"Echo" lyrics
"Echo"
Put down your things and rest awhile
You know we've both nowhere to go
Yeah, daddy had to crash
He's always halfway there you know
And no, I don't pretend there's any more of that
They say one day, you'll look up and laugh and hear
The same sad echo when you walk
Yeah, the same sad echo when you talk loud and clear
It's the same as the same sad echo around here
I promise you this winter
I will worship you like gold
And ride your train forever
Electric fortunes to be told
And I don't want to question or even celebrate
All the joy you took and then gave back too late
It's the same sad echo when you lie
It's the same sad echo when you try to be clear
It's the same as the same sad echo around here
Well, I woke up right here
In a pool of sweat
With a box of pills and you
Yeah, and I'm gonna keep my head
I'm gonna keep my cool
Oh, I'm so in love with you
Yes and in another world nothing was like this
There may have been a girl
There never was a kiss
The poison came in liquid
She was naked all the time
And no one could explain it
It was all between the lines
And I don't seem to trust anyone no more
It could be faith I'm just not sure
It's the same sad echo every day
Yeah the same sad echo another way
When you call
It's the same as the same sad echo most of all
Oh, you just got tired
You just gave in
You took it hard
Then you just quit
You let me down
You dropped the ball
You fell on your face most of all
And I don't wanna mean anything to you
I don't want to tempt you to be true
It's the same sad echo comin' down
It's the same sad echo all around in my ears
It's the same as the same sad echo around here
