The ring like a stain in the wood A drink from years ago I'm sure A black and white on the wall from years ago when we were good Somewhere This house is a pain station Awaiting blueprints for relief The party's finally over And everyone else had to leave It binds you, reminds me Pick up the grocery for your head Take this invitation Please don't waste another day Hold my hands above my head This ride is misery Between the bars you're clinging to a world of cold embrace I'm still here to remind you The world hasn't changed You're still alone "No more pretending for him" A hopeless voice cracks on the phone It's deafening, reminds me pick up the passport for your trip Take this one It's leaving It's the last bound for repair I'll be here relieving all your loves and all your cares If there were words to give you hope If you would treasure all you have They'd believe in you my friend So long, so long
