LYRICS

The story unfolds, there’s nowhere to go, eventually I knew that this was coming down. Empty closets, cardboard boxes. The worst part of everything is losing grip on the things I believed in. These songs on the radio keep telling me to move on. And all that you say, smiles that you fake, it all tells me right now I’m on the right way, taking the right steps for the sake of sanity. I’ll wait for the light in this darkness where I am, because I know it’s just temporary. I will overcome, you will be sorry. Mark my words! Words come and go, promises in the air, suddenly it’s all the same, you’ll never change. Keep on talking, I want nothing. The best part of everything is learning from mistakes I’ve committed. The T.V was kept on but now nothing’s showing up. Because I know it’s just temporary I will overcome, you will be sorry. Mark my words!
