lyrics

so filled with wine
this world is a wondrous place
filled to the brim
what could be better than this place

im not saving you a spot at the table
to be honest, I'm just trying to save face
im not saving you a spot at the table
im just testing out the limits of this grace

a once solitary man
im learning how to be one with the crowd
what was once a whisper is so loud
you told me once … just once
that i needed a way to blow off steam
now the energy is flowing
and I'm bursting right through the seams
I'm trying to breathe
but your name has shut down the passageways

im not saving you a spot at the table
to be honest, i don't care about saving face
im not saving you a spot at the table
to be honest, im just pushing past the limits of grace

darling,
if you're gone
leave a candle burning for me
darling,
if you're gone
dig a hole for the man i use to be

and i know I've disappointed
time and time again
but i still remember the times you looked right past me to my best friend
and theres a steam train a rollin
rollin around the bend
and theres an old familiar burning
crawling up my spine again
if you see me in the morning
ill be the shell of your former man

honey if you're gone leave a candle burning for me
honey if youre gone
im sorry i wasn't the man you needed me to be
honey if you're gone
