Running On Empty – Basketball's Out Of Season lyrics

Today feels like the 32nd of this month
It should be a new beginning, but it's stuck
I never liked July but it's getting worse every day
It's too hot and basketball's out of season anyway

Right now feels like it's 13:00
I'm sitting here atop my favorite rock
Watching the cars drive up and down the street
Acting like there's still a point to anything

It's so hard to get through your moods
I think my words are slipping through you
And I don't know if you notice but I'm standing here
Well, at least you can't get embarrased if no one realizes you're there
How long do you expect me to bear
This feeling of absolute emptiness
And I don't know if you notice but I'm standing here, alone

I think maybe I'll just try to go to bed
Gather some soft pillows for my hard head
I'll even try my hand at trying to go to sleep
But I'm sure I won't be able to so I'll lie away and think

It's so hard to get through your moods
I think my words are slipping through you
And I don't know if you notice but I'm standing here
Well, at least that person in the mirror pretends to care
How long do you expect me to bear
This feeling of absolute emptiness
And I don't know if you notice but I'm standing here, alone

(And if I go to sleep
I fear I won't wake up
But then again I guess that's nothing to be scared of)x2
Well, I'm not scared, no I'm not scared
Just tired of trying to get to you

It's so hard to get through your moods
I think my words are slipping through you
And I don't know if you notice but I'm standing here
Well, at least that person in the mirror pretends to care
How long do you expect me to bear
This feeling of absolute emptiness
And I don't know if you notice but I'm standing here, alone
