Straylight Run A Slow Descent Lyrics

I'm tired...
Cynical and broken, but wiser
Heavy with a sense of resentment
But I used to be so much different, I used to have so much faith

When I started...
You knew that I always meant it
I knew I could make a difference
I struggled to be heard, and then finally, one day people started listening

And I knew it...
But as soon as it began, it was ruined
A slow descent from unique to routine
Over and over, "Just do it again and this time with feelin'."

The spotlight...
All the focus on the friends and the feelin's
That made those stupid songs all worth singin'
And don't you say a word unless you're pretty sure that you want it a___yzed...

So we drove...
For what seemed like days
Over roads...
And four lane highways

We said...
All we had to say
And I realized in time that it
Didn't mean...

And we drove...
For what seemed like days
Over roads...
And four lane highways

We said...
All we had to say
And I realized in time that it
Didn't mean anything....

"It's only a matter of time."
"It's only a matter of time."
"It's only a matter of time."
"It's only a matter of time."

"It's only a matter of time."
"It's only a matter of time."
"It's only a matter of time."
"It's only a matter of time."
