Intro 00:04
2.
And I'm staring out from behind this glass wall, it looks all too clear yet still I'm not outside. Isn't this always the case when you're pulling on the ripcord, and still seem to fall faster to the ground? And I look up, see myself waving bye. Losing someone, I think it's me. Well I guess I won't know 'till I'm gone. Would it be so bad if I fell straight to the ground, and what's inside me was scattered all around? Mixture of blood dirt and me, will I realize then it's too late? Or never see? And so the story goes...
3.
It's happening once again, you don't have to make this harder than it already seems to be. Why can't my heart just let you go and stick with me? Every time I'm with you it just seems like we're in our own world, but then I realize that something this perfect could not be mine. Losing myself in your grey eyes. Painting a portrait in my mind with every smile. Why can't I just find an easy way to make this stray from me? Because it's just so hard to hold someone and know that they cannot be yours. So now I sit staring at the empty wall where our picture should hang, but still remains a void just like the one in me that you should fill. Every time I'm with you it just seems like we're in our own world, but then I realize that something this perfect could not be mine.
4.
The green light exposes my face to the darkness in this room. Eleven o'clock on the dial, backed into the corner cringing. Why it always seems like I'm reaching up just to touch the bottom? You muffle my screams with bitter neglect, but I will not be silenced. So far away, away from those days when I used to play, the glowing in my eyes had not yet died. What's happened now? I still haven't found the child I once was, but I won't be the one to fall. And now it's so clear, just what the purpose of you in my life is. To bleed my eyes dry, to take what is mine, but I will not be silenced.
5.
As the last leaf falls, I find that nothing that you've told me can or ever will be true. Is this the final draw? The one that will put the arrow through this heart of mine. Leave me out to dry, just like the others who once were close to you. When will this all end? It's not to late. So I'll see you on the other side. Once you figure out just where I stand in your life. I think back to when nothing could sever the bond held between us. The tie that binds is now unbound and the boundary far too great to overcome. So we will end this season bare and depleted, just like what we have now. When will this all end? It's not too late. So I'll see you on the other side. Once you figure out just where I stand in your life. What we had so large, no seems so small. Now I cut you loose, the ground awaits you as the last leaf falls.

about

Originally calling themselves Troy's Bucket, Same Way Again discovered there was already a band with that name and went on the hunt for a new identity. After a few lineup changes SWA released their first EP, Almost Famous. Grasping their pop punk roots, this album is great for any fans of Saves the Day, Ataris, and the like. Thanks to Alan at the record store, Sounds Like Music in Riverside, Ca, the album had great local success as it was featured in their sound booth for fans to preview before they buy.
