Lyrics

Your Distant Observer

Another day has ended
But you're back to where it started
Your same old wounds not mended
They just keep busting them back open

You thought this would be different
But, no, you thought wrong
You've learned that assumptions
Are far from the hard cold truth

I'm your distant observer
Watching you ride
Your life's bumpy rollercoaster
Full of sorrow, hate, and lies

Another disappointment
They've let you down again
A cancelled appointment
Again it's happened all the same

There you go confused
In your spiral descent
That familiar position abused
Letting forgotten memories surface

But I'm your distant observer
Watching you ride
Your life's bumpy rollercoaster
Full of sorrow, hate, and lies

Why do you let them
Hurt you like this?
Over backwards you bend
But your efforts go in vain

You don't deserve this
They don't deserve you
Good things you've missed
All because of them

I'm your distant observer
Watching you ride
Your life's bumpy rollercoaster
Full of sorrow, hate, and lies

So it's the same old story
Just the same old lies
All the meaningless sorries
And negligent friends

I'd like to tell you it gets better
That every night turns to dawn
But does it really ever?
We've all been on that ride

I'm your wannabe super hero
Wishing to make everything alright
Time flies and before you know
I'll be coming to save your day
