I don’t care if I grow old
my stomach wil bite with the blistering cold
yeah I feel alright

I will cry and I will drown
I would die in this sleepy little town
yeah I feel alright

And I’ve tried and I’ve cried
and my mind it says don’t love her
but it don’t matter what my hearts got to say

and she’s gone, got to move on
only dreams are meant to shatter
and the tide how it always washes away

and I haven’t laughed in a long time
and it doesn’t really matter to say
that I don’t think about her
and it doesn’t really come my way
if I could then I would doubt her
and life doesn’t really seem to shine
and I don’t think about her
almost always all the time

and I will lie on soiled ground
my whisper leaves without a sound
yeah I feel alright

I don’t know what I’ve been told
but this life isn’t supposed to be this cold
yeah I feel alright

and I’ve built a shield
unable for one to get near
fortified strong
unable for one to hear

disdain and pain
of one who lived here before
when there were no walls, ceiling or floor

happiness shines all around you
and it spreads like the warm sunlight
sadness leeches till it becomes you
strangles love in the middle of the night

and I have built a castle
miles high and miles long
with these walls all around me
I can be hurt by no one

no more damage can be done
to the soul of my fathers son

I don’t really see
better days to come to me
fallin together

I don’t really find
fallen days are lost in time

its all gone
say so long

it’s been a while now
so long sweet child now and its alright

have a joke and a smile
we’ll hang out just for a little while

have a toke and a smile
we’ll hang out just for a little while.
