It's all about the things bouncing in your head
Til you pulled your tongue and it breaks like thread
Unraveling at the ends while it's all thats left in your hands
I looked the other way this time
Yet I'm still the one left behind
This chase is getting old, or so I was told
But what do I know? It's all that I hold
Caught you creeping through the backdoor
Still wishing things were different, when you can change this easily,
But I guess I wasn't worth it
Nevermind, it's not important
It's about time we got started

This choice wasn't ideal, but it was made
You can only look to the past til we separate
So shed your tears til your eyes go dry
Sorry I couldn't stay in your life
It's not a matter of what, but no action to take
You slowed things down, but this feeling I couldn't shake
I'll end up alone in this bed
Til I'm tearing these thoughts out of my head
You were happy before and you can find it again
I didn't do much then and we've seen how this ends
So I'll push you away from me even though I want you to stay
There's cracks on the ceiling and dust on the furniture
The clock hands are too rusted to turn (to rusted to turn)
The weight of my heavy heart (my heavy heart)
Crushes the lungs in my ribcage (ribcage)
They buckle under the pressure you put on my chest (on my chest)
Though I'll wish you the best
I hope that one day you'll feel this way too
The hopes of a happy ever after
Blown away with the wind
Like a sapling caught within your storm
I just break and bend
Today is looking up for the first time in a long time
And I'm not tearing myself apart anymore
Can't hear you today, you've left my brain
Just gonna move on and that's okay
Can't lie this still hurts sometimes
Had to get used to what's on the inside
Even though I did nothing wrong, I still bear the weight of all of it
(today is looking up for the first time in a long time)
Broken for so long, wasn't so strong, can't feel my feet I was in too fucking deep
(and I'm not tearing myself apart anymore)

Pull me away
Make me believe that you wanna stay
Lost in thought of hearing your case
But your torn to bits so go on and throw this aside
A constant reminder there's no point and you lied
I could stay and talk some more
But I think that you've heard this one before
It's been told time and time again (told time and time again)
I should learn to speak up
Yet I keep my mouth shut
Now and again this feeling fades
All this guilt but I still stay
I'm about to lose it
Might wanna do something stupid
While you just fake it
Hoping one day you'll finally make it
Out of this hell
I hope it goes well
I guess we'll find out
Tell me again how we got here
Down on our luck, stop giving a fuck
About anyone or anything
Just to watch ourselves bleed
On the floor seeping through the cracks
and I don't want to think about that
I'm sad that it came to this
Gun in a clenched fist
I hope this doesn't tear you up inside
These were my problems to hide
Pull me away
Make me believe that you wanna stay
Lost in thought of hearing your case
But your torn to bits so go on and throw this aside
A constant reminder there's no point and you lied
Tell me again how we got here
Down on our luck, stop giving a fuck
About anyone or anything
Just to watch ourselves bleed
On the floor seeping through the cracks
and I don't want to think about that (think about that)
I don't want to think about that
I just need some sleep
Call me when you won't speak
As if I'm the problem to all your shortcomings
And I just did what I was told
Now I'm the bad guy for thinking this is getting old
It's not my fault you're colorblind
I'm done with you wasting my time
I'm done with you wasting my time
Pull me away
Make me believe that you wanna stay
Lost in thought of hearing your case
But your torn to bits so go on and throw this aside
A constant reminder there's no point and you lied
Tell me again how we got here
Caught in the days in this bed we laid
Just to only look as we pass by
And I just did what I was told
Now I'm the bad guy for thinking this is getting old
It's not my fault you're colorblind
I'm done with you wasting my time

How am I supposed to fix this
Given nothing but a firm stance
Last chance, no encouragement
But I could like it's messed up
And I just wish I had a map
Help me find my way back (help me find my way back)
How was I to know (how was I to know)
That everything I know or was told
Is just a hoax, a barely floating boat
Of late nights thinking myself into this hole
I'm used to all these blank stares
Telling me that I'm not welcome here
This place doesn't feel like home and it shows
I'm not who I was all those years ago
That smile you remember will be the last thing you'll know
Can't sleep
Barely eat (won't eat)
Finish punching in this time sheet
Still pissed (still pissed)
Fuck this (fuck this)
Can't seem to get a grasp of it
Don't say I'll be okay
When you're not helping a thing
Love is not in my chest
It's making me short of breath
How was I to know (how was I to know)
That everything I know or was told
Is just a hoax, a barely floating boat
Of late nights thinking myself into this hole
Caught by the hook
Struck from the back
When can I relax?
Glued to the floor
Can't take anymore
Lost all the slack
Now I'm the one who lack any self-control
Passed confident
Overloaded the system
The pursuing meltdown caused this (just listen)
There's no beat in this empty chest
A heart that could never pass the test
How am I supposed to fix this
Given nothing but a firm stance
Last chance, no encouragement
But I could like it's messed up
And I just wish I had a map
Help me find my way back (help me find my way back)
How was I to know (how was I to know)
That everything I know or was told
Is just a hoax, a barely floating boat
Of late nights thinking myself into this hole

I can't wait to feel something new
As long as it's not caught up in you
It's not the same to talk this way
But I see it's appeal not to stay
The sheets I made fell off again
I got caught sleepin in
Now all I want is to leave it alone
But I'm too scared to let go
I haven't been the best lately
But it's better than I was
Believing I am destined to be left behind
It's the reason I couldn't keep up this time
Restlessly getting through the nights
Found myself just wandering around
But this apathy is killing me
I just want to be six feet underground (six feet underground)
As long as I can find
A reason to keep me alive
I'll be fine, oh I'll be fine
Tell me I'm gonna be alright
Tell me I'm gonna be just fine
Cause the leaves are turning and I felt dead in the first place
Since the day I turned 16
I swear not a day's gone past
That hasn't felt like I'm thinking through broken glass
But as long as I can find
Something to keep me alive
I know I'll be fine
So here we go again
Did you find out you're barely a friend?
And I bet you're doing fine
Had no problem crossing a line
Was it really worth it?
Did you finally find your purpose
In someone just as absent as you
And I bet you have no clue
(Where the hell were you when this fell through
Just a deer in the headlights waiting for impact
So take your whining and all your crying
To someone who's got the patience) x2
