Superheaven - Sponge Lyrics

I left my head at home
Buried in the backyard with the dog
I've thought of leaving more times than once
I'm leaving you all alone
I tried so hard to be the rock
But all I felt like was a wet sponge

I want to run
I just can't
The things it takes to be a man

I'm on a road
I'm not proud of the things I have done
Don't let my living bring you down
You'll never know
How much it hurts to nod when I'm the son
I'll never stand and watch you drown

I'm under a spell
This isn't what I want for us
We've held it all together this long
My spine's deep as well
My heart is bigger than you know
This family is just a sad song

I want to run
I just can't
The things it takes to be a man

I'm on a road
I'm not proud of the things I have done
Don't let my living bring you down
You'll never know
How much it hurts to nod when I'm the son
I'll never stand and watch you drown
