My Time in Exile

Used to worry for each other
No one’s bothered like before
We sleep with each others friends
Sneak around, fall apart, and come back for more
We sit around drinking tables
Stabilized and keeping score
But my mind is somewhere out the door
Oh we have grown
Maybe I’ve overstayed awhile
In my time in exile and
Oh time has flown
And the only thing I’ve learned
I want a life now of my own
We go to clubs
The songs are old
The evening’s blown
We go our ways
And take taxi’s home
Talk of Sunday outings
And medicate to fight the doubting
But know we’ll always be alone
We have grown
I’ve overstayed awhile
In my time in exile and
Oh time has flown
And the only thing I’ve learned
I want a life now of my own
Of my own
That’s my year spent in exile
Second guessed and dressed up in tatters
My both feet didn’t take this path
And I’m still looking for a life that matters
More than chit-chat
We listen to The Streets
We’re all deadbeats
And these old habits are starting to show through
Sorry I didn’t get to know you
Oh time has flown
I’ve overstayed awhile
In my time in exile and
Oh we have grown
The one thing that I’ve learned
I want a life now of my own
Bye bye to the friends I’ve known
In my time in exile
