How I Go Lyrics - Lights And Sounds - Yellowcard

I could tell you the wildest of tales 

My friend the giant and traveling sales 

Tell you all the times that I failed 

The years all behind me 

The stories excelled. 

And I'm drying out 

Crying out 

This isn't how I go 

I could tell you of a man not so tall 

Who said life's a circus and so we are small 

Tell you of a girl that I saw 

I froze in the moment and she changed it all 

And I'm drying out 

Crying out 

This isn't how I go 

Hurry now 

Lay me down 

And let these waters flow 

Flow 

Son I am not everything you thought that I would be 

But every story I have told is part of me 

And you keep the air in my lungs 

Floating along as a melody comes 

And my heart beats like timpani drums 

Keeping the time while a symphony strums 

And I'm drying out 

Crying out 

This isn't how I go 

Hurry now 

Lay me down 

And let these waters flowâ?¦ 

Flow 

Let it flow 

Let it flow 

Son I am not everything you thought that I would be 

But every story I have told is part of me 

Son I leave you now but you have so much more to do 

And every story I have told is part of you
