lyrics

Timing never was a friend of mine
Either coming or going just a little behind
I figured someday I would fall in line
But I managed to stay out of step
Got to the party it was out of breath
Empty bottles and stale talk were al that was left
There was confetti in the couch dying an unseen death
But at least I could say I was there
I was there when the bottom fell away
And we danced to the decay
On the chance we’d change someday
When the bottom fell away
I always wanted to feel good here
Never found the footing between freedom and fear
Every time I looked up and my train appeared
I stood still on the platform and wept
A bent shadow as a right hand man
Held me up and back with the same two hands
One foot on the gas and a foot in the sand
I was nowhere but I knew I was there
I was there when the bottom fell way
And we danced to the decay
On the chance we’d change someday
When the bottom fell away
All we could do was stay
Down here so long
It didn’t feel wrong
Digging in for another day
When the bottom fell away
