When It Came to You

It was late afternoon on a Saturday in June
When you came for your things
You were ready to go
I was out on the roof we were talkin' shit and drinkin
Rollin' and a-reachin' for something to hold
I don't regret a single word I said to you
The ideals you said you had were a danger to
Everyone you said that you wanted to help
But you couldn't even help when it came to you
I don't regret a single word I said to you
You were actin' out the scene that you wanted to
A woman in her thirties cryin' like a baby
Unwilling to admit there's a world where she could be wrong
It was easy to forget you unremarkable and dim
And I didn't need that energy tryin' to dull my shine
I didn't need that energy tryin' to dull my shine
I hope you like New Jersey it's probably where you'll die

A Lie We Tell Ourselves
02:37

Love is just a lie we tell ourselves
because we're all afraid of dying
without a friend by our side
to walk us to another life
You have just one regret when you're layin' down your burdens
yeah, it's true you didn't live your life the way I think you should've done it
I hope next time around you have the courage to stand up and fight
when danger comes to town you won't turn around and run
And when you go did you leave behind a life worth living?
Or did you waste your time takin' what others were giving?
And I know I wouldn't walk away from fire 'cause my lord
I'm not afraid of dyin'
At your funeral what will your friends and family say about you?
You were loved and comfortable, but you couldn't just be brave?
Who was the one that pulled the plug?
Did you drift away all on your own into oblivion to be forgotten?
And when you go did you leave behind a life worth living?
Or did you waste your time takin' what others were giving?
And I know I wouldn't walk away from fire 'cause my lord
I'm not afraid of dyin'
Love is just a lie we tell ourselves, oh but I'm not afraid of dying'

Complacency
It's easy to let in
When the bills are paid and the routines have a hold on everything
The challenge is
Giving everything I have
To keeping everyone together when my world falls down around me
I have no reason not to be happy
I'm a well-adjusted kid without a history
Well I wonder when my world will spin
Or if I'm shut out for good?
How do I begin to find the words?
Oh, oh, oh, complacency
Did I get everything I wanted?
Did I let one heartbreak take my life, my drive, all the things I started?
I have no reason not to be happy
I hate that I've given up on finding something that's right for me
Well I wonder when my world will spin
Or if I'll always be alone?
How do I work this out on my own?
So what's my motivation when our future looks so bleak?
Why should I try and fake it when no one remembers me?
Will this hollow, empty feeling be what's in my guts for good?
How do I begin to find the words
To tell you what I'm searching for
To breath the air into my lungs
To take you for the ride I'm on
To reach into the sunlight
And take what I deserve?

Wasted

You said you had it figured out
You said "it's just a gap year"
You said you had a plan for it all
You said you wanted to save
But I remember the look in your eye
When you'd given up your chance to run
I never said I would wait around for you
That I'd stick around for you forever
While you get your shit together
I never said I would wait around for you
That I'd stick around for you
Why would I?
Why should I?
What was the story of our old friend?
Sometimes I think of how I could've stayed with him
Back in the places we grew up
But adventure was calling my name
My life could never be as tame as everyone I left behind
Struggling could never be as sad as standing still
Stability's out the window
Freedom's calling
I never said I would wait around for you
That I'd stick around for you forever
While you get your shit together
I never said I would wait around for you
That I'd stick around for you
Why would I?
Why should I?
Where were you when I was calling?
Wasn't it you that was falling
Down into the dark?
Did you ever need me at all?
I am the one that got away
I am the one
I am the one who could escape
I am the only one

Wrong About You
02:12

I can't believe you have the nerve to disagree, c'mon
I thought this joke was over months ago
I can believe that you will take this to your grave
You will not live long enough to see the consequence
I knew you were different
I thought you had grown since then
I gave you the space to find your footing
I'll admit when I was wrong
Oh, I was wrong
I was never sure I could trust someone to love me
You weren't there, no, you never were
It was embarrassing, it was disappointing
I didn't think that you would hurt someone you love like this
It wasn't just a trespass
You betrayed us, there's no coming back
I thought you were reflecting
You'd see the world around us had changed
I wanted to believe that you believed in me too
Well, I was wrong
The money didn't change you
It's the way you've always been
You never could've loved me
You were just just pulling at the pin
I hoped, I prayed, I dreamed that you would come around and see
Well, I was wrong

Your Girlfriend Sucks
02:13

Hello?
It was me, I've been looking for you
I've been trying to get ahold of you all day
I just wanted to make sure that you're ok
Because I haven't seen you in a while
And I know you're going through it always
And I know the one you have isn't the one who will keep you safe
She's too caught up in herself to see your pain
I'm only telling you this 'cause I love you
And your happiness is at stake
And I promised I'd let you know
If the love she had seems fake
I didn't wanna text you in case she took your phone again in a rage
Hello?
It was me, I've been looking for you
And I know you're mad I said all this today
I just want you to be happy, okay?

Don't Come Around

Should've left me in May
When you told your friends you had about as much as you could take
Would've saved yourself
A lot of blood, a lot of heartache
Would've saved yourself
At least one mistake
Don't come around
You're not welcome here
I didn't ask you to follow me
You came on your own, you should leave that way
I wish you the worst and most of all
I hope the thrill of living is a memory that fades
I don't mind
That you came along for the ride
Let's not pretend we had something and
I won't lie
When I say you nearly wrecked my life
The only good things I had going on
I hated you and all you'd done
When I think about my future
I know I'd rather be alone
Than waste time waiting around on a change
That's never gonna come
So don't come around
You're not welcome here
The difference between us
It isn't just the distance
It's the quality of livin'
I didn't ask you to stay
