Just another normal Sunday That turned into such a nightmare When we saw him laying on the floor Puke surrounding his bed I spent a lot of time with him You’d think I would have noticed We thought we were his friends We thought he felt the same but We had it wrong We had it wrong YOU LEFT ME FEELING LIKE WE’VE MADE A MISTAKE WE NEVER WANTED YOU TO FEEL LIKE YOU HAD NOBODY WE THOUGHT THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WE’LL NEVER FORGET THAT SUNDAY ON GORDON AND PEARL He never talked to us He never told us that he Wasn’t happy anymore That we should have listened more You shouldn’t turn your back on us You cant remove the hurt that you caused I guess the hardest part was cause He said that he had no friends but He had it wrong He had it wrong YOU LEFT ME FEELING LIKE WE’VE MADE A MISTAKE WE NEVER WANTED YOU TO FEEL LIKE YOU HAD NOBODY WE THOUGHT THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WE’LL NEVER FORGET THAT SUNDAY ON GORDON AND PEARL Its such an awful feeling that builds up inside When one of your friends wishes that he would die He thought nobody loved him and he never tried to Reach out to us, to tell us how he felt inside YOU LEFT ME FEELING LIKE WE’VE MADE A MISTAKE WE NEVER WANTED YOU TO FEEL LIKE YOU HAD NOBODY WE THOUGHT THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WE’LL NEVER FORGET THAT SUNDAY ON GORDON AND PEARL

Although I have my friends and have my family I've never felt more alone, It's built up inside of me I smile and I laugh so no one has to see That there's no way that they will ever understand me But I know that you wont You don’t know anything about me And I don’t expect you to You don’t know anything about me SO WHAT IS IT YOU'RE SEEING WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING STRAIGHT AT ME I CANT EVEN STOP TO THINK BECAUSE MY HEART IS BOUND TO SINK ALL THESE THOUGHTS IN MY HEAD SLOWLY ROT AND INFEST I CANT BEGIN TO DIGRESS CAUSE THIS MESS IS DIRTIER THAN YOU THINK My ship has a torn sail And a broken rudder I'm not quite the Bismark But I've been better SO WHAT IS IT YOU'RE SEEING WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING STRAIGHT AT ME I CANT EVEN STOP TO THINK BECAUSE MY HEART IS BOUND TO SINK ALL THESE THOUGHTS IN MY HEAD SLOWLY ROT AND INFEST I CANT BEGIN TO DIGRESS CAUSE THIS MESS IS DIRTIER THAN YOU THINK THAN IT SHOULD EVER BE IT SAYS THAT I WILL NEVER LEAVE IT SAYS THAT RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME IT SAYS THAT RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME So when you see me walking underneath your streetlights Just remember that I'm not as happy as you think I am (I'm living a dead end) I'm living a dead end You see, you'll never have to know I'm two steps from failure And it wont ever have to show You will never have to know How I feel inside I'm living a lie WHAT DO YOU SEE YOU LOOK AT ME AND ALL THESE THOUGHTS IN MY HEAD THEY SLOWLY ROT AND INFEST AND I CANT CLEAN UP THIS MESS ITS DIRTIER THAN YOU.

State Lines 04:10
She goes by the book But I scribble outside the lines I'll never have her cause she's out of my state lines I can recite But she'd never respond She's The perfect soundtrack But the volume's off A shaky heart and sweaty palms A phone call "don't do this to me" I remember our last date It's an awkward feeling knowing that was going to be the last night I slept by your side You left me hanging dry in a unfamiliar place A tear filled face A tattered Soaking pillowcase From all the years of tears From the absence of you here I used to want to grow old with you Now I'm old and all I want to do Is go back to when we were young and new You used to tell me everything But now you act like I'm not listening But I still hear you (I still hear you) What were you running from You're just a heartbreaker and you know it I’m not the only one that you've torn apart I was just the start of it all Love is your downfall Breaking every wing you can use to fly to me So fall Fall away So fall I used to want to grow old with you now I'm old and all I want to do Is go back to when we were young and new You used to tell me everything But now you act like I'm not listening But I still hear you (I still hear you) I still hear you When we were young Our days weren't numbered You're number one And I'm outnumbered We can't re-live All that I have missed and wasted I'm feeling broke and underrated I don't think you know it's hurting me Everyday You hurt me I used to want to grow old with you Now I'm old and all I want to do Is go back to when we were young and new You used to tell me everything But now you act like I'm not listening But I still hear you I used to want to grow old with you Now I'm old and all I want to do Is go back to when we were young and new You used to tell me everything But now you act like I'm not listening But I still hear you I still hear you.

I'm not happy any more Since you did leave I'm not scared anymore Of the beach But you left me alone And defeated Im scared but im not Underneath it I don’t feel alone anymore Since you did leave These feelings were deep inside me And now so empty But I left you In the dust And now youre alone the most Out of the two of us But im sorry Im not sorry im not sorry That you left me

Walls 03:31
I know I'm nothing but I'm feeling free For the first time I can see clearly again Finally know how to trust again It's been five years since she left But my abandonment has brought me straight to you They say everything happens for a reason and I hate it but its true cause I got you These are my walls Didn’t know it could feel this good again These are my walls We can tear them brick by brick A slow but surely better end You're the only one I let inside Since the last time that I died A painful shot straight through the heart Semi-permanently injured But you repaired me You took control of me Showed me how to love again Showed me how to not pretend These are my walls Didn’t know it could feel this good again These are my walls We can tear them brick by brick A slow but surely better end These are my walls Didn’t know it could feel this good again These are my walls We can tear them brick by brick A slow but surely better end I hope you can finally see What you mean to me I hope you know I'll never leave It’s a lot for me This was meant to be These are my walls though They were never meant to show We can tear them brick by brick, crash to the floor And so, promise you wont ever go Trust me ive had enough of that for the both of us to know The Both of us to know

Living my life in reverse Maturity has showed me the way I want to live my life I need to live my life, I was Force-fed to think like this We should live with caution and not be reckless We are the reckless ones and this year will make us So when we're gone don’t forget me You can bet we'll be lonely WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THOSE NIGHTS WE USED TO SPEND WITH OUR FRIENDS THEY'RE GONE AND THEY'RE NEVER COMING BACK AGAIN SOMEHOW I KNOW WE'LL MAKE IT OUT ALIVE SO LONG, GOODBYE I could never go on not knowing What could have become This year we're gonna do it right Nobody can tell us different We're doing it our way It's our way and they will see We are the reckless one And this year will make us WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THOSE NIGHTS WE USED TO SPEND WITH OUR FRIENDS THEY'RE GONE AND THEY'RE NEVER COMING BACK AGAIN SOMEHOW I KNOW WE'LL MAKE IT OUT ALIVE SO LONG, GOODBYE If we never go then we will never know This is our biggest risk and we cant miss it If we never go then we will never know This is our biggest risk You know that it’s the right think to do Because no one is making you I put so much aside just hoping for this We'll put in blood, sweat, and tears and never give up our faith They say persistence is the key to success I've spent the past twenty-five years just trying to figure out this It's not over Until this cold summer ends And we'll make it on our own And we'll come back as bigger men
