Briefest Moment
I was a small-town kid with no possessions
And I was bored beyond belief
I couldn't wait to get away from nowhere
I made a plan to finally leave
So I packed my bags and ran away
I needed something more
To take away this pain
I found the medicine tucked in your locker
I picked the lock and grabbed the pills
I found a friend and then we went
And then we went, and then we went
We swallowed all of them up on the trestle
I heard a melody so pure
I felt an echo that was so familiar
I left my misery behind
If only for the briefest moment of time
You lost your balance as I tried to grab you
And then you slipped right through my hands
I don't remember how I made it out alive
But there you went and here I am
I keep the guilt out on display
It's my memorial to mark that day
If I could fall for you but I cannot undo
The briefest moment of time
And I was bored beyond belief
I couldn't wait to get away from nowhere
I made a plan to finally leave
So I packed my bags and ran away
I needed something more
To take away this pain
I found the medicine tucked in your locker
I picked the lock and grabbed the pills
I found a friend and then we went
And then we went, and then we went
We swallowed all of them up on the trestle
I heard a melody so pure
I felt an echo that was so familiar
I left my misery behind
If only for the briefest moment of time
You lost your balance as I tried to grab you
And then you slipped right through my hands
I don't remember how I made it out alive
But there you went and here I am
I keep the guilt out on display
It's my memorial to mark that day
If I could fall for you but I cannot undo
The briefest moment of time
