When I'm all by myself The silence seems so absurd Dripping words from my mouth It never feels like I've heard And I feel like I'm done I'm tired is all I can say When it wears down my health it's time to take this away 'Cause when it breaks down it's like its written in stone And it when it fades out I feel the pain in my bones It's like its written in stone When the sun's heading south And all the cows come to herd Will the flames get snuffed out By the screams of the birds And I feel like I tried to quiet all my dismay But it tore me apart The violence out on display 'Cause when it breaks down it's like it's written in stone And when it fades out I feel the pain in my bones 'Cause when it breaks down it's like it's written in stone And when it fades out I feel the pain in my bones It's like it's written in stone Like it's written in stone Like it's written in stone Like it's written in stone
