The wind is rough today, I've got my chin tucked into my sweater. I could go for a cigarette. Christmas lights disappear. Making these blistered nights--darker, And I wonder if this is the natural pattern. I wonder if the world will stay cold I wonder if tonight, it will snow I'm caught in short stop images. Caught in a strobe light--fluorescent light. And I'm stuck in a film of black and white. My life is based off percentages. Lights disappear, If darkness is near, why do I feel alone? Must be my imagination, What a terrible thing to say. I wonder if my life will mean the same I wonder if time could relate Letting you in on my world. "I'll stay a while."

She stares through the doorway, Like her eyes are lit, With kerosene, And as my dog turned to leave, It was then I realized, Everyone departs, That's close to me. You see me and I look okay, Can't you see, that's the smile I fake? Why do all the things always feel the same? Do you remember me? As a fond memory, Not something shot down, And burned away? And as my dog turned to leave, It was then I realized, Everyone departs, That's close to me. You see me and I look okay, Can't you see, that's the smile I fake? Why do all the things always feel the same? I like mornings in the shade. When did I ever? Never.

And at your mother's house, Do you remember laying around from sun up to sun down? I'm telling all my friends I'm fine when the truth is, I'm really still shaken, I'm really still shaken. And my life has been a blur, All in which perfect things procured. But I still think of your mother's place. I'm telling my friends, that I'm fine. I'm telling myself that I'm alright. I'm telling my friends that I'm fine. I'm telling myself, that I'm.. And at my own place, I'm stuck getting rug burns on the floor of my room, And in some other place, I'm drifting in a river, Trying to make sense, Of how we're human. And my life has been a blur, All in which perfect things procured. But I still think of your mother's place. I'm telling my friends, that I'm fine. I'm telling myself that I'm alright. I'm telling my friends that I'm fine. I'm telling myself, that I'm.. How far are you from home? Well you're not in my arms, So I guess your a ways away.

Rear View 03:18
What happened to you, we were so close, Now you're in my rear view. I can see all my mistakes from here. And I knew, this was the turning point, For you. Just get the fuck out of here. It all adds up to so much more than what we think we are worth, and I hope, And i hope this is the end, And if i only have this chance, I hope I had enough to say. I'm happy with the way I lived.

Mark my words like you've marked in blood. This is no life to lead, This is no fate, To touch. So think of my better ways, And not of these bitter days When you swept my under your, And I'm, Stuck in this conundrum, I'm locked inside my head, Security throws will break these bones, As though they're made of thread, And I swear to fucking god I'll, Get you out of this old town. And I'll take care you. Oh clarity, sanity, and all of my things. Clear my head so I can think again.

Your Way 03:04
Well I'm not, Taking this well, And It's all because I can't, Trust myself, You break these promises like, They never meant anything to, Either of us. So grab the bottle and play it off, And use it as another excuse. Someday, I hope you can call my name, Someday, I hope we'll be on the same page Another one just, Fell through the roof and I, Don't think that I can take it. Trying harder every time, But not getting any closer, Still hiding from the little things we fear. Someday, I hope you can call my name, Someday, I hope we'll be on the same page Well, I'm glad we did it your way. All along, You knew the reason so don't even play dumb, You always played me as the fool, But I, I did it without you. Someday, I hope you can call my name, Someday, I hope we'll be on the same page.

Drop D Song 04:07
You know me better, But it feels like I know you less, We gave our all, Now let's give it a rest. Cos what can we solve, With a broken heart? What can I do, Going back to the start? It's not the pictures that keep, The moments, it's the moments, That keep you there. I tried, You know I tried, But every time I tried, I still came up slight. I won't live forever, I wanna live my life, With the ones I love.
