lyrics

I tried. I guess I'll wait another life time, allow you to lose your head, and I'll get a grip on mine. I'm sure we're better off alone tonight.

My arms are getting tired. You are the torch I hold for this fire. But lately
all I see is dark. You are making habits of playing head games. For what
it's worth, I broke this curse with our old flame. And maybe I prefer this
pitch black view.

I don't need your optimistic skew to tell me what makes me happy. Forget everything you think you know about me. You don't even
know yourself at all. You don't even know yourself at all. I've spent the past year waiting this out, fighting your lies. And now I'm down for the count. And as I'm throwing in this towel, I finally know I'm safe and sound.

I can't pretend that I'm alive. I'd Pull out my bones, my lungs, my spine before I'd ever return to weather the storms you put me through again. My efforts are dead.

Perfectly encapsulates the teenage experience. Finding this album while still young and in high school was the best decision I've made in quite awhile. charlesjr
