The Corner

(album: The Illusion Of Progress - 2008)

It sheltered me from nothing but the weather
I called it home for a moment of my life
This place I see just doesn't look familiar
I wonder if it looks the same inside

So there's the corner that I sat on
The road I walked home in the rain
And there's the star I used to wish on
It all just seems like yesterday

Days go by, and nothing's getting clearer
Can't change my mind, my troubles are the same
The faces change. The names. They are familiar
And the streets I see will stand the test of time

So there's the corner that I sat on
The road I walked home in the rain
And there's the star I used to wish on
It all just seems like yesterday

And those stars (And those stars)
Stars still shine (Stars still shine)
Shine down through the rain (Down through the rain)

And there's the corner that I sat on (The corner that I sat on)
The road I walked home in the rain (Walked home in the rain)
And there's the star I used to wish on (Star I used to wish on)
It all just seems like yesterday (Seems like yesterday)

And I stare out this dirty window (Stare out this dirty window)
Has this world gone slowly by (World gone slowly by)
And somewhere out there is the future (Out there is the future)
That I once thought had passed me by (Thought had passed me by)

It sheltered me from nothing but the weather
