My best friend's been hurting my liver
Now I feel best when I can't feel a thing
Oh, I'm so damn close to doing a run
Rather walk with hurt than sit here and suffer
I think it's time I finally up and leave
Where the dead ends meet
Waited all this time to change my mind
I have no fight to leave this behind
Waited all this time to change my mind
I have no fight to leave this behind
