this road is just too far
from the place i've left inside me when i'm gone
i remembered yesterday that i promised i would stay
but today i seem to be so far away
 
down this road i once again can't explain the way it
cuts my throat to see the way i've disappointed you but
once again i'll run away and search for something
that will bring you satisfaction once again
 
the pain is so surreal
hard to deal with sins of anger sins that kill
like the tangled up expressions on your face
when i gave you that one final last embrace
 
down this road i once again can't explain the way it
cuts my throat to see the way i've disappointed you but
once again i'll run away and search for something
that will bring you satisfaction once again
 
i'll never remember why i ever thought there would be peace
i'll never forget the day that i had to walk home
i'll never be better or good no matter what i do
you were always too damn ignorant to even recognize the truth

look at what you've put me through
what have i ever done to you
i need to grow you need to know
i won't be the shadow at your feet
inclined to travel along these fences
you put all around your lonesome street
 
down this road i've once again lost my way because i
lost the things that mattered most and i hate the way it always
cuts my throat you were never there the way i needed you
but i will never need you once again
no, i won't ever need you once again
