Never worked, sad and slow

Should have been that long ago

I've been giving it everything I've got

We don't talk about it much

It's still too difficult to touch

Look me in the eye and say it's not

Well, I want some answers

And I want to blame

'Cause the streets around my house, they're just not the same

And you, I promised in 2002

That I'd give this off to you

They say time, it heals things

It hasn't yet and it still stings

We're all wondering where the hell you went

Keeping my sunglasses on

I'm tired of being asked what's wrong

Learned the hard way about the permanent

Well, it's way too often

We still break down from chasing your ghost

All over town

You, I promised in 2002

That I'd give this off to you

I promised in 2002

That I'd give this off to you
