Alone As Well As Gone

Breathe in. Breathe out.
You're not alone but I'm alone tonight.
I wish this all would end right now so I might smile again.
Don't say a word. I can read your mind.
It's ok for you to leave.
Rip my heart out of my chest.
Leave a blood stain on the ground for others to see.
For the next girl to do the same to me.
Just say you're sorry and move on then leave me alone.
I'll give you this song.
I'm not like them. I'm not like him.
I'm a failure in everyone's eyes.
Is there a reason to live? I guess it's part of being a kid.
No wonder we all wish we were grown up.
(I'm alone as well as gone.)
The question I'll always ask: why couldn't we just last?
I guess even the most blue skies must turn gray.
Rip my heart out of my chest.
Leave a blood stain on the ground for others to see.
For the next girl to do the same to me.
Just say you're sorry and move on then leave me alone.
I'll give you this song.

Paper Airplanes
03:19
|
|

I tried so hard to fit in.
I never did.
It hurts me so to just let go.
So I never will.
The flight lasts so long.
It never ends.
With a voice so low just let go.
I never speak. I never sleep.
Paper airplanes are never the same
After they're flown once in the air.
It's always the same.
They always remain helpless and alone again.
Head first into the ground never hurt like your hate.
It never ends. It never begins until I see your face.
Paper airplanes are never the same
After they're flown once in the air.
It's always the same.
They always remain helpless and alone again.
Paper airplanes are never the same
After they're flown once in the air.
It crashes the same.
They always remain helpless and alone again.

Silence

Silence calls out now.
You left our memories in the dust to rot.
A flower bloomed today
But it was deemed useless and thrown away.
It's been here all along.
It's the reason that I wrote this song.
Even still the night goes on.
Well here it is again;
That familiar lonely feeling when you know it's all going to end.
If not right now then tomorrow.
Can't you hear me when I say it's over?
Won't you whisper the truth in my ear?
Cause we both know that it's over.
I couldn't have loved you anyway.
I'm sick of this pain.
I'm so sick of screaming your name.
I'll leave you alone.
I won't even ask for a ride home.
Not right now. Not forever.
Can't you hear me when I say it's over?
Won't you whisper the truth in my ear?
Cause we both know that it's over.
I couldn't have loved you anyway.
Just give me silence and I can end this all right now.
Or will the sun rise tomorrow just to bring me down again?

Forever
05:01
|
|
||
|
You're so close to me yet you're so far away.
You're everywhere I am and every single thing I want to be.
Today I was staring up at the clouds and I swear I saw your face brushing against mine.
When I look out my window and stare at the stars,
I dream of you being with me I'm too afraid to tell you.
You're too shy to ask me but I love you so much that I can't breathe.
If I ask you to take my hand what would you say?
I want you to be with me forever.
If you left tomorrow without taking me I'd cry forever internally.
I know you know that I think of you this way.
I love you more than life itself. I want you to stay.
If I ask you to take my hand what would you say?
I want you to be with me forever.
If I ask you to take my hand what would you say?
"I'm sorry but I can't stay forever."

I know those thing you say will make my every day.
We'll be together for tonight.
I hope you'll stay close to me.
You're my everything.
I'll fall in love with you again and again.
If I could tell you one more thing
I'd tell you that I love you and I want to hold you.
I'll kiss you all over.
We'll be together and I'll be so twitterpated.
I'll hold you hand and sing you every song I wrote for you.
I'd do you hair until you fall asleep on my lap.
You'll sing right back to me, "you're my everything."
I'll sign our names upon this moon tonight.
If I could tell you one more thing.
I'd tell you that I love you and I want to hold you.
I'll kiss you all over.
We'll be together forever.
I'll love you until the day I die.
I'll whisper words you wanna hear.
I love you so much, baby.
You're my perfect lady.
I'm so lost in this dream of you and me.

