these issues bring big shoes to fill
i'll swallow all my words like pills
my high school memory left with you
its gone
everything i love is passing on
i've made mistakes i've told my lies
and now its coming to this
i knew that a life of love
would only end in a last kiss
cause falling in love with you meant falling out of line
and now i'm conjuring strategies trying to keep you in mind
yellow lights and sleepless nights just lead me to wonder
how the hell ill get over this
if i never wandered over to your house
these problems never solve themselves
like ice cubes on hot summer day we'll melt
but winter keeps me frozen at the core
passed out on a couch you've seen before
i kept my secrets in bottles
and i threw them out into the sea
writing the words cause i feel a-l-o-n-e
cause falling in love with you meant falling out of line
now i'm conjuring strategies trying to keep you in mind
on a bed of nails i lay every night
when i'm speeding through the dotted white lines
if i never wandered home before day light
i'm just young and i'm stupid
i'm fucked up and useless
i'm trying to breathe but can't open my lungs
alone and abusive quiet frankly a nuisance
an introvert i'm unable to love
and all this is pointless
i'm trapped in my conscious
i'm trying to see but now i am blind
home before bedtime i'm staring at streetlights
i'm dead inside, it's just that i'm dead inside

each of us forever as one
everything to lose summers just begun
so cover the distance with roses and doves
and spoil the future by forgetting our love
ill wait for the morning the sun will still rise
your typewriters in sync with the night
flashing in patterns under these big city lights
well i run from birds that sing to you
crashing down like an avalanche
so tell me why is the ocean blue
and bring me back a jar of sand

we were driving down the street in your dads beat up pontiac
talked about death and you swore i was a maniac
and i should have kissed you but all i could remember
was the look on your face when i was staring at you in december
Its not a thing to call home anymore
so tell me to look at the progress
and tell me you understand it all
amoure
