The Birdwatchers - Set in Stone Lyrics

Yes I know it's no excuse.
But it's not what's left to gain, it's to risk what's left to lose
And all my friends say "have some fun
Come outside, we're on Wheaton, let's party while we're young!"

My future lies at the bottom of a bottle or a bay
I can't believe that just last week can feel so far away
They'll tell me "life's not set in stone"
But my problem is this state of mind that's all I've ever known

And it's finally clear to me
Clearer than the hole inside my chest where my heart should be
Just like the hole that's in my head
Yeah well I know such is life, just go to work, just go to bed

My future lies at the bottom of a bottle or a bay
I can't believe that just last week can feel so far away
They'll tell me "life's not set in stone"
But my problem is this state of mind that's all I'll ever know
