Bedford Falls

[Verse 1] The cracks in the street outside this house Are not the only thing that misery surrounds I know you hate yourself It’s the only common ground that we can depend on And it kills me to see your face because you never deserved this And while I’m dying at this desk, you’re dying in your head The life you always dreamt; I’m living it instead [Chorus] All the things I thought I earned were never mine all along You emptied every pocket to bail me out of Bedford Falls And I owe you everything (My life included) For sacrificing happiness (While I stay secluded) [Verse 2] I sailed away from you On a vessel that I made from all the things you gave to me It’s keeping me afloat, but I still worry Because I’m treading in this sea of doubt in my self consciousness And all you want is for me to be happy [Chorus] All the things I thought I earned were never mine all along You emptied every pocket to bail me out of bedford falls And I owe you everything. My life included For sacrificing happiness while I stay secluded Fucked and complacent Condemned to my basement Get lost in these tracks while you’re lost on that bridge where you stand There’s nothing but guilt left inside You go home and sit alone every night It never seemed fair to me I’d be nothing without you I’d break through the ice and i’d drown in my self-centered abyss And i’d never have a home without cutting down your branches
