The silence sets in toward the end of the day 
When the ringing in my ears dies away 
Time to slow down 
A chance to reflect 
Let’s share a toast 
An exercise in disrespect 

To each shooting star that broke its promise to me 
To every birthday candle wish guaranteed 
Raise your glass high 
Dress me in black 
In memory of 
The dreams I had 
I’ll drink to that 

I stand by my mistakes 
I did the best that I could do 
Each hour of the day 
Reveals a different point of view 
And when the best years of our lives 
Have burned away like morning dew 
I’ll stand by my mistakes 
I’ll stand by you 

It would be so easy now to curse at my fate 
And point at someone else to shoulder the weight 
No smoking gun 
To bolster my claim 
No chain of command 
I have only myself to blame 

Over many years our paths became intertwined 
To form a knot too tangled up to unwind 
Each move I make 
Tightens it more 
Holds me in place 
Yet somehow makes me feel secure 

Bow your head down 
Dress me in white 
A ghost of the man 
I thought that I’d be by tonight.
