Bedford Falls - Knuckle Puck

the cracks in the street outside this house

are not the only thing that misery surrounds

i know you hate yourself

it’s the only common ground that we can depend on

and it kills me to see your face because you never deserved this

and while I’m dying at this desk, you’re dying in your head

the life you always dreamt;

I’m living it instead

all the things i thought i earned were never mine all along

you emptied every pocket to bail me out of bedford falls

and i owe you everything.

my life included.

for sacrificing happiness while i stay secluded

i sailed away from you

on a vessel that i made from all the things you gave to me

it’s keeping me afloat, but i still worry

because I’m treading in this sea of doubt in my self consciousness

and all you want is for me to be happy.

all the things i thought i earned were never mine all along

you emptied every pocket to bail me out of bedford falls

and i owe you everything.

my life included.

for sacrificing happiness while i stay secluded.

fucked and complacent

condemned to my basement

get lost in these tracks while you’re lost on that bridge where you stand.

there’s nothing but guilt left inside.

you go home and sit alone every night.

it never seemed fair to me.

i’d be nothing without you.

i’d break through the ice and i’d drown in my self-centered abyss.

and i’d never have a home without cutting down your branches.
