lyrics

I watched the world
Tear it's self apart from a school desk circa 1941
And I knew
That I broke that young girls heart in a coffee shop circa 1954

But that was then
And now is now
Set fire to the present cause
They learned just to smoke you out
Given all your sins and prior consequences

Don't you say it gets better tomorrow
Don't you try and make light of today
Cause I spent all night writing down all these sins
In hopes the good lord can for give and forget

And you get use to counting the seconds the minutes the hours the god damn years
And you would give anything to remember anything

But that was then
And now is now
Set fire to the vagabond the one the world could do without
Given all you've wronged
Who would care your gone

I spent every night staring at lurid maps
Wondering the colors of sights ill never see

I've packed all my bags and polished on my finest shoes
Waiting for the dismal life to catch me in my sleep

I'm frightened and cold
Violently bold
Swear I'll burn this awful place
Right to the god damn ground

I've lost it again
Tossed all this water
Know these stones that I throw won't mean a thing

Don't you say it gets better tomorrow
Don't you try and make light of today
Cause I spent all night writing down all these sins
In hopes the good lord can forgive and forget

Don't you say it gets better tomorrow
Don't you try and make light of today
Cause i spent all night writing down everything
To know that this is finally
The end
