Nothing Good Gets Away

i wish that love was all that i wanted
but we all seem to have our distractions
i already have most things that i could need
but that doesn't mean they will be easy to keep

I'm so lucky to still have my health
i've got so many friends and good contacts
i was thinking of everyone
i was thinking of everyone
but i guess every now and then
i should be thinking more of just you

i don't always stay
24 hours in the same state
i don't mind being in an unfamiliar place
on consecutive days
part of me knows that (i'll do my best to explain)
i can't have it both ways (and that will never change)
"having it all" is such an empty phrase
because nothing can fill every space

i'm not able to always be here
I'm not able to make it easier
i'm not able
