You've fallen in and out of my life
Sure it seem like the most convenient thing to do at the time
But between bones and skin stretched in
Rise attendance I never could explain
So let me go 'cause I'm better as a memory to you
When it's time to cry, remember when
Just let me start over again
I'LL GET IT RIGHT, I'LL GET IT RIGHT
ALL IN DUE TIME
For the end of pauses between conversations
We grow impatient, we ignore, the wrong ways linger then
Always the devil lies in the details
It's seems to me that
WE BUILD THE GREATEST MONUMENTS
TO THE THINGS WE KNOW BUT LEAVE UNSAID
WE DIG OURSELVES INTO THE DIRT
IN OUR BEST SHOES AND FAVORITE SHIRT
We'll break pencils, dry up pens
And writers will write, never sing
The so called adventure of our lives
Stay confined behind state lines
Are we reflections, next in succession
