You Became My Big Excuse

Lyrics for You Became My Big Excuse

One time you couldn't dream, couldn't see past this life Something like defeat floated in the evening light If you land in darkness, no one will keep up... You kept your place, I moved through a world of strangers Where's your tenderness? Everything gets rearranged If it's all revealed as treachery and deals Where's your grace? You became my big excuse The poison that I drink when I sink my teeth in you You became my big excuse People that were friends, something comes along—it changes Fog just doesn't lift, old hotels and railway stations Where's the good in that? You just rush away and pack You became my big excuse The poison that I drink when I sink my teeth in you You became my big excuse You don't get my name, all you get's my reputation Always been the same, played it close or isolated But just around the bend, something's gotta end I keep too much in, know I'm not much company If you land in darkness, no one can keep up Nobody could You became my big excuse The poison that I drink when I sink my teeth in you You became my big excuse Could be a long, long, long time Getting over this Could be a long, long, long time Getting over...
