It’s been so long, it seems, since summer's captivation Entranced in nightly dreams, you can't escape these memories Reasons turned into excuses, the ones that I abused Spinning you 'round in circles, out of breath, leaving you confused The miles in between us, forcing different worlds apart Exposing these lost feelings, I know now where you stand (I know now where you stand) Now that I see, you never really had my heart Stop doubting what was said and just know that I am right 'Cause I’m losing all my strength and I can’t take another fight If we waited until then, we will know that time was on our side But you had to act too quick on the feelings you can't hide (You can't hide) Your voice was broken, cracking from the need for air The noise that soothes me to sleep Your tears came falling, grasping black and writing My name upon your cheeks And as I open this letter I skim the words bathed in your perfume, and they said "Why can’t we see forever? Our differences will bring us together Hiding truths that made us unstable Now I regret every moment I forgave you” And that's all I have to remember 'cause that's all I found And that's all I have to remember, that's all I found That's all I have to remember, that's all I found Your voice was broken, cracking from the need for air The noise that soothes me to sleep Your tears came falling, grasping black and writing My name upon your cheeks

There is no trace of a healing Your falling tears ignite this selfish feeling It keeps me warm to know you're not content A quick reminder of our winters spent As we consume our last moments together A lesson learned that will haunt us forever It took an ending for me to realize To face these facts and retract our growing lies Don't tell me I was a mistake And you regret every choice we've made (Every choice we've made) And think of nothing every time you hear my name And if you don't bow your head and feel ashamed When our eyes last met, I knew that you were not okay But nothing matters when we're surfing on these vibes I have these thoughts of holding hands with you another day There is no cure (There is no cure) For the sickness that you bring (With what you bring) There is no cure (There is no cure) For the sickness that you bring (With what you bring) With what you bring Don't tell me I was a mistake And you regret every choice we've made (Every choice we've made) And think of nothing every time you hear my name And if you don't bow your head and feel ashamed (Bow your head and feel ashamed) When our eyes last met, I knew that you were not okay But nothing matters when we're surfing on these vibes I have these thoughts of holding hands with you another day

Let's let the memories drift away Let's let the memories drift away I'm taking down these pictures of you on my wall These scars still bleed, and I'm letting them drip on our past I'm torn between decision and dead reckoning If I'm not fair, then tell me, why do you still care? "Get out the car and walk away" I said with dried tears in my eyes, hoping you'd ignore my words You slammed the door and spun around as fast as you could To get away from all this mess So take this night (So take this night) And search for your answers I know you'll find what's right, and you'll still put me through hell I'm taking down these pictures of you on my wall These scars still bleed, and I'm letting them drip on our past I'm torn between decision and dead reckoning If I'm not fair, then tell me, why do you still care? These scars run deep, and they cover me Like an open wound without breathing room I can't heal like this, but it's you I miss This war won't end These words are coming out slowly And I mean it when I say I need you This war won't end You keep your heart where I can barely reach it And yet it's right in front of me This war won't end It'd be better off for the both of us if we'd took these truths and walked away This war won't end I'm taking down these pictures of you on my wall These scars still bleed, and I'm letting them drip on our past I'm torn between decision and dead reckoning If I'm not fair, then tell me, why do you still care? Let's let the memories drift away

It's safe to come out now No one is around This sugar-coated donut lost its flavor long ago And I just don't know what to think When your disguise begins to show Now I know I always think too slow 'Cause I never thought I would miss Our sweet forever of passion violence But I can't forget the wretched torment It's on its noose and hung beneath my rib You're hung beneath my rib This is an ordinary war This is the war that makes the world— Safe from democracy, and democracy was made safe from At the very same time— This is an ordinary war This is the war that makes the world more like— Can't you see Can't you see (Can't you see?) Why can't you see? My heart is branded (My heart is branded), it's all your fault You're hanging from my rib (From my rib), and I hope you fall My heart is branded, it's all your fault You're hanging from my rib, and I hope you fall 'Cause I never thought I would miss Our sweet forever of passion violence But I can't forget the wretched torment It's on its noose and hung beneath my ribs

This seam is splitting, torn apart Lacerations from the thoughts of you Choking me, your words shoved down my throat And I'm still bleeding from our first kiss (First kiss) The taste, so painful, I'm forced to clench my fists Every time you turn around You'll feel my presence And when you glance up at the stars Everyone will be crashing down on you Woah, you'll see me, the sky Calling out your name And yet, for some reason, I still absent-mindedly Come back for more (Come back for more) Every time you turn around You'll feel my presence And when you glance up at the stars Everyone will be crashing down on you Woah, you'll see me, the sky Calling out your name Maybe someday, I'll realize That this storm will someday pass me by Maybe someday, I'll realize That this storm will someday pass me by (You'll pass me by) You'll see me, the sky Calling out your name You'll call your name (Your name)

Why don't you use your knives? Continue to stick them in my face Leave them to be our memories That I plan to lose Just like I lost you (Lost you) I guess I'll just cope with what I can't control After all, it means the best for the both of us At night, when you hear me breathing Under the covers is where you'll find me Trying to escape your endless reign of terror (Terror) Stale sweat running all over my body I'm drowning in my dreams, I'm drowning in my dreams I can't wake now I'll sleep forever I can't wake now "Death is only the beginning" What if tomorrow never comes How will I know you loved me? I just need something to live for So I'll never die again What if tomorrow never comes How will I know you loved me? I just need something to live for So I'll never die again (Again) I will be able to sleep at night With a smile upon her face I will be able to sleep at night With a smile upon her face

Bite my tongue, right now the perfect time Do anything to make her happy Even if it means my being miserable As long as she's loving life I will be able to sleep at night With a smile upon her face I will be able to sleep at night With a smile upon her face The thought of a smile not being there My inner feelings would be shattered A piece of glass puncturing my heart I'm bleeding from the inside I will be able to sleep at night With a smile upon her face I will be able to sleep at night With a smile upon her face As long as she's perfectly fine I hope she's perfectly fine And someday she will be mine I will be able to sleep at night With a smile upon her face As long as she's perfectly fine I hope she's perfectly fine (I hope she's perfectly fine) (And someday she will be mine) And someday she will be mine
