i'm trying my best not to expect her to start drawing figure eights on my back.
so i'm trying my best, cause it's best, but my mind always wanders to you
your voice still lingers
drew constellations with your tiny fingers
your voice still lingers
just far more quietly now
(take your tiny hands and lay them on me)
but i know my best is only second best
you're making promises and taking them back
you got time, no time for me
I'm trying hard to stay on my feet
days are long
trying hard
holding on to the better part
days are long
trying hard
not holding on to the bitter part

i don't feel much
i don't feel much when we touch
it's fine, give it time
we can take some time
maybe spend some nights apart
cause you're up early for work
i'm up late reading for class
i'm playing bar shows
you're in la with your friends
i feel guilty in the morning
i try my best to ignore the feeling
i know my mood swings
i know my moods are confusing
it's fine, give it time
we can take some time
maybe spend some nights apart
it's fine, give it time
we can take some time
maybe spend some nights alone
there's something wrong with me
i can't love you equally
there's something wrong with me
i don't feel much of anything

breathe me in
i won't be back for a long time
kiss the concrete
this was your high school dream
"good men don't lie"
you'd be surprised.
"good men don't lie"
well i'll be damned.
how'd you let this happen?
let it go
took this for a spin,
i can't do it again.
i'll be damned if i tell you now
i'll be damned if i don't
i'd be damned to let this go
i'd be damned to make this house a home
i'll be damned - you know what you did
i'll be damned - you know that you meant it
i'll be damned - you know what you did
i'll be damned - you have to pay for it

Out Of Love

you stumbled drunk in kitchen and found your mother's pills
i read about you in the paper, all about how you'd fallen ill
left for school in the city,
you wanted something new
sleep would come and go
and i know you dreamt of what he'd done to you
you wish you could drown in the bathtub
would be nice to die in peace
wish you had the courage to go,
my love I know it's not easy to leave
forget me nots were not enough
you fell out of love
tried your best to remember
what it felt like to live
back when things seemed to matter
tried and loved and thought you meant it
now you're stuck in your bell jar
trying hard not to breathe
back at home for the summer, you haven't slept in weeks
fix your head
it's been a long year.
fix your head
you'll wind up dead.
