Heavy Gloom

(album: The Story So Far - 2007)

I know all your flaws and most of your fears
I haven't been home a lot in the last two years
The constant absence from all my peers
The vibration still steady inside my ears
And I know you hate it, I always restate it
But I'm still so frustrated 'cause I'm the one you cheated

It cuts so much deeper
Why would I wanna see her?
Only had one beer
And I don't wanna sleep here

I hope you feel that heavy gloom
When you're all done up in a crowded room
And your life trips up over those shoes
That you paid too much for but not in dues
And I'll be watching from a distance
Wouldn't wanna miss this
Was it fake the whole time? Was it just instance?
Man, it's so personal, yet it's business
I want it to hit so close to home

It cuts so much deeper
Why would I wanna see her?
Only had one beer
And I don't wanna sleep here
And I know you don't care
You've made it so clear
Swore I had no fear
Not until you came near

And how much does it cost
To get you back here inside those clubs
That you love so fucking much?
Was I too harsh in my lament to you
That I fell so out of touch?
Back and forth because I can't understand how you
Control all my lust and form the words on my tongue

It cuts so much deeper
Why would I wanna see her?
Only had one beer
And I don't wanna sleep here
And I know you don't care
You've made it so clear
Swore I had no fear
Not until you came near
It cuts so much deeper
Why would I wanna see her?
Only had one beer
And I don't wanna sleep here
And I know you don't care
