Took a walk down the street to that familiar bar
Sat down on an old wooden stool in the middle...

Let me know, have you ever been down like this?
Been kicked around and battered from here to there...

Smile at your last shot at redemption
You've been tossed around, here to there...

He stands out there in the open
Such an unfamiliar place for the wanderer...

There comes a point in every life
Whenwecan'ttellthingsapart...

Every time he gather himself up
Just one question left to ask...

So it only took him five short years
To find out there's nothing to hope for...

He's been traveling for some time now
Walking down this path and that...

Over the past few days, it's all become clear
Life is so clearly confusing...

Oh mercy fails, just one to deceive
Igniting the embers under our feet...

I roll over to wrap you in my arms
But you've left me this time...

We sat down together
And were asked to describe the other...
