about

Previously unreleased early demo. Recorded in Cameron's basement in Boulder, CO on April 21st, 1996.

lyrics

You find yourself out on the streets again
Your life is left in ruins
You can only blame yourself 'cause no
one ever made you do it!

Alone... you've got no place to go
it's alright... you'll make it through the night

now I would take you in, 'cause you're my friend,
but I don't think it would help
you've gone much too far, lied far too hard,
turned your back on every chance!

alone... you've got there on your own
It's not right... you didn't put up a fight

just think, 'cause if you would have tried
you could have climbed up so high
past the stars and the clouds we couldn't reach you
but you chose to sit on your ass (you) can't admit
that it was your own fault!

your life... you let it pass you by
it's your life... do you ever wonder why

you let everything snowball, backed against your own wall
running from your own responsibilities
you could have at least just turned to me
would have helped you see a way out!

you say... things are hard when you're on your own
I know... I was there every step of the way
