Blurry lights
I was right too scared to talk
But now I'm safe
And all year long you've practiced saving face
I have rights
Our emotions stripped away
And now I'm tossed
Hurry now we all mourn for your loss
You're getting bolder all the time
A never ending set of rules
That we all abide
I thought I gave you what you wanted
Don't pour salt on the wounds because I got presents for the kids
Daily fights
I was wrong, too scared to run
But now I'm right
Don't be nervous now I've got foresight
I have rights
Our emotions stripped away
And now I'm tossed
Hurry now I think the family's lost
You're getting bolder all the time
A never ending set of rules
That we all abide
I thought I gave you what you wanted
Yeah I gave you what you wanted, yeah I gave you
I get angry sometimes
My heart grows weary
But I hope that we see this thing through
I haven't seen the world
But I still have you with me
I just wouldn't trade that for you
(Whoa)
You're never going to see my face again
And my ghost will haunt your hallways till you're dead
And I'll seep inside the cracks
Don't pour salt on the wounds because I got presents for the kids

Conversate
Relate
Takes too much
Energy
Fix your face
Then we
Can pretend
We're all safe now
I'll never be a modern marvel
I'm just some sad fuck tellin' his friends he's tryin' to write a novel
Just watch it crumble
I watched my youthful march degrade into a stumble
I understand that people drift apart
Yet I'm not drifting, I'm afloat
Life has this tendency to be
A self-sustaining bitter joke
And I know somewhere I lost my heart
Where I'm not quite sure I suppose
I'm living proof that you can be
Alive but still a fucking ghost
I must have mumbled
They didn't hear me and somehow that made me tremble
With bitter grumbles
I'll just drown my bitterness, my liver's humble
I understand that people drift apart
Still I'm not drifting, I'm afloat
Life has this tendency to be
A self-sustaining bitter joke
And I know somewhere I lost my heart
Where I'm not quite sure
I suppose it all gets worked out in the wash
Yeah I suppose it all gets worked out in the wash
I understand that people drift apart
Yet I'm not drifting, I'm afloat
Life has this tendency to be
A self-sustaining bitter joke
And I know somewhere I lost my heart
Where I'm not quite sure I suppose
I'm living proof that you can be
Alive but still a fucking ghost

Let's cast aside our hope, our childhoods
Those days are fucking gone
We had it in our minds we'd change the world
How pitifully wrong
How could we be so wrong?
I'm growin' old
There are lines across my face I'll have you know
Is it so impossible to believe that they got the best of me at 24?
I'm not dead yet, someday they'll know
I punch the clock and hit the bar it's all my way of giving in
A drunken send off to a time I'll never get back to again
It's like I said
I'm growin' old
There are lines across my face I'll have you know
Is it so impossible to believe that they got the best of me at 24?
I'm not dead yet, someday they'll know
Anything
That you want
And I have
I'll give you
Everything
That they take
We should fight
To keep it now
Save your breath, be still
Need no reminders of the coming storm
This time I think their phazer is set to kill
These sick fucks get a thrill
At being wrong
It must be late
I see the traffic lights change from their blinking reds and yellows
This must be hate
That I'm feeling as I stare out of this second story window
I think that if it weren't for my loss of heart
I'd have left from the bitter start
They'd forget they ever knew my name
