How did I get here?
And why the hell did it take so long?
I've buried a best friend,
Inside my trash can you left outdoors.
And you dropped me in the mailbox,
My face paint still left on.
And you accused I never loved you,
I could say nothing to change your mind.
Charlie, Charlie, Charlie,
My smile has become empty,
Heard you've been looking for me,
Come on kid you know where I would go.
See lately, lately, lastly,
I would love for you to ask me,
Where the line between my pen and mind's at war,
I tell MOST the truth you know.
My voice is a hatchet,
It's forgotten how to whisper soft.
My mind is a bucket,
And it captures the rain,
Sinking through the ceiling,
Landing on the rooftops.
You told me you were filled up
With love,
I said you've lost it.
And you've said a mess of errors,
But you know not what it costs yet.
But I know, I know, I know,
Charlie, Charlie, Charlie,
My smile has become lazy,
Heard you've been looking for me,
Come on kid you know where I would go.
See lately, lately, lastly,
I would love for you to ask me,
Where the line between my pen and mind's at war,
I tell MOST the truth you know.
They say I've lost all,
I've watched them,
Burn all the pictures of good pain on the beaches,
And oh,
If this is rock bottom,
Then I say,
'God damn, the view from here is so breathtaking'.
Oh, oh, oh.
Charlie, Charlie, Charlie,
My smile has become lazy,
Heard you've been looking for me,
Come on kid you know where I would go.
(Go ohhh)
See lately, lately, lastly,
I would love for you to ask me,
Where the line between my pen and mind's at war,
I tell MOST the truth you know, ohh, oh.
