lyrics

i would say the day is done
it would be nice to meet you
if just to say i'm sorry
for what they'll put you through

and i don't need to bring it up
but in a way you made it
harder on yourself
when everything that you do
doesn't even come through
and they're laughing at you
to your face

quiet is the next best thing
you'r gonna need to listen
to what he says in the morning
a victim of clonipin

i'm not sayin' this is what you need
but in a way you make it
harder on everyone
when you can't see what you do
and it's not about you
and it's not about me
you've got your sights on winning
some big race

(you're not winning a race
youre not running
you're late again

razorblades
razorblades
you're leaving behind
razorblades
you're leaving behind

you're not running the right rate
you're not running
you're lame

razorblades
razorblades
you're bleeding your mind
razorblades
razorblades
you're letting your mind elate

you're gonna need a pair of jeans
before you hit the airport
to get back on the road
you can't wait around for long

thought this wasn't in the rule book
don't need to be indifferent
or harder on yourself
or harder on anyone
it's in the past what's been done
you're moving out beyond
golden gate
