about

Another early song, written for a longtime friend.

lyrics

Most mistakes I make
Soon come back to haunt me
I felt the morning quake
My number's the same if you want me
I drifted out
I'm guessing I midjudged the distance to the shore

And oh, nothing stays the same
(Except this sad refrain)
Across the water main
(Tattooed with the mark of Cain)
If you can't take the pain
Then please don't feel ashamed
To come in from the rain

You breathed upon my glass
And scribbled with your finger
The memory only lasts
In the places where we linger
You were there
'Cause no one else would say that time was real or fair

No one speaks a word to me as I walk through the door
I'm feeling out of place and out of touch and out of form
And whether you believe me doesn't matter anymore

Most mistakes I make
Soon come back to haunt me
