Funeral for a Friend - After All These Years Like a Light Bulb Going Off in My Head lyrics

I hate this town, I’ve always hated it
Just too many things I’ve been meaning to say
And not enough reasons for me to stay

And how can we just carry on?
‘Cause when you wake up, I’ll be gone

Building up your coffin burying your dreams
Making up excuses to leave it all behind
It’s killing me your family and friends will
Always wonder "why?"
You hate this town, you’ve always hated it
Still too many things you’ve
Been meaning to say
And not enough reasons for me to stay

And how can we just carry on?
‘Cause when I wake up, you’ll be gone

Building up your coffin burying your dreams
Making up excuses to leave it all behind
It’s killing me your family and friends will
Always wonder "why?"
You hate this town, you’ve always hated it
Still too many things you’ve
Been meaning to say
And not enough reasons for me to stay

Baggage goes around the belt
These lies are killing my esteem
How much I want to laugh at
The ones who carry on
Language barriers are keeping me awake
How do we translate the things that
Make us who we are
When it’s the same things that
Are keeping us apart?
