On The Shore 06:05
can you feel it, in your skin, in your bones  can you see it, now i’m real, now i’m gone  when i’m reaching, for something, i fall short  of the sea, of the sand, of the shore  paint me a portrait of someone i could have been, let me know  give me a reason to repeat the same old shit or let me go  pick and choose, it’s all the same, nothing better, play the game  [a man has his limits, a man has his…] 
nothing happens anymore, i’ve reached the peak i’m on my own again 
  can you feel it, in your skin, in your bones  can you see it, now i’m real, now i’m gone  when i’m reaching, for something, i fall short  of the sea, of the sand, of the shore  and ill keep on moving, leave what could of been to wash away  savour these moments, you might not live to die another day  win or lose, it’s all the same, cheat the rules, break the game  [this man has his limits, this man has his…]  afterthoughts can’t join the dots, my memory is blank - let’s start again  can you feel it, in your skin, in your bones  can you see it, now i’m real, now i’m gone  when i’m reaching, for something, i fall short  of the sea, of the sand, of the shore

[1]  i don’t know  what there is to say  i am through with you,  are you through with me?  [2]  i’m not okay,  the shape i’m in  these last few days  have stretched me paper thin  [3]  so take it slow  theres no second tries  i will grit my teeth  and i will wipe your eyes  [4]  the greatest part  of me, was you  we’d sit all day + watch the blossom fall  and the rain fall too  [5]  so i took your name  and i made something good  your words mean to me  more than they should  [6]  that misty road  your woeful stare  we’re going home  to anywhere  we’re going home  to anywhere

pack your bags take the morning off to write some songs to catch your breath this is not what’s going on it’s not your fault you’ve done nothing wrong you’ve done nothing wrong you’ve done nothing wrong what’s going on what’s going on lie with me and work me out take your time forget it all this old house and these old walls are yours as well but not for long but i miss it still, the knowledge of what’s going on what’s going on what’s going on what’s going on

am i young enough to not belong here? am i wise enough? i’ve got no idea am i old enough to know what you know ? am i dumb enough to go where you’d go? me myself and i keep on moving me myself and i keep on dancing me myself and i keep on talking me myself and i on the other side am i brave enough to go without you ? am i rich enough to pay myself too? am i small enough wherever i go? am i not enough? well only i know and i’m moving by myself dancing by myself talking by myself walking by myself but i’d break bread with you if you would come around and i am wondering just what you’re doing now are you still here? did you go home? d’you even know? did you find out just how it feels to be alone?

oh i feel the darkness come i can feel it growing inside my lungs oh i feel it grow under my skin just be forward, where do i begin oh i feel the rocks begin to break smash the silence with our mistakes oh i feel the burden on my shoulders is it my fault? is it my time yet? and though i stand so tall, i’m broken down a sullen wind has swept across the town i’m by your side, another’s on my mind does it matter? nothing matters anymore

i don’t. i don’t
 i’m gone. i’m gone 

nothing. nothing 
gets me on the road 

i don’t know what is meant to be 
i don’t know what is meant for me
 my love. undone

 take a bow - you’re never coming back 

you don’t leave no chance for me. you don’t need the stars or the seas
 you don’t need to come away with him tonight.
 i don’t know, where i fall i go 
and all i have is you 
 and february took from me 
all remnants of the truth savaged whole pathetic soul my friends cannot contend take me, break me, contradict me 
take my breath and go
