Tried to save myself
But myself keeps slipping away
Tried to save myself
But myself keeps slipping away
Tried to save myself
But myself keeps slipping away
Tried to save myself
But myself keeps slipping away

Talking to myself all the way to the station
Pictures in my head of the final destination all lined up
All lined up, all the one's that aren't allowed to stay
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away

Tried to save a place from the cuts and the scratches
Tried to overcome the complications and the catches
Nothing ever grows and the sun doesn't shine all day
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away

Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away

(Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away)
(Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away)
(Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away)

Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away

Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away
Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away

Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping

    i like what closer said, and here i am offering a second interpretation to it as well.

    Tried to save myself but myself keeps slipping away --- basically i think this song is about regret...here trent is slipping away b/c he is regretting sooo many things in his life and is leading into deterioration

    Talking to myself all the way to the station --- he is regretting what he has done by talking to himself

    Pictures in my head of the final destination --- now he is wondering what will happen to him because of what he has done.

    i personally think closer is right, this is just what i saw and im just throwing it out there for any comments
