These days are dark and the nights are cold
People acting like they lost their soul
And
everywhere I go I see another person like me
Trying to make it all feel like home
These days are dark and the nights are cold
People acting like they lost their soul
And
everywhere I go I see another person like me
Trying to make it all feel like home
Standing on the bridge in the
dark and I'm seeing my breath
Trying to make it home without freezing to death
And my grandfather's face is stuck in
my mind and how
Seeing him tonight's gonna be the last time
I should've brought a jacket
Blowing in my hands like it's really gonna stop the chill
I
buy a cup of coffee with a five dollar bill thinking
Laying in that box people look so still
At times like these you
start thinking
Your first breath in and the clock starts ticking
I'm not trying to bum anyone out
Not trying to be
dramatic just thinking out loud
I'm just trying to make some sense in my mind
Some defense from the cold that I'm feeling
outside and for a minute
Escape with some rhythm and rhyme and
Get away from the grey
Just a bit at a time
Yeah
Kinda funny how this world can treat you
Like a freak in a sideshow a carnival creature
Climbing
outta cans I'm a diamond in the sand
But you can't tell the difference on a beach full of rhinestones
My life's like
trying to swallow a pinecone
It's tough when you live fast just to die slow
Talk to dial tones my dreams are far-fetched
It
seems so I sleep underneath this park bench
I know it don't make sense
And I don't expect you to know what it's like
Smoke,
drink, piss, sniffing everything in my sight
Push rocks in a pipe
Liftoff, I keep puffin 'til my lips turn white
And
my chest gets tight
But who the fuck really cares, when you're
So far left that even death looks right
All I can
do is hope for the best and pray
That it gets a little better than yesterday
These days are dark and the nights are cold
People acting like they lost their soul
And
everywhere I go I see another person like me
Trying to make it all feel like home
These days are dark and the nights are cold
People acting like they lost their soul
And
everywhere I go I see another person like me
Trying to make it all feel like home
(Tak)
Pardon me, I think I'm next to url
Too many problems going on, that's why I left my girl
Packed
my bags and traveled with a pen and my notepad
Pissed that I was broke and all the things that I don't have
But
still
I try to find a way to escape
From all the hate planted in my head which lead to mistakes
But now I'm breaking
the mold, see I was patient and calm
Many sleep in the rain, but I'm awake in the storm
Writing my life in a short film,
The Rise and Fall
How I managed to scorch hills and climb the walls
Pound pavement, aimless in the cold existence
Even
thought thangs are changing, I'm going the distance
Overcoming the doubt that had controlled for so long
And put it
all behind me, 'cause life still goes on
Now I'm much stronger and know where I stand
While lost souls search over
and over again
These days are dark and the nights are cold
People acting like they lost their soul
And everybody's
trying not to cry, trying to get by
And trying not to feel out of control
And if you look hard enough
Sometimes you'll
find a place that might just remind you of home
But if it doesn't feel like home
You can do what I do
Just pretend
you don't feel so alone
(Feel like home)
(Feel like home)
(Feel like home)
(Feel like home)
(Feel like home)
(Feel like home)
(Feel like home)
