This is a song for the emotionally distant

This is a song for a guy who has lost feeling

This is a song for false compassion

This is a song for the fun of it all

I know now. I know now

On the sidewalk we study

Reason and relate all while staring down

And we're out of luck

We can't weeble-wobble our way up again

We hold onto our friends as if they were around

You can't go through life thinking it drags you down

And when you feel that feeling's left you. (I can surmise)

And when you don't think you can step right. (I can surmise)

If you're afraid where life has left you

You'll be hunching your back

Your hands in your pockets

Shuffling along and reading that sidewalk until you're dead

This is a song for the drunken monologues

This is a song for the will to need someone

This is a song for those who wanna hear themselves talk. This is a song for the booze that brings it on

I know now. (You wish you did) I know now

I know all about lost time and our self-centered drunken minds

An audience for dramatics, you'll always have mine

Because when you feel that feeling's left you

And when you don't feel you can step right

This is a song for a guy expecting more

This is a song that I'll try to forget

This is a song for a questionable future

This is a song for me
