Lyrics Count the Rings - The Accidentals

I′m packing the car and then I'm leaving
I′m giving myself some time for grieving
Gonna take a drive to Tennessee to heal the broken parts of me
Gonna try to find out what I want and what I need

Shadows tend to grow
When I'm all alone
Every ringing phone
I let it hang like smoke
Truth is like a little pill
Deep down I know
It's hard to swallow
Sometimes I′d rather choke
If what I want is always out of reach
It′s cause I let it waste away in me
Cut me down and count the rings

I haven't forgotten what′s behind me
A mountain of things that need forgiving
But every time I try to turn around
I know I'm letting myself down
So I′m following the signs that guide me to the next town

Shadows tend to grow
When I'm all alone
Every ringing phone
I let it hang like smoke
Truth is like a little pill
Deep down I know
It′s hard to swallow
Sometimes I'd rather choke
If what I want is always out of reach
It's cause I let it waste away in me
Cut me down and count the rings

I′m tired of waiting for a reason (chance to be)
I′m ready for something to believe in (a different dream)
Cause even in my sleep I feel the change coming
No, I can't erase it
Yeah, I′m gonna chase it

Shadows tend to grow
When I'm all alone
Every ringing phone
I let it hang like smoke
Truth is like a little pill
Deep down I know
It′s hard to swallow
Sometimes I'd rather choke
If what I want is always out of reach
It′s cause I let it waste away in me
Cut me down and count the rings
Cut me down and count the rings
Cut me down and count the rings
