Across Five Years

(album: After The Eulogy - 2000)

I said I'm crazy one more time
Picked up the phone and wondered why
So many years of hidden dreams
Pushed down too far to ever win

Locked doors and hidden ghosts
Denied myself with every joke
This was not me
This could never be me

Locked doors and hidden ghosts
Denied myself with every joke
This was not me
This could never be me

Remembering so many times
So many lies, so many lies
Ran so fast the years passed blind
So much time lost killing five

Locked doors and hidden ghosts
Denied myself with every joke
This was not me
This could never be me

Locked doors and hidden ghosts
Denied myself with every joke
This is not me
This is not me
This is not me
This could never be me
This is not me
This is not me
This is not me
This could never be me

Whatever poison you may drink
Another list of "no"s persist
Antique and out of reach
I lost my life and take it back

Crashed this side of happiness
Hit the floor or hit and miss
Without the strength to follow through
Walked right past this life in you

Just one more kiss
Just one more chance
Just one more life
Circumstance
Just one more call
Taking a chance on circumstance

Just one more kiss
Just one more chance
Just one more life
Circumstance
Just one more call
Taking a chance on circumstance
