about

My friend taught me some new chords, and then I remembered a couple more I'd never officially used in a song, and this was what happened.

I'm not sure where this particular combination of wanderlust and regret came from, but they seem to mesh.

lyrics

I lost control
I drifted past the center line
I sold my soul
Signed my name above the dotted line
You rode with me
On the freeway to that open door
We parted ways
Deserving so much less but wanting more

I hope that you'll forgive me, I was desperate then
And we all fall down now and again
I hope that you'll believe me, it was out of my hands
And we all fall down now and again

Perpetuated
By inertia but I should've known
Infatuated
With the thought of never coming home
I wanted calm
Now I never get to be alone
But it's close enough
When you soothe me on the telephone

Nobody's home inside my world
I'll hit the road and won't return
Can't rest until I see your eyes

And it's through the cracks I'm creeping at the cold light of dawn
Don't know why it's calm under my skin
A million miles behind me I can't see what's gone wrong
But we all fall down now and again

Said we all fall down now and again
