Lyrics
Even Now by Shannon Conley & Dean Holtermann
Can't tell you what a trip it's been,
maybe one day i will try.
Can't sell you on what's inside my head
if you're not in the market, or maybe i'm too high...
EVEN NOW - the grass is always greener,
greener on the other side somehow
EVEN NOW - i don't belong to either,
so i walk the fence and pray i don't fall down
Dust in the curtains, ashes in the rug,
three years of suffering are soaking in this tub
I traded in the rumblings for a breeze that's crisp and sweet,
just another set of noises to keep me from my sleep
EVEN NOW - i know i need the silence
but there's a part of me that always loves it loud
EVEN NOW - i'm blaming while you're gloating
but we're hanging in there for the final round...
WHAT IF I FALL?
WHAT IF I FALL & I CAN'T GET UP?
WHAT IF I'M WRONG?(THEN I'M WRONG!)
WHAT IF I'M WRONG & I LOSE MYSELF
When will i learn, when will i learn,
when will i learn how to be here
when will i learn, when will i learn,
when will i learn how to be here
EVEN NOW -with all the distance that's between us.
still you preoccupy my thoughts
EVEN NOW - i'm falling where i'm floating
like an old boat whose sails have been tossed
EVEN NOW- i don't wanna be the keeper
but i just can't bring the words up to my mouth
EVEN NOW - when all the guards have gone to sleep here,
and i can't seem to find my way out...
when will i learn how to be here?
