Starting Line – Almost There, Going Nowhere lyrics

it's time to say a word
"say it like you mean it"
he spoke with a tone of hurt
as my eyes rolled back
hoping for the end
one too many condescending battles for a friend
say another word
and i'll sit on the floor
keep talking down to me
your not only losing me
your losing whats in store

i'll try to stay awake
when i go
when i get home
i'll try to stay away
over the phone
so i can tell the truth
tell the truth

something keeps on getting in the way
between you and I on summer holiday yeah
just wait one minute more
cause my heart is halfway torn and your already gone
and your already gone

i'll try to stay awake (so i can tell you)
when i go
when i get home
i'll try to stay away (so i can tell you)
over the phone
so i can tell the truth

say another word
face first on the floor
keep talking down to me
losing what was almost meant to be

i'll try to stay awake (so i can tell you)
when i go
when i get home
i'll try to stay away (so i can tell you)
over the phone
so i can tell the truth