A Perfect Day
03:30
|
|
||
|
Searching for the right words to say never came so easily on this so a perfect day.
We'll find a way to make our love last as it has before,
Like rolling around along floor
Or saying words I have before.
I love you.
On this perfect day we'll sing our favorite songs all day long.
The wind blows a bunch of leaves up in the air.
They circle us like a heart and mess up my hair.
I mess up yours.
We watch scary movies,
I'll hold onto you.
You'll hold onto me.
We'll hold onto our love.
I'll whisper in your ear one more time.
On this perfect day we'll take a walk in the park,
We'll hold hands and remember the past.
Other couples will watch jealously as I hold you close to me.
Searching for the right words to say never came so easily on this so a perfect day with you.

We will fly that kite soon and it will be sunny. I promise.
I promise I'll keep you warm at night.
I love you and all I want to do is hold you in my arms.
I love you and all I want to do is be with you right now.
I’m coming back and you better be alone.
I’m coming back for you and you better be alone.
I love you and all I want to do is hold you in my arms.
I love you and all I want to do is be with you right now.
What a pathetic day until I'm with you.
What a perfect way to spend my life in your arms.
I love you and all I want to do is hold you in my arms
To pass the time and believe everything's ok.

What?
02:39
|
|
||
|
I'm sitting in my living room
Trying to get the nerve to pick up the phone and call you to say hello.
I'll tell what you are to me and say,
"without you I'm nothing and I want to be your boyfriend."
What about that other guy?
What if you say no?
Then I might die.
Well if you say yes I will too.
You mean this much to me.
You taught me how to count to three.
I can't live without you.
I didn't call yesterday but today's a brand new day
And my shirt says I am cool.
With my shoes wearing thin I hope this soon all will end.
What's your number again?
What about that other guy?
What if you say no?
Then I might die.
Well if you say yes I will too.
You mean this much to me.
You taught me how to count to three.
I can't live without you.
I'm looking through the past to find out if we could last.
I know I love you and I can count on you.
You can count on me to believe in you.
When I ask you out today just to see what you will say.
I hope you say yes. I really do.
Today's a new day.
The streets are filled with rain and still all I want is you.

It's 3:47 when I can't wake up.
My nights have consumed me but my eyes seem wide awake.
A second never passes if the clock never ticks.
Stuck in time I drift away.
I gaze upon these dials.
I wait for them to move forward but they never do.
I'm seemingly trapped inside this moment forever.
It seems like a bad dream that never stops haunting me to sleep.
I bargain off my bed.
I'll roll through covers and sheets
Just to have one more night full of sleep.
I'm waiting through my vacant house
While I'm singing myself a dream to sleep.

This boy feels so alone and broken up.
A smile seems so far away.
I'd give away my breath to see you again.
Instead I'll draw a silhouette of you.
September seems so lonely this year.
She is the sky and the wind.
To feel her cheek against my face is to live.
Some static goes through the air and kills a fly.
Somehow I feel like I have too died.
September seems so lonely this year.

Curl Up and Die
04:04
|
|
||
|
I don't know what to do now that I've lost you.
I can't hardly breathe.
I won't get any sleep.
I'll curl up and die tonight if you let go.
Feeling like this I guess you'll never know.
I use to sing songs that make me smile
Now all they do is make me cry.
I use to love the blue of your eyes but now it's turning black.
I remember holding hands in the sun but now you're gone.
All I want to do is forget you right now.
Is this a mess or just another test?
Don't break my heart.
I've tried so hard to make you happy.
So what have you done to me?
At least while feeling this I'll never miss...
I use to sing songs that make me smile
Now all they do is make me cry.
I use to love the blue of your eyes but now it's turning black.
I remember holding hands in the sun but now you're gone.
All I want to do is forget you right now.
I'll drop to my knees and wish upon a falling star.
I've written songs for you; forgiven you for running far.
I could live through these nights where our love has died.
But I'm through with them and through with you.

Failure By the Dozen
03:54
|
|

Don't worry about me while you sit there
And watch blood flow from my wrist.
Never have I felt or never have you seen
A heart crumble in two.
I'll watch the sunset tonight.
As I lose my life a star falls from the sky.
I'll mumble my last words as you hold your breath;
Failure by the dozen.
Never has the world been so absorbed
From the loss of a last breath.
I never could believe that leaves fall from trees
As I'm seeing red.
I'll watch the sunset tonight.
As I lose my life a star falls from the sky.
I'll mumble my last words as you hold your breath;
Failure by the dozen.
All those things that you said every time I bled.
You could have left instead.
But when I couldn't see
You were there for me to be another star that's falling down.
I'll watch the sunset tonight.
As I lose my life a star falls from the sky.
I'll mumble my last words as you hold your breath;
Failure by the dozen.

