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