Millstone

By Brand New

I used to be such a burning example,

I used to be so original

I used to care, I was being cared for

Made sure I showed it to those that I love

I used to sleep without a single stir,

'Cause I was about my father's work

Well take me out tonight,

This ship of fools I'm on will sink

I'm my own stone around my neck,

If you'd be my breath, 

There's nothing I wouldn't give

I used to pray like God was listening

I used to make my parents proud

I was the glue that kept my friends together,

Now they don't talk and we don't go out

I used to know the name of every person I'd kissed

Now I've made this bed, and I can't fall asleep in it

Well take me out tonight,

This ship of fools I'm on will sink

I'm my own stone around my neck,

If you'd be my breath, 

There's nothing I wouldn't give

Throw me that lifeline,

This ship of fools I'm on will sink

I'm my own stone around my neck

If you'd be my breath, 

There's nothing I wouldn't give

"They never hit their brakes..."

"There was no time to see..."

"He just ran out in the street..."

"Does anybody know his name?"

"I think I recognize him..."

"He sure as hell paid for that mistake..."

So take me out tonight

This ship of fools I'm on will sink

I'm my own stone around my neck

If you'd be my breath, 

There's nothing I wouldn't give

Well save my life tonight

This ship of fools I'm on will sink

I'm my own stone around my neck

If you'd be my breath, 

There's nothing I wouldn't give
