yr eyes were as bright as the sky that summer day
i was hoping you'd remember my name
steam rose from the pavement on the parking lot
no one noticed but i was hopping while i tried to make my day
i thought that you were pretty and super cool, but no one knew me
so it was hard to try to make new conversation
but i stuck through and told you things that no one knew
i remember every word that you would say
remember when
you had to go home
and you told yrself
it was all yr fault
and you told me
you wanted to die that night
and you might try
to take yr own life
so we slept in
and i kissed you
said "i love you"
i felt so important
for the first time
i was on yr mind
you had noticed me
really changed my life
i was dancing
out of yr sunroof
and i knew that you were special
all i want is you
i remember the late nights
all the time spent
the distance between
really makes me homesick...

remember when you came into my room when i was sleeping?
i do, you woke me up
i tried to speak, but you screamed, "fuck
i hate all the little fucking things you do
i'm tired of always having to put up with you
so where's my fucking bracelet, i'm getting out
i'm blocking yr number, yr time is up"
heartbroken, 16 again
i've got another reason to keep sleeping in
don't try to say yr sorry and it's all yr fault
i'm positively over it, i'm moving on
i guess this is the end...
remember when i tried to tell a joke on the day that we spent
at yr house? i sort of laughed
i was hoping that you'd like it, but you said, "jack
i'm tired of this bullshit, i know what you want
if you don't like this top, then i can take it off"
so we did the things that make teenagers feel grown up
and then the door opened up (ah fuck, this is bad news)
nocturnal, 17 again
i'm a living good reason not to have any kids
i'm a waste of yr time, always sat on the side
while you text and drove yr way right through my fucked up life
i guess this is the end...

well, if the sun don't shine tonight
well, that wouldn't really blow my mind
it's not supposed to, last i checked
the moon comes up so we don't go blind
yeah, i'm still super lazy and i'm bad at sports
i'm a paranoid depressive with a shitty guitar
and i forgot to take my medication
for like the seventh time this week
and if my language hurts yr feelings
i'm really truly kinda sorry
i don't mean to say the things i say
but i don't really know if anyone could stop me...
woke up at 10 am with a text on my phone
it said, "i'm always here if you are ever feeling alone"
and now i feel like i owe her something
for making me feel okay
suicide is stupid and i'm not gonna try it
but i really need to try to start to get on a diet
all my friends are worried about me
i eat like shit because it makes me happy
and all my doctors have tried and tried
to make me feel like i'm alive
but all of the pills are running dry
i still need to get outside
i try so damn hard every day of my life...
i've spent these last twenty days doing some soul searching
all that's trapped beneath is talks i had with maddie aldrich
we were sitting in front of tony's in the front seat of my car
and i don't hide it from my friends when i'm feeling depressed
i just open up my mouth and let the shit spray out
they always know just what to say
how do they always know just what to say?
singing songs about yr friends
can get old, yes i'm aware
but i don't think that i am cool enough
to write songs about doing drugs
singing songs about yr friends
can get old, yes i'm aware
but i don't think that i am cool enough
to write songs about doing drugs
so i guess this one's for you, maddie aldrich
even though i haven't seen you in 3 months...

you need to think about what yr saying the next time we're together
because you tricked me into thinking that i could've spent another
silver night sky on yr bed and try to get weird again
you told me that this life is all that we had left
but i can tell yr hiding something, yeah there's thoughts you are suppressing
do you feel me like i feel you on this winter night?
probably not
because that feeling that you get tends to fade over time
and yr mother's told you once before that in the end, love will leave you blind
and i'd love to change yr mind...
you need to think about what yr saying the next time to leave town
because the promises you make you cannot hold, you let me down
but that's alright, i never made my family proud
and while i chase you through the snow, i breathe you in, i let you go
i let the snowflakes hit my nose, i feel yr warmth down to my toes
yr glow, it fills me
i need to let you know
that i'd go to where you were if i had absolutely no one to leave behind
and i swear you'd do the same if you just give me a tiny bit more time
to try and change yr mind.

i want to go back
but i'll never again
i don't have to touch you
ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
and i want to get you off my back
yr touch gives me bad headaches
i've got a bad headache right now (now, oh)
my bed's too far away (too far away...)

dreamscapes meet heartbreaks
they fuel my constant headache
blue eyes meet grey skies
i feel like i'm awake
and i saw wolves deep in the woods i stood in
and i became one with the shadows i hid in
i can't tell if i am dreaming
all my limbs are losing feeling
oh, i feel it deep inside me
tossing, turning, take this body...
nightmares meet grey hairs
remind me that you're not here
cool breeze meet short sleeves
i feel it brush my bare knees
and i fell down into the grass which consumed me
the roots pulled me down into the ground, i can't breathe
i can't tell if i am dreaming
all my limbs are losing feeling
oh, i feel it deep inside me
tossing, turning, take this body...
