Life.Of.Sin

My sister ran away from home today.  I found her within three minutes, but it was still weird.  I didn’t ask my mom about the conversation they had after I picked her up, but it seems different than when I run away from home.

She copies the things I did when I was depressed because … well, I don’t know.  I know she got herself sent to the mental institution because she thought it would be fun.  She told me so.

This time I think she was just being bratty and wanted attention.  Apparently my mom didn’t tell her that she could have the computer and didn’t get her candy at the store and wouldn’t take her to Subway.

Being depressed isn’t a game.

Sometimes she’s such a stupid little bitch.

2 AM and she calls me 'cause I'm still awake
Can you help me unravel my latest mistake
I don't love him, winter just wasn't my season
Yeah we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes
Like they have any right at all too criticize
Hypocrites, you're all here for the very same reason
-------------------

'Cause you can't jump the track
We're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button girl
So cradle your head in your hands
And breathe, just breathe
Woah breathe, just breathe

May he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss
Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist
Ain't been sober since maybe October of last year
Here in town you can tell he's be down for awhile
But my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
Wanna hold him, maybe I'll just sing about it
-------------------------------

'Cause you can't jump the track
We're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button, boys
So cradle your head in your hands
And breathe, just breathe
Woah breathe, just breathe
---------------------

There's a light at the end of this tunnel, you shout
'Cause your just as far in as you'll ever be out
And these mistakes you make, you'll just make them againIf you only try turning around
----------------

2 AM and I'm still awake writing a song
If I get all down on paper
It's not longer inside of me
Threatening the life it belongs to
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
'Cause these words on my diary, screaming out loud
And I know that you'll use them however you want to
-------------

'Cause you can't jump the track
We're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass
Glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button now
Sing it if you understandWoah breathe, just breathe
Oh breathe, just breathe
