So Much For Everyone lyrics

As much as I'd like to go

To places I've never known

Scared shitless to leave home

And I don't want to go alone

I miss the rewarding gaze

Of a friend from my younger days

Didn't mind 'bout my selfish ways

As he died I was miles away

I hope he remembers how

As I do when I look back now

Though he'd bark at the slightest sound

Would not bite for he knew not how

And sometimes it's more than clear

When morning comes early here

And I know that the day is near

Wasted days make for wasted years

Now I'm vicious with appetite

Sobering half a mind

Dripping with stolen wine

Awoken by something I dreamt

Harboured by everything

I have been witnessing

Postcards and daydreaming

Get less embarrassing

After the day is done

I will be on the run

So much for everyone

So much for everyone

The showdown is endless here

Under the burning sun

As eyes roll toward me now

I will drop my gun
