We were close
Close but no cigar
I guess it just wasn't in the cards
And my high hopes
Are a dream I forgot
They need a shot, need a shot in the arm

I should have felt that following my footsteps
But fear muffled all of the sound
You went flush in the face
Pumping blood through my veins
When you laid your body down

I have a hard time 
With saying goodbye 
When I don't know where the new road starts
And my white lies 
Help me fight off the fire
And come to terms with the way things are

And I should have felt that following my footsteps
But fear muffled all of that sound
And I was afraid but it all went away
When you laid your body down

This don't happen so often 
between the womb and the coffin
No this don't happen every day 
On your way from the womb to the grave
And all that architecture wont protect you
The walls all litter the ground
Every brick I laid up and withered away
When you laid your body down

We were close
Close but no cigar
I guess it just wasn't in the cards
And my high hopes 
Are a dream I forgot
They need a shot, need a shot in the arm
