Nebraska lyrics

hey mike i wish i could help you figure something out

but it`s been too long since we spoke

your sarcasm radiates unhappiness

so withdrawn and rooted deep inside

are you content at twenty-seven

were you hopeful at 17?

a void the size of oceans stretches out between us

i guess our blood is suppose to be a bridge

can you pull yourself up from this self hatred

can you pull yourself up

frustrations driven you to angry dreams

let nebraska disappear in golden flames of grain

i know you can`t imagine having company right now

there`s a world of tired faces that understand this pain

there`s a better life waiting on the outside

of these decaying walls

your bitterness doesn`t surprise me

as these pointless days go screaming by

rejected sour eyes can`t imagine blue skies

i wish you could find something to live for

besides the agony of bleeding towards the last breath

i truly believe that you want more than this (this is killing you)

that what you want is very simple

somehow so complex to get

please don`t hate yourself.
