i ve been hiding out the four white walls of my basement keep me safe from sounds that remind me of the times that aren t coming back i better write this down before it gets lost in my memory that s so clouded now with the thoughts of all the things i used to be i m sure you ve heard it all admit that you were wrong i m sure you ve heard it all well i tried to save your soul but i lost it on the road somewhere between your home and the west coast so nice to know you it s been nice to know you i ve been finding out there isn t much to see once i m underground there s nothing in this world that could bring me back we had the highest hopes watched them all go up in smoke and float away like ghosts of all the people i ll never know there s nothing in this world that could bring me back
