I'm here to set the record straight
What I am and what I’ve become
Is a mirror image of the things
That I’ve come to know and love

I surround myself with people
Who I try to call my friends
But they’d leave me in an instant
If it came down to us and them

The thing I fear the most, is what I figured all along
I'm a sucker for an empty hand, but I don’t stand it

I will get by without you, if I need to
I will get by without bleeding or needing, this thorn in my side

I stand corrected, my friends that I have left behind
Have lost their faith, in me
I stand corrected, my friends that I have left behind
Have lost their faith, in me

Now the years have passed and I’ve seen them
Turn their heads and walk away
They’ve all left me here with empty pockets and a stray
They all got what they wanted from me but now the well is dry
There’re nothing left, I have nothing

(I have) One day we’ll pick up
(Nothing) Where we left off
(I have) If we
(Nothing) are ready

I will get by without you, if I need to
I will get by without bleeding or needing, this thorn in my side

I did some good with my time
