Lyric Throwaway

I remember giving up the gory details
And it left me tongue-tied (such an elementary sickness)
Now I don t want to think and I don t want to feel
I wasn t aware that this was part of the deal
When I put my finger on a greater expectation
But just my luck, I lack the patience of a statesman
And all of my language will fail to convey
That I m terribly twisted around what I say
And the message I threw away

I don t have it now
I don t have it now
I don t have it now
I don t have it now

So I keep hiding and it only grows to hurt me
But time is wasting and I m watching it desert me
I m digging a hole and I m making it deep
And I m starting to question the hours that I keep
And the answer that I put to sleep

I don t have it now
I don t have it now
I don t have it now
I don t have it now

And so I m writing with the hope that someone s reading
For all to likely runs the risk of me repeating
But I don t have the guts to prevent the decay
And I m terribly twisted around what I say
And the courage that I threw away

I don t have it now
I don t have it now
I don t have it now
I don t have it now
