In the park at night, the same place that I learned to drive
Decided I was cutting ties, and never came to say goodbye
And it seems true of fate that I should move on Mother's Day
Crying in the parking lot
Jesus, someone, make it stop
Was it all that you wanted and then some?
You couldn't leave 'em at all, if you tried to
At the party, see her glance
Bought her drinks to make amends
Let's forget about the time we spent waking up in stranger's beds
That was in a different life, before we knew the bounds of time
That hurries on and never stops
Jesus, someone, make it stop
And my brother, he's old now
He doesn't cling to my hand like he used to
So I wonder, have I sold out?
Have I wasted all the moments we're reduced to?
Was it all that you wanted and then some?
You couldn't leave 'em at all, if you tried to
This is all that i want 'til my time comes
I never want it to end, but it has to
So are you old now? Did you wise up?
Did you see it doesn't turn out like you hoped for?
I'm old now, and I've dried up
That feeling that it turns out like you'd hoped for
I want to live just long enough to miss the minute that you die
Want to live in repetition 'til like Bill I get it right
And I'll see you at the finish line and you'll hobble over
The angry curses, ugly cries and lies all cobbled over
Time goes on, the curses, cries and lies get cobbled over
Was it all that you wanted and then some?
You couldn't leave 'em at all, if you tried to
This is all that I want 'til my time comes
I never want it to end, but it has to
