Too Close To See

A cup of two day old coffee You're feeling like yourself again You're still on your own, you've survived another night In this dingy room with the same four walls Looking in the mirrors getting easier these days That old friend anger is losing its hold on you The key to survival in this crazy world And it's good to see you're still standing strong Not too long ago you were tearing at a world That would never let you in Strung out, outcast turned away You kept your face to the ground And fought the world with your silence And so the seasons change And the people change And the good times come And the good times go Found yourself in a winless race Fighting for a cause you never believed Its easy to regret not so easy to forget All the stupid things that used to hold you down You gotta brake that chain and move on 'Cause I know I've seen it in your eyes before To surrender now to throw it all away Is a sacrifice that you can't repay In a world that don't owe you shit You gotta think for yourself And fight every bit of that piece of mind That keeps you going on Gets you outta bed and out that door Get back take a look around and soon You'll find there's something more That'll come your way With a little patience It will all work out for you in the end This is my song to a friend that never needed anyone until now Some times you get too close to see A different side of what life could be And if you stare too long It all becomes a blur and its easy to forget just who we are Don't stare to hard, just take a look around ...
