lyrics

Feels oddly out of place
Can't keep to myself I always run my mouth
Eyes stared blankly while
Words they kept falling out
No discretion but the crowd surrounding

Heard that there's a show tonight
Got myself into a fight
Tried to explain to them it's alright
I'm not from around this town

And leaves...
Do they feel themselves fall
Or is it indistinct like memory
Can't quell the thought it's just
I've got no hand to hold by now

Crowds can watch and they see what they believe
The mind tells them I'm fine but I'm dying
Too busy leaving my thoughts on my grave
Never made time to seize the day

I heard them tell me to bite the curb
Felt my eyes water, probably just blood
Taste of salt in my mouth
No long hungering for my oath/own

And leaves...
Do they feel themselves fall
Or is it indistinct like memory
Can't quell the thought it's just
I've got my teeth I'm choking on see
