Out of Touch

Don't just stare me down
Like you've taught me you could do so many times
When you're not kind
A hundred promises
Might think I'm special but I'm breaking every one
Believe me, I'm not done
You promise not to laugh
I got a mirror and I'll throw your hatred back
So just relax
But if time's so precious
You spend it hoping for days to come and go
Yea, let me know
I got a couple bucks
I got a job but the money don't mean much
When you're falling out of touch
Cause you can't believe
The dreams of sadness that are weighing on your heart
You're too smart
Cause time's subjective
We're changing colors like the leaves upon the trees
Please don't leave

Doors with locks and windowpanes
I swore not to speak your name
Sing my songs and hope to change
Weave my pattern through the days
We were wild and named the birds
No regard for what they were
This one's gone but that remains
Children peer out through the rain
Just be patient with your heart
You've got questions, that's a start
Tides will push and pull you down
Simple knives, they stab at you
Whisper what you ought to do
When you laugh I hope you're healed
May your mysteries be revealed
Or remain as mysteries
Answers are not what they seem
Picture frame with family smiles
Haven't seen them for a while
I wish I was where you are
I can't think when we're apart
Sleeping like a fool, inside
Cars along the interstate
Humming their song
Broken heart and anchor down
Still I sing along
Many a day come and go
I'm still the same
Idle rests a thorn inside
No lover to blame
Love is just a metaphor
Of things safe inside
Mirrors only you can see
When you close your eyes
