Too Close to See

A cup of two day old coffee
 You're feeling like yourself again
 You're still on your own, you've survived another night
 In this dingy room with the same four walls
 ♪
 Looking in the mirrors getting easier these days
 That old friend anger is losing its hold on you
 The key to survival in this crazy world
 And it's good to see you're still standing strong
 Not too long ago you were tearing at a world
 That would never let you in
 Strung out, outcast turned away
 You kept your face to the ground
 And fought the world with your silence
 ♪
 And so the seasons change
 And the people change
 And the good times come
 And the good times go
 Found yourself in a winless race
 Fighting for a cause you never believed
 ♪
 Its easy to regret not so easy to forget
 All the stupid things that used to hold you down
 You gotta brake that chain and move on
 'Cause I know I've seen it in your eyes before
 ♪
 To surrender now to throw it all away
 Is a sacrifice that you can't repay
 In a world that don't owe you shit
 You gotta think for yourself
 And fight every bit of that piece of mind
 That keeps you going on
 Gets you outta bed and out that door
 Get back take a look around and soon
 You'll find there's something more
 That'll come your way
 With a little patience
 It will all work out for you in the end
 This is my song to a friend that never needed anyone until now
 Some times you get too close to see
 A different side of what life could be
 And if you stare too long
 It all becomes a blur and its easy to forget just who we are
 Don't stare to hard, just take a look around ...
