lyrics

I never thought that anyone could feel the same way
The walls are getting closer and the rooms spinning again
Time moves slow it always seems till it gets pissed away
I’m over my bad habit’s but I’ll quit another day

I chase the small things but they always get away
I’m looking for another way

Well I don’t know what to do
But I’ve got nothing to lose
So say the word and I will run away with you

Well I’m paying all my dues
And dreaming of old news
I’m sick of being stuck in these nostalgia blues

Every time I hear that song I think about your face
and remember the first time that we snuck into your place
I feel like I’m too old to be caught up in yesterdays
I’m getting sick of hanging out and wasting time away

One day I’ll figure out how it all got away
and why I always I think about you
I chase the small things but they always get away
I’m looking for another way
