Yeah      These days are dark and the nights are cold   People acting like they lost their soul   And everywhere I go I see another person like me   Trying to make it all feel like home   These days are dark and the nights are cold   People acting like they lost their soul   And everywhere I go I see another person like me   Trying to make it all feel like home      Standing on the bridge in the dark and I'm seeing my breath   Trying to make it home without freezing to death   And my grandfather's face is stuck in my mind mind and how   Seeing him tonight's gonna be the last time   I should've brought a jacket   Blowing in my hands like it's really gonna stop the chill   I buy a cup of coffee with a five dollar bill   Thinking layin' in that box people look so still      At times like these you start thinkin'   Your first breath in and the clock starts tickin'   I'm not try to bum anyone out   Not tryin' to be dramatic just thinking out loud   I'm just tryin' to make sense in my mind   Some defense from the cold that I'm feeling outside   And for a minute this gig was some rhythm and rhyme   And get away from the gray just a bit at a time      Kinda funny how this world can treat you   Like a freak in a sideshow   A carnival creature climbing outta cans   I'm a diamond in the sand   But you cant tell the difference on a beach full of rhinestones   My life's like trying to swallow a pine cone   It's tough when you live fast just to die slow   Talk to dial tones my dreams are far-fetched   It seems so I sleep underneath this park bench      I know it don't make sense   And I don't expect you to know what it's like   Smoke, drink, piss sniffing everything in my sight   Push rocks in a pipe liftoff I keep puffin 'til my lips turn white   And my chest gets tight but who the fuck really cares   When you're so far left behind that even death looks right   All I can do is hope for the best and pray   That it gets a little better than yesterday      These days are dark and the nights are cold   People acting like they lost their soul   And everywhere I go I see another person like me   Trying to make it all feel like home   These days are dark and the nights are cold   People acting like they lost their soul   And everywhere I go I see another person like me   Trying to make it all feel like home      Pardon me I think I'm nect to url too many problems going on   That's why I left my girl packed my bags and traveled   With a pen and a notepad   Pissed that I was broke and all the things that I don't have   But still I try to find a way to escape   From all the hate planted in my head which lead to mistakes   But now I'm breaking the mold see I was patient and calm   Many sleep in the rain but I'm awake in the storm      Writing my life in a short film the rise and fall   How I managed to scorch hills and climb the walls   Pound pavement aimless in the cold existence   Even thought thangs are changing I'm going the distance   Overcoming the doubt that had controlled for so long   And put it all behind me 'cause life still goes on   Now I'm much stronger and know where I stand   While lost souls search over and over again      These days are dark and the nights are cold   People acting like they lost their soul   And everybody's trying not to cry   Trying to get by and trying not to feel out of control   And if you look hard enough sometimes you'll find a place   That might just remind you of home   But if it doesn't feel like home   You can do what I do just pretend you don't feel so alone      Feel like home   Feel like home   Feel like home   ...
