lyrics

Step one is understanding
All that I want is to fit in
I want to be myself again
So I can stand up tall like a monument
If I could be anything at all, I'd be your anchor
I know you'd need me
And we will sink with all that could have been
Step two is breathing deeply
Exhale the poison from your lungs
I'll be the one you forgot
Keep me around as an afterthought

Will you remember waking up inside my arms when we are far apart
Or will the distance be too far for you to see?
Will you remember when i'm gone?We could've had everything
Will my words become the soundtrack to your apathy?
When you say goodnight
Do you mean goodbye?

Such a damn shame that this band broke up, but buy the record anyway. A bit of a grungy punk sound with all the pop sensibilities you can fit into 10 tracks. Aj LaGambina
