I watched the sunrise at 5am And you said I didn't look too good And that I should get some rest But I haven't been able to sleep since then And I never will again (I never will again) And every night feels like a wake I spend more time frying my brain I don't know why I'm gonna do with my life (a bunch of woahs) SAX SOLO

I learned a lot of things about myself I didn't know were true that night You called me over baring. Well I'm starting to think that your were right There's a light at the end of this tunnel Get in a car we'll drive towards it I know it can't be too far Ever since the day that you left. I've been thanking god under my breath. To watch you go like the hope like the friends I thought i had Like the stab in the back again and again Maybe we can go until something ends And I've been holding anger in my throat Bleeding gums and disappointed look on your face It's a race it's a death sentence with a beating heart And I can't wait 'till the day I get to watch you fall apart

It must be real hard to live uncomfortable in your own skin Walking around like your in the wrong skeleton But it's great to know you're happy and alive and smiling In every photo I've seen of you recently And I know it's dumb to judge your happiness based on those poses In front of landmarks that you come across But I need closure since you left this town there were so many things that I never said You shaved your face before you left You said that you were not the man you were born to be So I hope you're happy I hope you smile In your new town with your new friends in Your new skin

When you leave forever and we never see each other (Please stay in touch) Cause I'm no good with change, but I have a lot of time so (I'm in no rush to ever grow up) The aftermath is killing me So won't you please promise me That when you're gone when you leave That you'll stay in touch It started with a song or two now I've written too much for you (Please stay in touch) And this song sucks just like the rest, but it's 3am and I'm a mess (it's just too much my incompetence is a crutch) (Chorus again) (Breakdown?) (Chorus again) Please don't try to tell me in another awkward lie that nothing's really changed and that everything's alright I remembered all your words cause your words amount to none Cause your off with your friends in a better skeleton (CHORUS AGAIN) I know I'm making a big deal but please stay in touch You drove down that highway and we never saw you again In my opinion I think that's how you wanted it

I asked a preacher how I should live my life He said it doesn't really matter cause everybody dies So I sat around and wondered what it must feel like To decompose into piles of bones in front of your eyes and I Called some old friends and told them I'm sorry for the way I act sometime and every fight we ever had chances are you were always right And I realized I could miss when you were seen empty And I had forgotten what I was gonna say You were dressed up in the latest fashion statements of a brain dead generation that prides it self on it's lack of communication (this line makes me sound like and old person) I tried to say hi but you Never bothered looking my way I started to say goodbye In case you ever listen to what I say Why do all the people I love the most always hate themselves the most? Im trying not to be such an asshole to my friends I'm playing ghost in the graveyard on every weekend I asked a preacher how I should live my life he said it doesn't really matter cause everybody dies Every body dies Everybody dies okay okay I get it now everybody dies and I am no exception to the rules of life Cause everybody dies

Sitting in a town where no one knows my name as the sun beat down on my burnt face and I look at these people as they go through the routine as they go to work it occurs to me that we're all bags of blood, flesh, bone, and teeth and some of these bags got the idea to put us in cages to fight wars that they wage and we won't have a say in whatever we do today Sitting in a town where no one knows my name and I feel like we're pieces in a big cosmic in a house or a home or a grave or a tomb we put skeletons in boxes cause they need a home too I am young I am weak I hope I want die in vain I find reasons to love I find reasons to hate the world that we live in and I hope that one day I will be strong enough to provoke some positive change

I learned more about you from your obituary Then I ever did from you talking to me Hell did you ever even talk to me? You were laid out for us to see In a wooden box so comfortably lined with satin or velvet or something it was the fist time I ever saw you at ease Smoke filled room full of smoke filled lung Inhaling death exhaling some Philosophy on how they'll stay young and the cancers growing inside their lungs won't kill them until they're ready to (die) Throwing up in a stranger's bathroom A stranger that I've known for years The one that laughed at all of my jokes But not all of those were meant to be jokes Just the awkward passings the quick goodbyes The silence, sins, the room around me The lines and wrinkles on your face contorted into words And told me all the stories that I had never heard You were laying on the bed you asked how I've been I said I've been just fine I kept my hands in my pockets And I don't remember the last thing I said to you I just remember my hands shaking when I stepped into your room Now I'm afraid to see the bodies the tombstones in the grass The perfect grids of storage for the people who had passed The stories that you kept inside are gonna rot and grow or be food for the flies

It seems like things are always getting colder and it will be like this forever but it won't And under better circumstances would this have turned out better then it did God dammit I don't ever shut my mouth And in the summer So far away from right now Do you think that you'll still be around? If I don't stammer on the words again Stop pretending in this skeleton that things are okay right now How have you been? Looks like I'm doing this again. Less childish then before I guess But that's not that big of an accomplishment Cause I'm still kicking and screaming like a kid (DRUMZZZZZZZ) Cause It feels like I'm just wasting my god damn time making songs that I want you to hear So I'll pretend that things aren't all that different That the lines between now and then haven't Really changed at all (Emo breakdown): God dammit I don't ever shut my mouth Is this what growing up's about Fucking up Fucking up Fucking up Fucking up I'm really fucking up
