It's been so long since I've been by myself
  And I need this more than you will ever know
  People like you and me never felt the breeze
  People like you and me will never know the easy way
    I scream into the wind and laugh
  As the words slap me in hte face
  I would gladly trade a lifetime of convenience
  For and honest day or two
    It's just not the same when you're staring
  Into a perfect golden sunset
  And thinking about how you sold your soul
  To send the rain away
    It's been so long since I've stood on my two feet
  I'd really rather lay here and pretend
  But people like you and me never get that peace
  It comes from denying that everything is so screwed up
  It's so screwed up
    I stand on a building and throw up my arms to the sky
  I swallow my pride and admit
  That it's not always best to understand the reason why
    It's just not the same when you wake up in the morning
  With a smile on your face
  When you know you lied yourself to sleep to make it better
  To make it better
