Lately I've been staying up past 1:30 listening to Dashboard Confessional.
Every song's so slow.
It reminds me of you and the way we used to be.
You tell me to go to sleep.
"Dear, aren't you tired?"
I said "Yeah, I really am but I'd rather stay here with you."
But what do you care?
You shrug me off your shoulders.
It's not like I matter.
It's not like I have feelings.
Lately I've been staying up past 1:30 listening to Dashboard Confessional.
Every song's so slow.
It reminds me of you and the way we used to be.
Lately, I've been contemplating my future.
I wonder who'll love me.
I wonder who'll break me apart like you did and do.
And I ask myself:
Is it really worth it?
Is she still worth it?
Yeah, she's still worth it.
After all she's put me through...
Yeah, she's still worth it.
Lately I've been staying up past 1:30 listening to Dashboard Confessional.
Every song's so slow.
It reminds me of you and the way we used to be
And how you once loved me.
...When you loved me.
When did you love me?
Lately I've been staying up past 1:30 listening to Dashboard Confessional and crying my fucking eyes out.
So now you know.
Lately I've been staying up all night.
I can never sleep.
I'm scared I'll dream of you.
Tonight I'm sure I'll stay up past 1:30 listening to the same old songs.
Every one's slow and sad.
It reminds me of you and the way we used to be.

The last few weeks you've been taking me for granted.
I've let you and I've liked it.
Now you've gone too far.
When I say I love you.
You just say "Yeah? Ok. Alright."
You're a fucking liar.
Don't be so sure that our love can't expire.
Let go of my hand.
You don't love me anymore.
Don't you try to say sorry.
It's not gonna work.
I'm not coming back to you.
I'm being drawn into temptations
Yeah, you've got a pretty face, but you're heart that's another story.
Paper, scissors, bloody broken heart hanging from a nail on the wall.
You kept a promise.
You kept a secret: I never loved you.
You're a fucking liar.
Don't be so sure that our love can't expire.
Let go of my hand and don't love me anymore.
I'm forgetting you.

In the reflection of the window as it rained I traced outline of your face.
It wiped away.
I wondered why I couldn't be one of those drops.
Even though I know how hard they fall when I dream of a February verse.
In the reflection of the lake fighting off the breeze I let the tide pull me in and just laid there.
I wondered how surface tension could still hold me up.
Even though I know how heavy my heart can be when I dream
Of just floating away from short days and longer nights away.
I lift this worn face towards the sky, embraced.

Never Said

I never meant to lie to you.
I never meant to break your heart.
I know exactly how that feels.
I never meant to be afraid.
I never meant to make you cry.
Sometimes I don't understand why I do what I do.
I regret most the things I said.
But I never said I'm sorry.
I'm sorry but I know that's not enough.
I never meant to be so cold.
I never meant to be what I'm better than.
I know I could be a better friend.
I never meant to keep my voice low.
I never meant to hide my feelings like a photograph.
So I understand why you think what you do.
I regret most the things I said.
But I never said I'm sorry.
I'm sorry but I know that's not enough.
If I could go back in time and stop myself I would.
I regret most the things I said.
But I never said..
I'm sorry best friends drift away.
Lovers lost forever in a daze.
There's one thing I never thought I'd say:
"I'm sorry I let us drift away."
My love will never fade from me.
My eyes close dreaming of the day.
I regret most the things I said.
But I never said I'm sorry.
So I'm sorry.

Walk towards me and let your whispers linger
Speaking soft of love and fear of heartache.
I swore once that I'd never let you down.
Hold onto me and we'll escape from this prison that held us captive for too long.
Sweetie, I'm here with you now to keep my promises to keep you safe.
No one will ever change my mind.
It's you I'll always stay behind.
I made a wish while admiring the sky
For someone to tear me from this lonely life.
Across states you wished the same thing.
I never thought we'd be something but I always wanted us to be.
Sweetie, I'm here with you now to keep my promises to keep you safe.
No one will ever change my mind.
It's you I'll always stay behind.
I look at you and I know.
You're the angel that fixed my heart.
I look at you and I know.
You're the one that caught my flailing star.
Sweetie, I'm here with you now to keep my promises to keep you safe.
No one will ever change my mind.
It's you I'll always stay behind.
You're so far away
But you can feel my breath on your neck.
This distance kills but it's still worth it.
You're so far away
But I can feel your hands on my chest.
This distance kills but it's still worth it.
This distance kills but you're still worth it.
