    Story Behind the Song
    id been fiddling around with the guitar part for some time, and i remember thinking i would just put it down for a while, which turned into a year, kept getting frustrated with the synths among other things, the lyrics started to formalize in a fantasy world about this bartender i had a crush on at this bar i used to go to. i guess it's a bit of a warning too, on how i've always been one to change who i am to get what i want even though things including myself, will eventually go back to how they belong.

    Lyrics
    she slips her hand onto my arm
    while her boyfriend works behind the bar
    a twist of the head lets her hair flow down
    i grab my coat and turn around
    -
    i can see
    this would happen to me
    if i let this
    continue
    and go
    the way it would go
    if i let it continue
    -

    i tell her i dont feel anything
    the guilt is building inside of me
    she whispers "he won't suspect a thing"
    this is my future and my warning
    -
    if i lose myself
    and let this go
    i could never
    expect anyone
    to stay
    more then a single
    -
    day, after today
    i promise to change
    so long as i can stay
    the same
    way, you wanted me
    you say that ill see
    all i could be
    if only id stay
    the same
    -

    i guess i haven't given up hope
    still 10 feet before the end of the rope
    i think i like being alone
    i can get in my car and hit the road
    -
    ride my hand
    in the air
    carry my thoughts
    to a bridge i burnt
    a girl who just
    wanted my love for a day
    -
    fall into my arms
    i promise to change
    so long as i can stay
    the same
    way, you wanted me
    you say that ill see
    all i could be
    if only id stay
    the same
