lyrics

A single rough hand has been formed from climbing broken walls half fold, I always seem to befriend the most loneliest kind
There is a sadness in their eyes,
It holds true, while insidious
Disguised with a rebel heart,
Disguised from the start.

Never aiming for the throne
Just happy with an overlooked passion
A retrospective defeat held at the hands of no one else
Almost always giving in but never knowing what comes next
Saying that we'll make it far but how do we know this isn't already our best?

I'll yell at you until I make myself feel better
But better doesn't mean much when you're gone and I'm alone
I'm waking up and feeling sick, my hair's thinned out your voice is like a train coming through an empty tunnel, yet it's gone in an instant
"I'll save my money" I say, and I'll take a trip to japan
But it's been 6 months and I'm emptier than ever, I pushed hope to the edge because I thought I was oh so right
And even if I move away to France, it won't be the answer to the riddle only time can solve the distance

Do you remember the nights where I'd empty the glass in my lungs?
(I sure do)
Do you still hear the fights we never even had, I said I'd never ever let go
When I say never, when I say never, I won't lie to your face
Nothing's forever, it's an endless debate, why attack when we can merely wait?

It's a constant suffocation of miscommunication
And I can feel it slowing me down, I can't feel enough to make a sound.

AND NOW I'm living and I'm learning, to find a cure for this loneliness
Trying to find a way, to rid the ghosts from this frozen home.
