Just Down the Road

You live just down the road I wave to you on days back home And early mornings to the same old place To do the same old things You always said I'd make it big That I'd find my light one day I've been standing in this hallway of open doors Twenty-four years and I've always stayed Nothing really good seems to change And I wanna make you proud I wanna see you smiling down But I ain't too sure that you'd like the man I am now Or the man I'm trying to be Why isn't it all a little easier to see Oh, I lost my fighting bones Someone came and broke me open Now I'm picking up the pieces You live just down the road I talk to your gravestone now and then
