There's a fire in our eyes And it's keeping us alive The room keeps spinning The room keeps spinning And we've lost all feeling We've lost all feeling now And i thought i had something wrong But it was you all along We kept trying oh We kept trying But we never should have Ever started to lying to Ourselves We could live We could die But it's just a matter of time Till we quit Living a lie Where we're going We don't know An open road But no where to go But I think we're better Off being alone We could take everything and run I know we could out run everyone And if we know what we could be Why shouldn't we set ourselves free And i know it's wrong, but it feels so right So just stick around for one more night You're just a temporary bliss You're like a poison on my lips I think we're better Think we're better off

I saw this coming from miles away But something told me that i needed to stay Got all dressed up just to take you out It turns out that lying is what you're about And i thought you'd changed Now i'll never look at you the same way You can stay with him Cause i've been sleeping with the lights on Waiting for your call home, but i'm Sick of this Cause i'd rather live without you and be alone A few drinks and one liners just to take you home There's 3 words that i can't say just to get you alone And i thought you'd changed Now i'll never look at you the same way You can stay with him Cause i've been sleeping with the lights on Waiting for your call home, but i'm Sick of this Cause i'd rather live without you and be alone Woah

I Need You 03:21
She wanted all she could get But she couldn't make the promises She said she'd live up to her father She said she's headed down south To the country, pure America She's had enough of Midwest nonsense She could be everything to me She could be everything I need I need you And everything that you do While everybody's getting Down, down, down You make me wanna Stick around, round, round My head’s spinning round I want a little bit more Let's make this better than before My head’s spinning round I couldn't make her stay and She said she'd write on the weekends I've never gotten just one letter Thank god I'm not sentimental And if there's one thing I'm sure of I could do this forever I just can’t seem To feel anything When I’m around her Wish she was all mine She’s got me up all night Just to find her I found her

Left Out 03:43
Step down this time You're not allowed around here anymore You're not a soldier in this war You're just a fighter waiting for You're turn to strike And i heard you're all talk and nothing else You probably think so high of yourself You lie so much there's nothing left to sell This time is where it ends You're running out of lies So baby spill your guts Come on now what you got Just give it up Give it up And you're the talk of this town Isn't that what you wanted? I'm sick of all these games I can't just play pretend And now it's obvious That you're caving in Caving in And no one liked you anyways But now You're the one left out Get to the point You make sick with every word you say Your stories just a meaningless cliché Thank god no one believes it anyway And i heard you're talking shit about me to someone else It's funny cause you've got nothing to tell You're only ever thinking of yourself

I know we all remember this place We would forget about the world for one whole day Am i the only one who's changed Or is everyone else just not the same I thought i had it all figured out I cover up my scars with lies and doubts We swore we'd always try and stick around And now It's hard to say goodbye without breaking down This is our story Time won't stop Life goes on We make the most of each moment till the next one comes Seasons change New friends become old We live and we die just for our story to be told This old town's turned to grey And all of us still here are just fading away And i wish that we could stay But nothing ever lasts So it's time for us to say This is our story Time won't stop Life goes on We make the most of each moment till the next one comes Seasons change New friends become old We live and we die just for our story to be told There comes a day When we fall When there's nothing left to say We fall

Summer Sweat 04:04
Summer sweat in June You washed away all of the second guessings The undertow consumes Everything we kept under the covers Now Now All i ever wanted was for you to be my home You were something stable I never even wanted for us to get this old We'll stay young forever Promise you won't leave And i won't say anything All i ever wanted was for you to be my home Yeah August came too soon We walked the line too long Just like a tightrope And no one ever knew The promises we made Under the covers Now Now We don't bleed the same blood do we Cause promises mean something to me Stop telling me the same old story Now
7.
Not everyone gets a second chance In life But when you do you've gotta make it last Keep it alive I know everyone's a critic and everyone's a saint But we'll make history Cause Its what we're dreaming of Just don't go If only for the night you're staying It's still better than being alone You're so cold You had your chance so quit complaining You thought you'd be better off alone In a missed reality I never knew that i could live On my own But i've never been happier Now that you're Gone Because nothing ever worked and We never would agree On almost anything Cause that's what you meant to me We never could agree On anything, but this is what we need You were never meant for me Neither you or i could see What eventually we'd be So far from missed reality
8.
Who would've guessed It's never the lesser of two evils I guess that it's time for me to go And promise you things I never could afford And every time i did you just ask me for more I swear i tried my best That doesn't mean that it worked When the walls came down you always swore it didn't hurt But never the less I hope you're doing alright A quarter past 3, i still with you were mine I hope you know i'm not doing too fine Everyone says i'm out of my mind For not letting go Of a sliver of hope I've never been one to live and let die I only pray you'll never leave me behind I'm not letting go Just give me something to hold Honestly i I should've seen this coming I knew at first sight i'd never wanna let you go But as time slipped away we went our seperates ways I guess promises don't mean a thing anymore I always loved you more Even times when it hurt And when you fell out love i didn't know what was worse That you were kissing his lips Like you didn't even care About the boy you left at home who still wishes you were
9.
You're 18 And crazy You get the boys on their knees He's bad news You're confused And you've had enough Of guys like these He's obsessed You know that He plays along so carefully When you leave then He resets It's all a game now can't you see You want him gone Breakthroughs And tattoos To make him try to forget you He'll try but It's no use He's knows he'll never forget you He's reckless You're restless He likes the chase But you don't see He's in love And you've caught up He won't come down that easily He's in love But you've caught up

Letting Go 05:01
I've been wasting my whole life Skipping stones and waiting for my time to come Always there on the sidelines I always knew i wanted to be someone But every time i got closer to what I had dreamed I was too scared to take the leap We're moving on And letting go To everything that we know We're saying goodbye But not for long It's not the end of the road Yet I've been down to the bottom You gotta get real high to know when you've been low I keep my eyes on tomorrow Cause the truth is You never know what's to come But i know one thing That's always been true It's that i'm a fool For not taking the leap Now what should i do I just need a little more time A little more confidence in me I just need a little more time I need some room to breathe
