Sinking In

(album: To Whom It May Concern - 2003)

This is a drag
That it's too late now
And I wanted to tell you
That I was wrong

I didn't realize
I still hold on to you
But I still do

Was it that I turned everyone against you?
Was it that I didn't defend you?
Was it that I never had your back?
Was it that I was always trying to save you?
And you never wanted me to
Or was it that I loved you?

You don't seem to see me sinking in, do you?
You're not content in your own head, are you?
You just want to kick me once again, don't you?
Don't you, baby?

I did it again
I don't stop paying
You don't look so good to me my friend
Is it because of me
I really left this time
Did you ever say goodbye?

Was it that I had a crush on your friend
Was it that I left for another man
Was it that I didn't know
That you were in over your head

And I didn't see what
I had did I
No, I didn't
And uh

Was it that everyone would just kiss my ass
I couldn't see through it and you could
And now look what's come of us here ten years later

I jump from one to the other
You're still worrying your mother
And I almost went under, baby
