Living in a lonely world Shuffling down a dead end street I can’t believe it And some offer empty words Telling me they’ve got my back But they don’t mean it Like a transmission stuck in first Or coming through in garbled tones Can’t even hear it I cast a line in a long dead pond Trying to reel the past back in But she don’t feel it When she walked away She took my everything She took my only friend No matter how I tried She wouldn’t let me make it right When she walked away She took my everything She took my only friend No matter how I tried She wouldn’t let me make it right Carrying a heavy load Driven into the ground I begin to stagger Paralyzed by my own mind Chained like an old sled dog My pride is shattered Staring at the rafters above And mulling over pros and cons That don’t even matter An occupation of my thoughts 'Will they find me hanging around Or find a splatter?' When she walked away She took my everything She took my only friend No matter how I tried She wouldn’t let me make it right When she walked away She took my everything She took my only friend No matter how I tried She wouldn’t let me make it right
