Did we ever get it figured out? Still sifting Through the hopeless doubt Salubrious memories Infecting me With what I can’t be So don’t bury me Beneath Box Springs Underneath the “C” Maybe we should take my car into the mountains Swerve off a curve I’m self aware So I could really use the air I keep tying myself up With these seraphic melodies I’ll bring the GameCube You bring the Tv We can set it up Next to your porch swing And play the whole way through I hate the scary parts So I’ll hand it off to you And play the whole way through I’ll hand it off to you Maybe we should take my car into the mountains Swerve off a curve I’m self aware So I could really use the air I hate that I still think back To the river Intransigent memories Of throwing pennies off of parking lots Sat in the back seat Shivering with me A hazy mind Forgets the worst Of where I’ve been And who I am Reflection of adolescent recklessness It’s who I am Maybe we should take my car into the mountains Swerve off a curve I’m self aware So I could really use the air It’s who I am

Hey, I’d wait forever if you say Standing in the doorway Never leave my head anyway Fingers locked and interlaced My home inside the fray Head above the water If it can it will get harder Stuck talking in my sleep Take it all back Let the past be in the past I’m just hoping that you’ll stay But I’m just a mess I am lost in between The lines in the sand That I drew in front of me The endless refrain We undress To shift from the pain And take it all away You take it all away Head above the water If it can it will get harder Stuck talking in my sleep Take it all back Let the past be in the past I’m just hoping that you’ll stay I’ll sit quietly Sink into the seat Tapping my foot As I hear you sing You are everything I want to see inside myself Picture of your smile Mounted on my shelf Give and take the emptiness And leave me in your brain You are the distant summer The smell after the rain Crowned your head in flowers And held you in my arms Never thought I’d live forever To think I’d get this far Head above the water If it can it will get harder Stuck talking in my sleep Take it all back Let the past be in the past I’m just hoping that you’ll stay

I can’t stand the painted glass Realized in wreckage It was only me staring back We were just broken kids, Breaking things, That looked like we did anger comes in like a flood Swept us up swept us up Make the best of it Swept us up I saw the bruises lining up your back You never even said a word hung like an anchor from your chest laughed it off to hide the tears We were just broken kids, Breaking things, That looked like we did anger comes in like a flood Swept us up swept us up Make the best of it Swept us up I remember the stare held under coming up for air You turned to me to do the same Hide away beneath the smile The long way home Chlorine eyes Our new excuse We were just broken kids, Breaking things, That looked like we did anger comes in like a flood Swept us up swept us up Make the best of it Swept us up

I’m trying to figure out What it was you were talking about In between Pushing your couch Down the stairs Forget it man just leave it there I ripped my shirt off Climbing over the fence And you gave me yours to wear instead And I hate The reverb in your heart The echos always tearing the ones you love apart Grind your teeth while you sleep in bed Constant metronome ticking inside my head I keep chasing towards the beat But I drag instead, And feel the dissonance ring out Until I'm dead I want to hold the warmth that spills out from your face Swallow it whole to fill what You’ve misplaced Riddled with holes, you seep out and stagnate So spread the spores that cling to your decay I’m trying to figure out What it was you were talking about At Castleview creek Fell into the water And then you jumped in after me I covered up the hole with tape Against the backyard fence You made me stay Out of the side lines We’re all just wasting time Out of the side lines We’re all just flawed by design Grind your teeth while you sleep in bed Constant metronome ticking inside my head I keep chasing towards the beat But I drag instead, And feel the dissonance ring out Until I'm dead I want to hold the warmth that spills out from your face Swallow it whole to fill what You’ve misplaced Riddled with holes, you seep out and stagnate So spread the spores that cling to your decay I’m trying to figure out What it was you were talking about

Hope turns your head, the air is warm Someone’s missing from the rocking chair on the front porch So hide on the swingset in the backyard With no one pushing from behind you know you won’t go too far Start taking two steps back Toss a paper note between the open glass Well maybe if he was around You’d be sleeping in the living room on the ground Break your bones to fit a mold Crafted by who you still hold In your heart And on your mind Complacent So you don’t leave the ghosts behind Sew your skin up like a quilt Keeping warm under the guilt There’s nothing more you could have changed It’s not your fault But that’s just the way it goes Pick out belongings you’ll be leaving soon So turn away from white flowers and balloons And the bed is still stained with the scent of life Looking forward to tomorrow leave this all behind And your breath is stale just like his last When you exhale it all comes back Flooding memories that hold you down And there won’t be another since he is not around Break your bones to fit a mold Crafted by who you still hold In your heart And on your mind Complacent So you don’t leave the ghosts behind Sew your skin up like a quilt Keeping warm under the guilt There’s nothing more you could have changed It’s not your fault But that’s just the way it goes It’s not your fault It’s not your fault That’s just the way it goes

You are the stained glass window reflecting light To drown inside your colors you know I might So maybe we could meticulously Feel the blithe within our company Count me in a life with you around stay in my head lost and now we’re found Count me in a life with you around stay in my head lost and now we’re found Hung with the plastic trophy Above the fireplace 6 years annoyed a smile on your face All talk like someone Who hasn’t got it wrong So stand up tall Our pulse behind the the wall
