In May he turned 21 on the base at Fort Bliss
Like they have any right at all to criticize
So cradle your head in your hands
But, my God, it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
Oh breathe, just breathe
No one can find the rewind button, boys
Hypocrites, you're all here for the very same reason
'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
Inside of me threatening the life it belongs to
So cradle your head in your hands
If I get it all down on paper, it's no longer
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
"Just a Day," he said down to the flask in his fist
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
And ‘cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
Whoa breathe, just breathe
And breathe, just breathe
Oh breathe, just breathe
But you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
No one can find the rewind button, girl
Here in town you can tell he's been down for awhile
There's a light at each end of this tunnel
2 AM and I'm still awake, writing a song
No one can find the rewind button now
'Cause these words are my diary, screaming out loud
I don't love him, winter just wasn't my season"
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
And I know that you'll use them however you want to
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
Wanna hold him, maybe I'll just sing about it
Yeah we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes
You shout 'cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
If you only try turning around
Oh breathe, just breathe
And breathe, just breathe
And breathe, just breathe
"Ain't been sober, since maybe October of last year"
Sing it if you understand
And these mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
