about

Full-band version re-recorded for the Deluxe release.

lyrics

For the sake of your ego
I can make an exception just this once.
But know that this is testing my patience
and frankly I've had quite enough
of this childish fighting and malicious intent.
It's getting quite hard to defend.
When family and friends are far beyond words
it's hard to share common sense.

It's on your shoulders now.
Don't you dare bring me into this.
Think this thing out.
It this really worth it?
Take your time and speak very carefully.

These words will hang here forever (between us)
if they're not put to rest right now. (I've said too much.)
But we'll be alright. (But will we be alright?)
We'll be alright.

It's been a long day. Every minute I'd longed for your voice.
And though we spoke only once and it wasn't long
you managed to still disappoint.
Because I had expected much better from you.
You insist on letting me down.
But please don't hold this against me.
I just need a friend right now.

It's on your shoulders now.
Don't you dare bring me into this.
Think this thing out.
It this really worth it?
Take your time and speak very carefully.

These words will hang here forever (between us)
if they're not put to rest right now. (I've said too much.)
But we'll be alright. (But will we be alright?)
We'll be alright.

Though the words you spoke were ungrateful,
their target was met quite alright.
It was worth it to know we knew better.
Than to keep this contempt left inside.
I don't care if you believe me
but your apology was not wasted breath.
Don't assume it'd fallen on deaf ears.
After all, they heard every last word that you'd said.

But on your shoulders now.
You don't really need me.
You talked this thing out.
The solutions were easy.
Take your time and speak very carefully.

These words will hang here forever
if they're not put to rest right now.
But we'll be alright.
We'll be alright.
