Second Base - Before I Reach The End Lyrics

I'll tear down the pictures and burn the poems
and all the love I ever had for you
in a desperate attempt to erase you from my mind
and I'll pass out after countless sleepless nights
filled with alcohol, bitter tears and lies
but I'll awake to be renewed.

So I'm sorry if I hurt your knife while you stabbed me in the back.
Was it something that I did? Was it something that I said?

Word is on the streets,
your crusade has been well received by me,
but I assure you'll need more to bring me down cause after all,
your ivory tower has been breached.
It came down, almost crashing into me.

So for now, let me sleep - when morning comes,
I will embrace the light I see - if it's there
If it's not, let me spare my pride for just one more day
And leave me alone
Ignore what I'll say... And what I'll sing.
We will see, I will wait
For better days to come my way
