Once inside the door I check my face in the mirror,

As I look past this lonely minute

Was this the ride worth waiting for

I'm scared to death that now I've missed it

But she was not the only stone, skipped across this gravel road

leading down the path of loneliness

So I'll fly from this hate, pray my soul the lord will take me

To a place through time and indifference



I wanna know how do you feel

I wanna know if this was real

Then tell me what would you say

If you can make this pain go away



She plans her future looking bright ahead

Leaves me in the past.

I can't stand to hang out with my codependent friends

My patience fading fast

But every sign and every song is telling me I don't belong,

But it's O.K. to feel scared

'Cause one day soon I'll find myself and realize that no one else

Will make me feel stupid!



There's this old man down in Fell's Point,

Always hanging around

Telling me, "Son, the pendulum swings both ways

But for you, It'll always swing down
