On My Own

(album: Phoenix - 2010)

It's nights like these, I can't erase
What I would give for open space
A breath of fresh air in this stale place
Where each minute is more than I can take
And I know that I should
I wouldn't even change it if I thought I could
I held on for so long
Now time is telling me that I am on my own
But I'm holding strong

I'm falling to pieces
I'm living each day like it's my last
'Cause we had it all, we had it all
And we threw it away, and we threw it all away
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces

And I've left my mark in foreign lands
Spent winter nights in vacant vans
Sleeping off my latest regrets
And longing for what could have been
And I know, it's all
Just part of answering the call
But my bones are cold
And my feet are searching for the open road
And I'm on my own

I'm falling to pieces
I'm living each day like it's my last
'Cause we had it all, we had it all
And we threw it away, and we threw it all away
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces

This life we lead will be the death of me
I've seen things no man should ever see

I'm falling to pieces
I'm living each day like it's my last
'Cause we lost it all

I'm falling to pieces
I'm living each day like it's my last
'Cause we had it all, we had it all
And we threw it away
I'm falling to pieces
I'm living each day like it's my last
'Cause we had it all, we had it all
And we threw it away, and we threw it all away
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
(I've seen things no man should ever see)
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
I've seen things no man should ever see
