Tell Her What I Said Lyrics

I look so much older
Most times the pills take away all my dreams
And there's so much I never told her
Her eyes are so pretty they can't even see
That it's more than I'm used to
Lately it all weighs so heavy on me
So I do what I have to
The little that's left of me gets on all right
But I'm too sick and tired to put up a fight
I turn to oblivion night after night
I wait right here
Smoking and drinking
And smoking and
Dropping
When the mind is forsaken
The body's abandoned and the spirit turns black
If I never awaken
At least then I'll have all the answers I lack
You're the last one I'll turn to and
Someday I promise that I'll get you back
And I'll do what I have to
The little that's left of me gets on all right
But I'm too sick and tired to put up a fight
I turn to oblivion night after night
I'll wait right here
Smoking and drinking
And smoking and
Dropping

We all thought we'd be someone
One man's promise means nothing
Against the will of his god
You can't serve two masters
No matter the cause
We all thought we were someone
Will you take redemption
Or watch me fall down from grace?
I've seen all seven devils
And I'm not afraid
We all thought we were somewhere
We all thought we'd be someone
