I was told I'd have the last word
Don't take that away from me
I'm holding on tight to my charm
Don't take that away from me
And I was told that was the final straw
I said "That's not the first time
I've had those words thrown my way"
So walk away from me and
Spen

And i remember i found out who you are
Pretending not to know was the hardest part
And back when we were younger
You'd answer all my calls
You were always close
But were you ever there at all?

Were you ever there at all?
Were you ever there at all?
Were you ever

Don't waste your time
Don't waste a minute
Believing in these wishful dreams
It never fit us well
And what at first was hard to tell
Became the sickness that directs me now

It's okay if you're awake when I come home
'Cause I need you to know
That every night I l

And I saw
Everything I needed to
And I heard
Nothing that I wanted to

And everything you said to me,
Despite my doubts,
I tried to believe
You tell me when to run away
But then you leave me all alone again

What I felt back then
Isn't true tonight
A

We're living in the airwaves
And blocking out the static
Doing anything to make us nearer
And so we begin to let go
Of anything that tries to draw
A line between where we find ourselves

Will we make it now
When the world comes crashing down
And the sky is growin

I didn't mean most
Of what I said before
So just forget that
Before it sinks to your core
I'd never want you
I'd never want you to go

I have a habit
Of opening my mouth
Before I have all
Of my facts straightened out
I'd never let you
Don't let me let

And all i wanted this to be was simple
But matters of heart never are
And all i am is just a face
An empty space that i fill up with mortal thoughts

But who are you to say that i've lost my way?
That i never change
Not so fast

The tv's on, i'm half awake
But i

I'm starting a new year with the same resolutions
And i found a new love with all the same problems
So i walk through your front door
Just like the night before
To talk about my dreams and if they have meaning

I wish i could say what i need to say
But i'm still hanging

It was simple enough to say I quit
And it was easier to claim I'm working on it
But when the empty seat that's next to me
Is filled with what I wish to be
It's hard to stick to your guns
Stick to your guns
That's what I've been told
You'll find conviction and answers<

I'm starting to catch on
To what you told me
But I shrugged and laughed it off
Turned my back on you
So forgive me if you can
For all the hell I brought to you
Before I put myself through it first

No I was never proud
Just scared to lose my hold
On everythin

Instrumental

I used to be a clean white stone
Until you saw me lying there
Stomped me into the ground
And I used to care a lot about
How the drinks affected you
Until they drowned me out

I can shake it off
And I can smile now
Because I know I laugh the last
And when you'

When the sun goes away we will hide
In the warmth of a dark summer night
In the face of what we are not ready to be
We'll sing "No, it's not our time to go"

I tried to stay
As long as I could
But moments fade
And we knew they would
And for a night
I kept eve

You said, "come meet me where the sun goes down"
You said, "come meet me at the edge of town"
And now you look just like a teenage queen
Just slow down cause we're exactly where we need to be

On a night like this, i don't want to move
We could stay right here
I just wan

Call off the guards
It's hard enough to
Get you alone as it is
Turn off the camera
And start acting natural
Let me see who you truly are

So what's the difference
Between who you are
And who you should be?
I tried my hardest
To break you out of
The sh

I want to say that i already know what to do
But i've never been through a night like this without you
I'm stuck to the ceiling but i go on living
Victim to all that i'm waiting for
For you to call, for them to hear me
For a sign i can't ignore

I try but it doesn't feel

We were caught
Dancing in the streets
While the rain put out the fires we set
The night before
And before we gave into
All the things we had avoided
I watched my inhibitions walk away

I could get used to this
Acting without thinking
Knowing that it's wrong t
