Story Behind the Song
An old friend moves back to the place of his adolescence to live with his best friend from years ago. Things don't quite turn out how he envisioned.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
So I moved a million miles or more
just to show up at your front door.
And it's hard cause I can't see
what makes you want to live with me, yeah.
Done so much in my old life,
brought it back still causin' strife.
And I try so hard to be,
what it is you want me to be
So reach out and grab my hand,
Tell me how to understand...
[Chorus]
Feels like I'm dying
Know that I'm trying
What can I do to make me happy too?
Feels like I'm falling
On bloody knees and crawling
Like a once in a lifetime shooting star
I'm trying and it's really hard.
[Verse 2]
Got no job but I try,
Keeps getting harder as days go bye
Don't see you as much as I'd like to
Do you still feel the same way that you used to?
And it's hard cause I don't know,
If I'll fade away as the wind blows.
Help me up and help me out,
show me love so there's no doubt.
Tell me how I can make my way,
Cos I just keep slipper further away.
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I'm torn between what's you an me.
I'm hoping that one day you'll see.
Just what you want, and what I got.
I pray that the difference is not a lot.
So give me what you got to give.
And try to show me how to live.
And it's hard cause I know you're right.
I just wanna be me tonight.
And know you're understanding's the only way,
I'll ever live to see a brighter day.
[Chorus]
[Outro]
I'll always do what you want me to,
Just don't break my liveliness in two.
Know I'll never wanna make you sad,
Hurt your feelings and make you feel bad.
So know, that you'll care for me,
And I'm sure I'll learn to be happy.
So know that I'll care for you,
I just want to feel you're caring too...
