you don’t like the lies the mirror whispers in your ear but i know better i see you for who you are strip away that macho bullshit you know i can see right through it there’s a secret sweetness in your heart I’d fly halfway round the world if you said you need me to there’s no rush, we’re in no hurry i’ll wait with you for the sun in the morning when you miss me don’t forget it’s just for fun kiss me like this is the last time memorize the way I sleep don’t be afraid to give away what you thought you had to keep Let me into your mind, darling you’ll be just fine Ignore what you think you must do If we just work out the kink in the way that you think Then the world will be open to you Trust me I’ve been there before I will not lead you astray there’s no rush, we’re in no hurry i’ll wait with you for the sun in the morning when you miss me don’t forget it’s just for fun kiss me like this is the last time memorize the way I sleep don’t be afraid to give away what you thought you had to keep don’t be afraid to give away what you thought you had to keep

this isn’t how i thought that it would end the star aren’t going out but they say they miss their friend pick apart the words you left for me i nearly inked them into my skin but if we die we can be born again take what you're given hold out your hand we will do better this time we will love things without breaking them without breaking them little bird climb out of the nest I live where the sun sets, turn your eyes west say that you know who love you best but it wasn’t me and it could never be we all have to learn to love our self take what you're given hold out your hand we will do better this time we will love things without breaking them without breaking them My god you are so lovely please don’t stop loving me My god you are so lovely please don’t stop loving me take what you're given hold out your hand we will do better this time we will love things without breaking them without breaking them

i am climbing through the kitchen window i left me keys on her bed again and i’d like to remain horizontal until this evening come to an end but it seems unlikely that that will happen so i’ll muster up the energy to bathe myself instead No I don’t mind being alone that’s the only time i feel at home No I don’t mind being alone Cos I think I do better on my own go on, roll another joint now i’ll watch the way her fingers move She are so beautiful in my underwear on a thursday afternoon i am the sun and she are my lovely moon together we shine so brightly it illuminates my room No I don’t mind being with you that’s the only i ever want to do No I don’t mind being with you Cos I think you feel the same way too I feel so heavy-handed could you hold onto one for me zip our fingers tight together it feels just like being free can i take your name i wanna marry you and i will walk down the aisle and you’ll cry when i say i do No I don’t mind forever that's the only time that i’ve got No I don’t mind forever because i love you a lot, a lot, a lot

you fell for girl with an expiration date while i sat off to the side cause you throughout i would wait but it took you too long, you’ve woken up to find i’m gone I remember the first day, smoking in the woods after work I tried not to get too close, the end was bound to hurt We never learn from our mistakes, until it’s already too late And I misunderstood because I was too far gone To pay attention to the truth But I hope you can find some way to forgive me Because I’m trying to do the same for you And I will change your name is in my cell phone again and we will drag out bodies back into bing just friends you won’t apologize for being gone i won’t apologize for being wrong We’ll pretend the last 8 months never happened because we cannot turn back time and one day i’ll tell the truth about how i’m doing but for now, i’ll say i’m fine i feel safer when i lie And I misunderstood because I was too far gone To pay attention to the truth But I hope you can find some way to forgive me Because I’m trying to do the same for you And the sun will burn off the haze, and we will get back to brighter days, and I will Love you in all the right ways, and you will Say that you feel the same, you feel the same (x2) And I misunderstood because I was too far gone To pay attention to the truth But I hope you can find some way to forgive me Because I’m trying to do the same for you

i still love myself i am my own best friend but i cannot believe some of the shit that i've done should have given a fuck when i still had the chance but i was busy having fun i keep breaking out of the boxes i put myself into to keep myself safe and as the wood is splintering i find myself thinking maybe this wasn't a mistake the saboteur thought this phase was over they cannot go under they must go through yeah this shit was supposed to go away on it’s own because i really wanted it to Let me lie to you say i’ll clean my room you’ll find me on the floor writing this song these priorities are a little fucked up but the instincts are never wrong i swear more now than i ever did as a kid more revealing than surprising to tell the truth my mom tried to protect she tried not to infect but i still caught the sad as a youth i keep breaking out of the boxes i put myself into to keep myself safe and as the wood is splintering i find myself thinking maybe this wasn't a mistake the saboteur thought this phase was over they cannot go under they must go through yeah this shit was supposed to go away on it’s own because i really wanted it to Let me lie to you say i’ll clean my room you’ll find me on the floor writing this song these priorities are a little fucked up but the instincts are never wrong (x2)
