You're wrong!
Who's to say we're the only ones?
(Well if you're certain show me something that'll change my mind)
I think the truth scares all of us
(Well maybe so)
Who's to say where the sky starts?
(And if it fell would the world just fall apart?)
How do you decide between what you feel and what you know?
I've had my fill, I've nearly choked
On mirrors and smoke
(fogging up my windows)
I've fallen for that lovely hoax
But the truth is a joke
(and it's hard to invoke)
x2
I just don't think that I'm alone,
In wanting more than what I'm sold
x3
I'm not wise beyond my years,
I might even be behind a few
Because I am still unlearning the assumptions
In my point of view
Maybe you feel alone
Staring wide-eyed at those darker hues
But did you know that it's almost certain
Someone's staring back at you
I'm left standing with some good friends
Just a few tenths of a mile from where it flew over the Woodman's
I wasn't there but I believe the fanatics and their fringe theories
It's not that far-fetched to me
It's better than the alternative
That I'm the only alien kid

What then?
When the righteous hand of God comes down
And you don't understand
But doubting makes you the prodigal one
So you put blind faith in an only son,
You put your faith
What now?
When you're jaded
And your favorite faded jeans don't fit
But your therapist said you'll get over it
Oh, but God d*mn it's just one more thing added to the list
And you're drowning in your own head
"Must be demons", they said
So you pray it all away
Try to forget it
But if we're being open here
Sometimes you wish you could just end it
But you can't cuz what if you don't go to heaven
Or whatever
But it's not all that bad,
It's just not getting better
What then?
What now?
What if they were wrong somehow?
What now?
If you're a salesman for heaven
Tell me, tell me
Do you get commission?
I had to sever my limb
Just to escape from your grip
And I was just a kid
I was only a kid, I was only a kid
It still aches time to time
Like a phantom and I'm
Reminded of when I was his
I was only a kid, I was only a kid
I don't have to forgive you
For what you did
Send me to Hell if it exists
I'll call your bluff on the abyss
Eviscerate me
I may not be good enough
But I know I deserved better than this
Oh, you forsake me
So you pin it all away
Like butterflies stuck in a frame
And idolized a cursive name
Just to abandon your humanity
We're lying to ourselves if we say there is not a Hell
'Cause it's right here
Heaven is where there's no fear, no fear
I had to sever my limb
Just to escape from your grip
And I was just a kid
I was only a kid, I was only a kid
It still aches time to time
Like a phantom and I'm
Reminded of when I was his
I was only a kid, I was only a kid

Relax we're getting better
Collapse into my sweater
The cracks between our fingers
Keep me wide
Awake!
Don't you dare break my heart
'Cause I need you to stay
Fragile as these words my lips depart
To catch your wave
Catch your wave
your wave (your wave, your wave, your wave)
Your fate is mine
I hope that when you go I'm close behind
Follow you anywhere, my Valentine
I cut off all my hair, you didn't mind
Your just my kind of..
Weekday night in the Summer
Such a bummer our friends couldn't make it for the fire
So I guess we're stuck with each other for a while
I watch you flicker like a flame before my eyes
It feels insane
That you're mine, all mine (all mine)
So tell those other girls to suck it
'Cause they're just wasting their time
Chasing you like a fool
Chasing me
I'm awake!
Don't you dare break my heart
'Cause I need you to stay
Fragile as these words my lips depart
To catch your wave
Catch your...

Sometimes I leave it all behind
In my head, such a mess
Am I better off dead?
No, in my heart, I know it's only the start
When I look back at my heroes
who all left me to drown
It's like counting sheep, they kept their heads down
And even Jesus looked at me and frowned
(from underneath his thorny crown)
So I don't trust anyone or anything
Except the grass beneath my footfalls
And the amber eyes of my dog
x2
I'll stay outside all day
Sunburn my face
In the backyard like the good ol' days
x2
You kept me tangled up inside
A crucible for this new mind
I guess I'm grateful, but not for those hateful eyes
Unconsciously I've always known
There's so much room to grow
Maybe I'm still the same
And maybe you're the one who's changed
I think no one will take the blame
'Cause I've learned time doesn't heal a thing
So I don't trust anyone or anything
Except the grass beneath my footfalls
And the amber eyes of my dog
x2
Sometimes we leave it all behind
In our heads, it's such a mess
Are we better off dead?
No in your heart, you know it's only the start
Maybe you're still the same
And maybe I'm the one who's changed
That's the funny thing about time
It won't slow down for us to decide
(I'll stay outside all day)
(sunburn my face, like the good ol' days)
*What if that's okay?
*When there's nothing left to say
*I'm sick of old clichés
*I think we've earned the right to walk away
*And what if we're too late?
*I don't think that this can wait

I can't sleep
My tail's between my legs
Playing back all the things you said to me
Can't stop myself from remembering
We're not getting any younger
And I can't help but wonder
Whether we've grown apart
Or were ever close from the start
You're not sorry (that you stopped trying)
But I'm not giving up (so try me)
And I'm not sorry (and I'm not lying)
I'll be moving on
Is this what you wanted
You're the mess I let my heart
Get caught up in from the start
I don't know who's saving who
But I hope I played my part
x2
You said that you would never break a promise
I guess that you're not used to being honest
Instead of speaking to what we are feeling
We say words that don't have meaning
You're not sorry (that you stopped trying)
But I'm not giving up (so try me)
And I'm not sorry (and I'm not lying)
I'll be moving on
Is this what you wanted
You know I swear the least out of anyone we know
But I swear this'll be the last time you'll ever see me go
If you're hearing this, I hope you're doing well
And if you're not, here's to things getting better
You left a hole in my heart where your love used to be
And that space in my chest, that remains empty
In my memories I'm glad that I was put in this position
Some of the best times I've had were in this cold, sticky kitchen
By the way...
You said that you would never break a promise
I guess that you're not used to being honest
Instead of speaking to what we are feeling
We say words that don't have meaning
And I hope you can't sleep
I hope you don't sleep
I hope you won't sleep
When you think of me