The Moon is Expensive
04:00

The moon is expensive.
Our love's not replenished.
Will you cry tonight alone again with a knife at your wrist?
I'll cry for you as well.
I know this is fucking hell.
I'll dream again tonight about you.
The sweetest of dreams.
You take pills and pretend it's alright.
I write "I just want to forget tonight."
I'll piss away my life or bleed to death thinking of you.
Now I forget just why I live or why I even try to breathe.
I'll write it out.
I'll read it over then use the note to burn down your house.
The moon is expensive.
Goodbyes aren't replenished.
I'll drive off this fucking highway because I can't take it.
Give or take a few good lines this song is about our life.
And how we washed away like a butterfly on a rainy day.
Well I don't care that you promised me that you'd go away.
You're never coming back again.
So take my heart away with you I don't need it anymore anyway.

Black Secret

That night when I said "I love you more than anything"
Not a word came out of your mouth.
An awkward silence arose from the sky and ripped us apart.
I tried wishing upon a glowing star,
But that star seemed to crash into earth and stop my heart and stop time itself.
It seems the world just stopped spinning and threw me off it's axis into space.
I'll suffocate eternally, internally.
I hear every single persons voice in my head all at once.
Yours is the softest but the one that hurts the most.
Yet you said nothing at all.
It feels like my ears are about to shatter from the inside and bleed out tears.
With my eyes closed I'll stretch out my hands
And with my last breath I'll beg you.
No, I'll ask you "just don't let me go."
It wasn't so much the lack of air.
It was how you shattered my heart
Like a flowered vase dropped from the tallest skyscraper.
But it doesn't ever hit the ground.
Every day you watch me break apart.
You stand there laughing.
But inside you must be hurting.
You have to be.
What if I fell into the sea so softly and preciously?
If somehow I wasn't destroyed on impact I couldn't face myself.
I couldn't face the world without you here.
I can't let go so you can't let go.

Stay on Rewind
03:44
|
|

|
These shattered dreams I have of you are wearing thin.
So is the hope that tomorrow will be better.
The last time I heard your voice you were shivering with hate.
I don't think I'll ever see you again.
I dream tonight the sweetest dream that could be had of you.
I wish that you would be happy
But I wish I wouldn't be alone.
How can fresh air be so hard to breathe in?
These cold nights alone take their toll.
I'm starting to feel like no one really cares at all.
Maybe I'm right.
I dream tonight the sweetest dream that could be had of you.
Everyone always says that tomorrow will be alright.
But I look around this empty room and notice that everything isn't ok.

Against Better Judgement
05:11
|
|

If I sailed this letter out to sea would it reach the shore?
Would you pick it up and read it aloud or just ignore?
Would you think I'm wrong if I sang a song for you tonight?
Could you stand the thought of me being right for once?
Whoever knew.
You said that I could never be what you wanted me to be.
Then why wouldn't you let go of my sleeve?
Like a ghost from hell. Like a prison cell. Like a sun that burning up.
Like when every day it feels like the world's about to end and nothing goes right.
Against better judgement.
You're against all that's right.
Against better judgement.
This has to end tonight, you swear.
I'll squeeze my bear and I pull my hair and I scream until I drop a lung.
I let my tears fall onto you as I hit the desk.
I'll whisper "I'll miss you"
I'll whisper "I need you with" with my eyes closed tight.
Will I ever feel right again?
Against better judgement.
You're against all that's right.
Against better judgement.
This has to end tonight, you swear.
I don't understand.
I'll never understand why this doesn't feel right for you.
I don't understand.
I'll never understand why leaving would feel right to do.
I don't understand.
I'll never understand why I fell in love with you, you swear.
Stay on rewind so I can stay in your mind.
