lyrics

I guess I didn't know what I was doing
I guess I didn't realize why time felt like sand running
And I would try to get as high as I could
And if I could change myself I would

Oh I would gladly get lost in this town
Follow every little back alley sound
Keep myself totally alone
While walking the sand steps to my home

And when the world cuts me to my bone
I would return to the only place I own
In this cave I play games until the dawn
Numbing my head until the mind is truly gone

Yeah you've got to decide to just simply start
Find some people who will ignite that fire in your heart
They will stick with you almost 'till the end
They will listen, and yes they will mend

Escaping in to worlds that the computer feeds to me
After all these battles the clock would strike to three
And I would get up exhausted and think of the world I once had
But I'd leave it anyway and say to myself “Now's not the time for that”

Never be afraid of what the world wants from you
It only needs the answers you have found to be true
We all have our place and believe me when I tell you this
Accepting yourself is the hardest thing there is

But baby you'll find comfort in knowing
It's only a matter of getting going
There is no force in this world that can put a stop to this
You just have to take aim and you'll never truly miss

Escaping in to worlds that the computer feeds to me
After all these battles the clock would strike to three
And I would get up exhausted and think of the world I once had
But I'd leave it anyway and say to myself “Now's not the time for that”
