You were the matches
I was the branches set ablaze
I guess nothing’s changed
I miss when we were strangers
I’ve got nothing to show
Except these fucking songs
Bet they never take your breath away
But why should they
Why should they
Sleeplessness I have to let this go
But these days it’s so impossible
Leave a mark on the inside
Someday I’ll feel alright
Whenever you decide
At least in my head
I can pretend this never happened
Pretend this isn’t real
Pretend this isn’t real
At least in my head
I can pretend we never mattered
It never mattered, it never mattered
But it’s still wrong
Sleeplessness I have to let this go
But these days it’s so impossible
Leave a mark on the inside
Someday I’ll feel alright
Whenever you decide
It's alright
We were falling down
So fast we forgot
How to hold on
But life goes on
Spinning in circles
Staring at the ceiling
Doesn’t mean as much to me anymore
Sleeplessness I have to let this go
But these days it’s so impossible
Leave a mark on the inside
Someday I’ll feel alright
Whenever you decide
It's alright
We were falling down
So fast we forgot
How to hold on
But life goes on
Spinning in circles
and staring at the ceiling
doesn't mean as much to me anymore

It feels like spring and I
Can’t be left alone
With these thoughts of escaping
Throwing sensibilities
into the unknown
into the unknown
I don’t know where this compass points
still trying to find my voice
Gently, I try to comprehend what you
Meant when you left me for dead
Buried alive with no hope of survival
Or a single goodbye
A song without a title
I’m begging
For an exit
But it's always too late
Always too late
You had the depth
That flooded these bad dreams
I took a deep breath
And drowned in your morphine
Whatever is left
Of this broken purpose
This story has no context
And I’m still fucking nervous about it
Still fucking nervous
I'm buried alive with no hope of survival
Or a single goodbye
A song without a title
I’m begging
For an exit
But it's always too late
Always too late
Gently, into the unknown
I am empty
But inside there’s a cyclone
That tears me
Into the unknown
Into the unknown
I can’t sleep
Knowing there’s not a place I can call my home

Camera into focus
We don’t wanna miss this time
The worst that we’ve broken
Has yet to be left behind
From a different perspective
I’ve yet to
Disable the fuse that’s in your mind
Deliberate attempts to forget you
Have all come undone
Now I’m standing down
Is there a reason you’re alright
While I’m still gasping for, gasping for
The air that never comes
But you breathe so easily
As you brace yourself
And race for the end of the road
From this perspective
I’ve seen the wreckage
Already burning at the bottom
When it turns upside-down
I’ll forget you
I fell before
But this time it’s bound to be the end
There’s no trying to forget
I see my life flash before my eyes
Before the impact takes us away
Do you ever get tired
Tired of taking the easy way out
Do you ever get sick of feeling lost
Running without a purpose
Sky-blue sundress from the driver’s side window
Rolled down to reveal
A shattered expression
An unrecognizable reflection of
The guilt that once was mine
Picking up glass from the shoulder
In millions of pieces that
Can never be sewn back together
Slowly I feel the pressure
Collapsing my heart, collapsing my heart
Slowly I feel your body
Collapse in my arms, collapsing in my arms
Middle of the road
You don’t owe me anything
Your debt to me is paid
You’re dead to me
You’re dead to me
And I just
Want you to live with what I saw

Always lost
This idea that you perceived
How we made ourselves believe
We were meant for so much brighter
It's always me
I know I fucked up somewhere
And promised I'd be someone you can love
But believe me
I'm still trying to hide
How deep this hurt me
Tears me up inside
It’s never worth it
I'm lost without you
But life sucks with you
So lost without you
But life sucks with you, with you
You’ve always seen
All the things that made me weak
All the times you said to me
It's probably just in my head
So can you please forget
Even though I won't
From the first day
I still remember what you wore
I'm still trying to hide
How deep this hurt me
Tears me up inside
It’s never worth it
I'm lost without you
But life sucks with you
So lost without you
But life sucks with you, with you
Well we tried to take the high road
But I won’t waste the words
You always thought I used so well
And then you came back to haunt me
In a February dream
Safe in my head just like a dream
I'm still trying to hide
How deep this hurt me
Tears me up inside
It’s never worth it
I'm lost without you
But life sucks with you
So lost without you
But life sucks with you, with you, with you

Panic doesn’t help when
You’re alone in space
I’m tired of breaking down
Just to rebuild
On shakier foundations than before
I thought I’d like
Some peace of mind
Turns out it’s just as boring as I thought
It’d be without a tragedy
This sadness sucks
But it’s all I’ve known
It’s never gonna change
At least not today
While you’re still happily
Hopeless, princess
The tragic hero becomes the enemy
But that’s just how the story goes
I’ll always find a way home
Even when you don’t believe
Don’t believe in me
I’ll find a way out
I’ll let this pain, fade away
I’ll let this pain fade
No thanks to anyone
This sadness sucks
But it’s all I’ve known
It’s never gonna change
At least not today
While you’re still happily
Hopeless, princess
The tragic hero becomes the enemy
But that’s just how the story goes
You weren’t the only one
Who’s grieving for us
Who’s grieving for us
You’re not the only one
Who knows the story
Who tore out the pages
When you’re alone you still light up the room
All eyes on you
Uncomfortable and you can’t shake it
You can’t shake
Feeling like you’ve lost all composure
Uncertain and alone
Closed off from the lies
That guided us where we are
You still don’t know
You still don’t know who you are
And I can relate

Let’s take it from the late nights
We realized we were fine
For the first time in our lives
We always have way too much time
On our ever-shaking hands
Wish we could talk about how you
Just finished your degree
Two years late but it doesn’t matter
Cause we’re alive and we’re free
And we used to drive
On the ride home, talking shit with our friends
Dizzy from the ride back home
This night was crazy and I just need to be alone
The city’s so dead tonight
But we’ve never felt so alive
Things were alright back then
Summer’s over and I’m just getting over it
Let’s take it from the best times
And all those stupid fights
In the backyard where we cried
Where we fell in love at the first sight
That Clifton house was like our home
All the best parts about this town
Are buried with our friends and I miss them
When the world finally breaks down
We’ll stay here ‘til the end
And we used to drive
On the ride home, talking shit with our friends
Dizzy from the ride back home
This night was crazy and I just need to be alone
The city’s so dead tonight
But we’ve never felt so alive
Things were alright back then
Summer’s over and I’m just getting over it
From the cigarettes when the air got cold
Every road we wandered
Every time we felt alone
Secrets only we could keep
We took it slow
While the world was fast
Asleep
But we were wide awake
We were wide awake
We had nothing to lose
nothing to prove
nothing but you and I
And we used to drive
On the ride home, talking shit with our friends
Dizzy from the ride back home
This night was crazy and I just need to be alone
The city’s so dead tonight
But we’ve never felt so alive
Things were alright back then
Summer’s over and I’m just getting over it
And we had nothing to lose, nothing to prove, nothing to lose, nothing but you and I
