Rosemount

They say it never gets this cold in California,
But I've still got miles left to go before I sleep

They say it never gets this cold in California
So why am I the one who's lost the only feeling I could find
The 71 is looking more and more like a graveyard everyday
And I'm six feet closer to the man that I never thought I'd be

It scares the shit out of me, how I feel so empty

But it's ok, when you see the best of me I'll be ready with the words that you need.
And that's ok, until then waste away behind your desk and pay
It's all that you'll have left anyway

I swore that I won't be the one who dies filled with regret
And this was supposed to be the part where you remember that
We used to share a common ground, and I'll keep that memory safe and sound.

But it's ok, when you see the best of me I'll be ready with the words that you need.
And that's ok, until then waste away behind your desk and pay
It's all that you'll have left anyway

I lost track of who you are a long time ago.
You're just a frame of your former self
And the cracks that you left behind are expanding.
Do you know if you're even there, or if you ever even cared at all
This is the part where you try to save face, but you know that it's to fucking late

You never knew that this would end, buried by your former friend
I can't stand, no I can't stand to see things go this way.
You're not the guy I knew back then, Jesus won't this ever end.
I just think that we'll be better off on separate ways
