My Time in Exile - Third Eye Blind

Used to worry for each other

No one’s bothered like before

We sleep with each others friends

Sneak around, fall apart, and come back for more

We sit around drinking tables

Stabilized and keeping score

But my mind is somewhere out the door

Oh we have grown

Maybe I’ve overstayed awhile

In my time in exile and

Oh time has flown

And the only thing I’ve learned

I want a life now of my own

We go to clubs

The songs are old

The evening’s blown

We go our ways

And take taxi’s home

Talk of Sunday outings

And medicate to fight the doubting

But know we’ll always be alone

We have grown

I’ve overstayed awhile

In my time in exile and

Oh time has flown

And the only thing I’ve learned

I want a life now of my own

Of my own

That’s my year spent in exile

Second guessed and dressed up in tatters

My both feet didn’t take this path

And I’m still looking for a life that matters

More than chit-chat

We listen to The Streets

We’re all deadbeats

And these old habits are starting to show through

Sorry I didn’t get to know you

Oh time has flown

I’ve overstayed awhile

In my time in exile and

Oh we have grown

The one thing that I’ve learned

I want a life now of my own

Bye bye to the friends I’ve known

In my time in exile
