But, my God, it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
There's a light at each end of this tunnel
Whoa breathe, just breathe
If you only try turning around
Oh breathe, just breathe
I don't love him, winter just wasn't my season"
"Ain't been sober, since maybe October of last year"
And ‘cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
Hypocrites, you're all here for the very same reason
2 AM and she calls me 'cause I'm still awake
And breathe, just breathe
So cradle your head in your hands
No one can find the rewind button, boys
2 AM and I'm still awake, writing a song
Songwriter: Anna C Nalick
"Can you help me unravel my latest mistake?
'Cause these words are my diary, screaming out loud
"Just a Day," he said down to the flask in his fist
Oh breathe, just breathe
Oh breathe, just breathe
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
So cradle your head in your hands
Here in town you can tell he's been down for awhile
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
And I know that you'll use them however you want to
Like they have any right at all to criticize
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
If I get it all down on paper, it's no longer
And breathe, just breathe
Oh breathe, just breathe
No one can find the rewind button, girl
And breathe, just breathe
Wanna hold him, maybe I'll just sing about it
Sing it if you understand
Yeah we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes

No one can find the rewind button now
In May he turned 21 on the base at Fort Bliss
Inside of me threatening the life it belongs to
But you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
And these mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
You shout 'cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
