lyrics

What a perfect ending to an awful year
To watch you pack and disappear
Now things are quiet, and they've settled down
But your ghost still haunts the shadows of this ever-haunted town

Just take a minute
Just take a breath
You can climb on down from inside your head
Were you tortured the same way I am by things you want to say?
Were you lost until you found the things you lost along the way?

But hours in an ambulance will never dull the pain
These scars you have to live with

I just wanted you to know, but never knew the way
I'm clear inside my head, but never know just what to say
And here it goes again, heart breaks as it's on the mend
If misery loves company, then why is no one here with me?

Did you pull away from everybody else?
Always rejecting anybody's help
Did you wake up in the gutter and wonder how it got so bad?
Did you clean yourself and crawl out the next day to wander back?

A life spent in the hospital made me a nervous wreck
These scars you have to live with, from your heart up to your neck


I just wanted you to know, but never knew the way
I'm clear inside my head, but never know just what to say
And that's the way it goes, heart breaks as I overdose
If misery loves company, then why is no one here with me?

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
And that's the way it goes, heart breaks as I overdose again
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh

I wrote you on your birthday, but didn't hear from you on mine
I finally get the message, you won't hear from me next time
No, I never meant to bother, or be the thorn stuck in your side
I'll leave you here in peace, my dear…

I can run from this no longer, no matter how I try
You burn inside my memory for the rest of my hard life
Though I never will forget you, you don't have to fear
I hear you when you say to me, "There's nothing for you here"

There's nothing for you here
There's nothing for you here
No, there's nothing for you here
