I'm having trouble walking straight lines
and you can't catch your breath
you'll lose it all if you're counting on me
is it too late to say I'm sorry
sometimes everything you want is gone
sometimes these heavy heart hang on
to pen and paper
will this notebook hold this bottle
will these songs make you cry
will everyone with a broken heart
sing along, sing along
sometimes everything you want is gone
sometimes these heavy heart hang on
to pen and paper
you'll lose it all if you're counting on me
is it too late to say I'm sorry
will everyone with a broken heart
sing along, sing along
will everyone with a broken heart, sing along (Its too late if you're counting on me)
will everyone with a broken heart, sing along (Its too late if you're counting on me)
will everyone with a broken heart, sing along (Its too late if you're counting on me)
will everyone with a broken heart, sing along (Its too late if you're counting on me)

Please someone stop these spinning stars
it's getting harder and harder to breath
for fear of knives I've drank a hole in my insides
it might take a while but I'll bleed out just the same
you're the needle in my veins
my anesthesia
light up my insides
have I gone too far
blood for the pale and alms for the poor
you're running faster than my speeding heart
it's not a ghost you've seen
it's me running on empty
the blood has left my lips
oh my god i'm feeling faint

since we can't move forward enough to see an end
some so lost i guess we can just keep it up, keep it up
we act like kids when we stumble around
trying to find our place
this town is nothing but a constant reminder
i never want to feel trapped
we never had the time to say goodbye
old friendships end, the things we once were
won't mean anything
cause we've forgotten everything
no matter how bad it gets (everything)
no matter how bad it gets (everything)
no matter how bad it gets (everything)
no matter how bad it gets (everything)
we've forgotten everything
we've forgotten everything
no matter how bad it gets, we can always go home
no matter how bad it gets, we can always go home
no matter how bad it gets, we can always go home
no matter how bad it gets, we can always go home

lets burn every bridge
lets break every heart
disguise ourselves as cold machines
on pins and nails we'll get lost in the details
why were we so afraid
why were we so afraid
you're a car crash and I'm a train wreck
neither one of us survives
you're a car crash and I'm a train wreck
neither one of us survives
neither one survives

Into this empty glass, I pour my broken heart
look past the taste and drink it with a smile
until the sunrise puts out the streetlights
and I've forgotten every word you've said
word you've said
there's a lot to be said about nights like these
beneath the streetlights
those swaying streetlights
to you I give my heart
beneath the streetlights
those swaying streetlights
to you I give my heart

when I close my eyes
it's no surprise it's you
staring back at me
keeping me far from sleep
drunk as fuck staring up at the ceiling
pour me another drink
I just woke up and just remembered that I’m
still alive
some how I am still alive
you're leaving me behind again and I can't take it
wont be smiling soon 'cause I can't fake it like you
there's nothing here but empty rooms
and this empty heart
but some how
some how I am still alive
you're leaving me behind again and I can't take it
wont be smiling soon 'cause I can't fake it like you
I don't believe what you're saying.
you're lying through your teeth.

Its not fair to say we have everything we need to be content
when our lives just revolve around fifty hour weeks
with just barely enough time to spend with friends
and realize its not enough in the end
and we can't get back all these days we've wasted
all this time we've wasted
and we can't just pretend we're OK with how things
how things never change
and its not like we ever had the right frame of mind
to do something thats greater than ourselves
this stupid degree means nothing if I can't be myself
feeling old with nothing to show
who's to say we're trapped in this place
has nothing to hold us back from leaving and finding
something worth while I'll just laugh it off again smile and say goodbye
this time I know its for good
and we can't get back all these days we've wasted
all this time we've wasted
and we can't just pretend we're OK with how things
how things never change

you can't start over without fixing what you broke
if it never happened you're bound to make the same mistakes
(over and over forgive and forget)
we can't start over, can't ever start
we can't start over, can't ever start up again
look inside yourself it's you, you hate
don't say I bring you down
it's sad how much you need some one to pick you up
we can't start over, can't ever start
we can't start over, can't ever start up again
I will not lose sleep over you any more
I’ve washed my hands of this shit
you can only say "I hate you"
so many times before I believe
you can't keep
keep saying
things you don't even believe yourself

please take the next left you see
it's cold and it stung
I need familiar streets
in passing we wont say a word
just force our eyes to the ground
this is the last thing I’ll do
it's over it's over
that you could call nice
it's over it's over
I’ll hold the door for you
it's over it's over
as you walk out
it must have taking you months
to come up with nothing to say
did you bite your own tongue
forcing you to break your own heart
I’ll fold my hand to you
it's over it's over
take all that you wish
it's over it's over
I close my eyes and bite my lips
it's over it's over
and you said "this wont hurt a bit"

I can't breath for the life of me
but I’ll try and blow you a kiss
you wave good bye as you're pulling away
pulling on my heart strings
and everything that fell apart,
was nowhere near your fault
you can point all your fingers at me
you say I scare you as you fell asleep
holding tightly to my hand
well hold your breath
we've got nothing left
but we'll make it through
tonight I hope you're dreaming of me
cause I can't stop thinking of you
you're worth more than a rain check
too good for I.O.U.s
it's OK you have me to hate
though I’d kill to see you smile
it's bought and paid
I’ve made a shit parade
out of our lives
kiss me before I fall apart
and say it's not my fault
and that all roads you take
will lead to me

Wrap It Up

Waking up today might be impossible. This room is cold and bright. Words are slipping off my tongue
Wrap me up until it's too hard to breathe
Send me out, send me off
I hate it when I'm torn away
This night is dragging by, hungover and tongue tied. Dead on my feet spitting blood, but I'm stumbling to you
The one I've waited for. Forever, hopelessly yours. Heart to heart, hand in hand,
Eyes closed and falling to the ground
|

My hands are shaking and I'm short of breath
Is this taking too long to say that I'm falling for you
I'm wide awake. Yeah I cant sleep
In fact the sun's already up and I've lost all faith in counting sheep
I just want to buy you a drink, Do my best to make you smile
Walk you home after you confessed to me, You've had such a lovely time
I know its late but I'm so drunk. I thought that maybe you should know
my head wont leave the clouds when you're around
Cause you gotta smile more contagious than a yawn, My feet don't ever touch the ground
Heartsick and broken over you!!!

X's on Exes
Your name burns like acid on the tip of my tongue
You're a horrible fucking person, a horrible fucking person
Did you make your mother proud fucking ever guy in town
You'll end up alone in the end, in the end...
I hope you die wide awake, I hope you die wide awake, I hope you die
I hope you die wide awake, I hope you die wide awake, I hope you die
I hope you die
30 Second Dance Party
Broken hearts from these unanswered phone calls
I don't know what I'll do with myself
It's getting better now . I won't go quietly
and I know, that I'm right and I'll try
to cross those Ts and dot those Is..

We stay late, we wake up too early and on and on, and on and on it seems to go.
Lose my step, lose my way, I've got one foot in the grave and a song for every drink.
It's leaving me breathless, I hate when I'm like this. MY hand shake, my knees are weak..
Count pieces of me falling, fuck shooting stars. Cause wishes don't come true and if they did,
I'd give all my wishes to you..
And tonight I won't be anywhere with anyone at all, just drunk and alone and waiting for you to call
and on and on and on and on it seems to go.
