We spend our down time

On phone lines

In deep conversations

Waiting on weekends

And wishing on vacations

You're losing composure

Alone on the outside

I'd spare you direction

But God knows I've lost mine

I hate to admist that

I'd love to forget this

Leave it behind me

And learn to accept that

The most I cangive you is word that I'm fine

I'm making my exit

It's only a matter of time



Just count on me to say

Everything that's good is gone

Force a smile somehow

All the plans we've made

They're not breaking

If you're not breaking

This can't hold us down



You've been my distraction

My center

My lifeline

A short breathe of fresh air

To make sure I stay high

Never too clever to lend me a kind word

You tell me what you've seen

And I'll tell you what I've heard

My keeping quiet is simply a habit

That looks to collapse me

As you can imagine

But what doesn't kill us

Will just make us stronger

So we'll hold this in for

A little bit longer



Just count on me to say

Everything that's good is gone

Force a smile somehow

All the plans we've made

They're not breaking

If you're not breaking

This can't hold us down



If you fall away

You fall into winter

And spring into action

Until summer can thaw us out

Count on me to say

Everything that's good is gone

Force a smile



Just count on me to say

Everything that's good is gone

Force a smile somehow

All the plans we've made

They're not breaking

If you're not breaking

This can't hold us down
