Eddie Vedder

 





You said this time would be the last

You said that it's over

You swore to me you'd put the bottle back down

So many times I've tried to teach you

To keep you from losing another one

Cause she can see right through all the excuses you feed her

And I know that I can't find any kind of definition

Cause you seem so dead to me

Do you still ask yourself "Will they remember me?"

Do you still ask your self "Why do I even try?"

Cause we'd die fighting to keep you alive

You said so softly to me once while waiting for her

You've got so much

You know son

You've got the world on your shoulders

So carry me home

I know it won't change, no it won't change

It won't go away

And I can't bare to watch you do this to yourself another time

You said that it's over

I can't believe you'd ever lie to her

Why?

So many times I've tried to teach you

To keep you from losing her again
