Yellowcard - How I Go

I could tell you
the wildest of tales
My friend the giant
and traveling sales
Tell you all the times
that I failed
The years all behind me
The stories excelled
And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go
I could tell you of
a man not so tall
Who said life's a circus and
so we are small
Tell you of a girl that I saw
I froze in the moment and
she changed it all
And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go
Hurry now
Lay me down
And let these waters flow oh
Flow oh
Son I am not everything
you thought that I would be
But every story
I have told is part of me

And you keep the air
in my lungs
Floating along as
a melody comes
And my heart beats
like timpani drums
Keeping the time while
a symphony strums
And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go
Hurry now
Lay me down
And let these waters flow oh
Flow oh
Let it flow Let it flow
Let it flow Let it flow

Son I am not everything you
thought that I would be
But every story
I have told is part of me
Son I leave you now but you
have so much more to do
and every story
I have told is part of you

I could tell you
the wildest of tales
My friend the giant
and traveling sales
Tell you all the times
that I failed
The years all behind me
The stories excelled
And I'm drying out
Crying out
