one of their old demos and theyre being generous. Lovely.

Lyrics:
Live your life
your at one with yourself
maybe I
didnt see it that way
So unwind
led by somebody else
didnt care
kept real feelings at bay
Where was I when you kept it in?
Far too close with my obscure view
where was I when you wept inside
where was I was I was closed to you?
Because I always meant to hold you
the way that i should have
I always meant to tell you
that it was ok
And I always meant to show you
things werent that bad
even if they seemed that way
even if they seemed that way.
I m alone
but im crowded with friends
I figured out
what I couldnt have done
powdered nose
like you make your own ends
finding peace
with just a drink and a gun
where was I when you cut your face?
far away, right by your side
where was I when you made that descision?
where was I when the universe died?
Because I always meant to hold you
the way that I should have
I always meant to show you
that it was ok
And I always meant to tell you
things werent that bad
even if they seemed that way
even if they seemed that way.
And I always meant to touch you
Like nobody else had
and I always meant to give you
a reason to stay
And I never ever did that
And I couldve saved you
maybe things just seemed that way
maybe things just seemed that way
maybe things just seemed that way
maybe things just seemed that way.
Thanks, and enjoy.
