Loved Ones (Excerpts From Speeches of How Great You Were, and Will Never Be Again) Songtext
von Poison the Well

Sit across from you, why are we even here?
There is no way to make up for the 20 years
I love trying to make conversation
When I could care less of what you′re doing
What are you doing?
And I know you never cared 'till now
Cared ′till now

All my days go back to when you would scream
And it froze me
And it froze me

Guess the screaming runs in the family
You look tired and run-down
Are you even excited to see your baby boy?
Put a razor to the skin
Until we don't resemble each other anymore


Sit across from you, why are we even here?
There is no way to make up for the 20 years
So now I see the tears welling up, finally you care
I've waited, I′ve waited, I′ve waited for this

It's always been over
It′s always been over
It's always been over for us
A single tear, a last resort
For all who′ve never felt

You look tired and run-down
Are you even excited to see your baby boy?
Put a razor to the skin
Until we don't resemble each other anymore

Sit across from you, why are we even here?
There is no way to make up for these 20 years

If I could flip this table
I′d stab you, I'd stab you
With every word that lied its way out of your head
