Fit Back In

Feeling like a stranger in my city, and my skin Nothing around here reminds me of anything Evenings growing shorter, and the swallows spread their wings Dislocate me, bend me, shake me, make me fit back in Make me fit back in With the people at the party, and them all are lost Catching my breath behind the bathroom door And I'm having drinks, and saying things, and laughing 'til I'm sore No one around here knows me anymore And another half won't shine in half a light Another day that came my way and passed me by Swallowed by the night Feeling like I'm lying, deciding my old lines Life goes on and back to work, and "thank you, I'm alright" I can't remember what I need, somebody read my mind Crack me open, come pull up the blinds And another half won't shine in half a light I wish I could keep the days from passing by Drift upstream, and travel back in time Find your hand and hold it tight in mine Moon-set, sunrise, time doesn't heal It just goes by, it just goes by Sunset, moon-rise, time doesn't heal It just goes by, it just goes by Tuck you in, I know your skies It just goes by, it just goes by Medicine and weary eyes It just goes by, it just goes by And summer birds, and winter flies It just goes by, it just goes by Spring and fall, and bloom and die It just goes by, it just goes by, it just goes by
