lyrics

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
