Man Overboard

Level-minded, I'm blinded by the promise of happiness if I can find it. "Fuck. Hold on." Maybe I have no heart 'cause all I can remember was feeling so lost. You don't know how bad I wanna tell you everything, tell you everything. Level minded, I'm blinded...

Wait! Stop! I'm not ready. She left me dead in the van. My stomach feels like it's burning. I tried to write but I can't. So now I lay with the yearning to know anyone but any of you. If you only knew the amount of thought that I put into you. And I can't st...

It’s true, I’ll remember this night as when you finally cut me down And I’ll remember this night as so avoidable I’ll remember this night like I should have tried harder But I’ll remember this night, as a revolution it’s liberation, communication’s gone...

Somedays I wake up, I don't have a plan I hear what they're sayin', I don't understand.. I know you're out there.. I can't hear you call.. I wish I never met you, I can't forget about you at all If I could do anything right now, I would run.. I'll come back a...

I know you're sound asleep right now and you can't hear but I'm gonna explain everything. and turn this into every dream your pretty little head could ever come up with. I am drunk with the thought of sharing these blankets right now. I think were old enough...

I know I cried wolf, I didn’t think I had Things get darker, and end up sad I don’t think it’s grown old, I don’t think its so bad Please just tell me – I’m all you have Tell me something, I’ll tell you anything You need to know, like I said before If y...

Well I don't know how you do this When the path were on is misleading us home Well I don't know what to do kid The sun is out and I feel Alive like I haven't in a long time Looking back's getting me down It's harder to trudge on then it used to be for us I'm...

I stare out of my window And I look at my neighbors And take notes on being normal How to wave and be nice Or talk to a child Or offer a hand or actually smile Maybe I'll learn how to talk to people Maybe I'll learn how to laugh Maybe I'll end up just like my...

I said to her: "I swear it happened again today. I swear I thought I saw you." "Well it must be a sign" she replied Well even if it was you I'd never believe Just keep that reminder I paid with him taking you Made one in glue... It was a contract You said yo...

I packed my bags and looked to the west, Kissed her picture twenty times Take some clothes and a deep breath, Go commit the perfect crime I didn’t ask for much but now it’s much too late, If she can’t help me now then there’s no time to waste I will not...

It’s cold, it’s supposed to be. The night has got a hold of me. I hurt, but enough of me. You glow, glow for all to see. This is what I do, this is who I am. At the park at four am drinking beer out of a can, wishing I could understand what it takes to be...

I've been preaching now that I've gotta change my life around. I'm sick of all the same songs. I'm sick of all the rain fall. What's left for me now, besides these fucking clouds? I blame it on my down fall. I blame it on the last call I made when I was down a...

I've been trying to escape but something keeps calling me. A feeling I can't shake the darkness has swallowed me. I can't move fast enough to ditch what has followed me, And lightning strikes everything that I touch. This is how it feels for me to be on m...

I’ve got nothing to show for these dead end dreams. My heart will ache again, it seems. I don’t know how old I am, I don’t know if I’m grown up. I feel good when I hold your hand, But when you're gone it’s not enough. (No, it's never enough) I’m busy t...

Oh, doesn’t it hurt to know the boys tell lies to get their way and the girls are left alone? Can’t you pick up the phone? Did you now want to show? The true feelings will end this game before anyone could ever know before anyone could ever know I kne...

Dear you, This has got to to be one of the last heartfelt things I can put together on a piece of paper to let you know. Fading away at a sickening rate can put things in perspective for you. You've always been the only one and I need you to know I do...

We all wait for the snow to fall And I hate this time of year because it kills us all but we Run around like kids on the loose Chasing dreams like the babies play duck, duck, goose and I Wait by the window cause she said she would call And when you finally do...

You could say one of two thing: Call me sometime or let's hang out. Or maybe I could help you out. Stop acting like you'll ever see me again, and like I don't have you figured out. I understand how it works. On paper, we are similar people. I understa...

I drove through Berlin tonight. Straight shot down the highway and through my chest. And I thought about missing you and the meaning of the word futile. I walked around this rainy college campus on a Sunday for three hours. I thought about home and how you...

I took the same route to school. I’m almost late again, even though I woke up at six AM. I’ve been dreaming of something that right now is still nothing but it could become my world once the day is through. She could become my everything or a whisper in my...

I’ll hang on to these last words The ones you whisper in my ear Before you pull yourself away from here (C'mon!) For the last time I’ll convince the sun will never rise again And it’s likely that you’ll find me Before long crawling up your driveway Begging y...

Where do I start? How do I begin to describe the way I mistake every shadow for you being here. And if I get it wrong one more time I’ll swan dive off the overpass. (Let’s just pretend you know who I am) I pretend that you’re in my car. Tracing my thoug...

Wait, is everything ok Your eyes seem to linger all day I took a beating on the way Of looking for you and it all went blank And you went home You can't help with this And I'm not fixed I'm just as dead No one knows more then me how easy this can feel And I'm...

Just like a dream.... She called me kinda late last night. Said that she knew everything and all those pretty little words came out. And just like I planned, she fell into my arms again, and I could pretend that I would lie with her forever and wait f...

When I was young I believed in Santa Clause, though I knew it was my dad. And I would hang up my stockings on Christmas, open my presents and not be glad. But though I saw my plain Father Christmas, I stood outside the department store. A gang of kids came...

Let's go home. To a place we can call our own, we can live there together, be in love forever and never have to be alone. Would you try? Or would you leave me for some other guy? I have been sitting without you just thinking about you When you wake up you wi...

A voice erupts from an open door, “I think you’re broken forever more.” I see it clear, I’m a different man We feel the sickness and I think that I’m a goner Fire flies in an open sky Where does love go when it dies? You learn to live with no innocence...

Sooner the sheets, sooner his guard will grow weak. Fall to the floor, hoping you've heard this before. I came up empty with nothing left to show, sitting here on main street, trying to find my way back home. Now i'm feeling like i owe you one. You suddenly ar...

I know my eyes have bear witness to this whole scene before. When the road ends the nightmare begins. The fighting never stops and I will never truly win. "But make it count. It’s plain to see." Sorry, but it’s not the most beautiful view from my knees. Tried...

The ends coming quick But not quick enough You say that you care But I'm calling your bluff Because I once was in love But loves fucking blind So as I swallow these pills I pray for the sunshine I could sleep all day And not sleep it off I speak all day And n...

Looks like were holding hands, who knows exactly what this all could be... All I know is that I feel fine when I pretend your mine and you lie close to me. I'm finally laying somewhere where I'm happy that I'm here, and my troubles said goodbye and the heart...

It's like they need two separate planets to make it stop. The boy who was a hero became the shame. The girl who took it all lost everything. She sent a message, she tried to talk, there was something that she needed to know. But now was not the best time, th...

Well, I guess that we are not best friends anymore, cause I don't think that I like you anymore. You're washed up, pathetic, you've lost your touch and I don't get it, but I don't wanna be your friend anymore. Go die and I'll say "what a waste." You use to be...

My mouth is firing out blanks 'cause I've got nothing left to say No tools to rebuild the bridge that fell onto the road and got in our way And all the times you never said "I love you too" Are starting to come back And I'm counting all the things that I didn'...

Am I the only one with my name like that in your phone? A relic of your past you could never quite trash, do I make you miss your home? Am I a part of you? Am I with you every day? Somewhere inside your heart or your stomach, or some dumb metaphorical...

Love Your Friends Die Laughing Well the night gets old so I’m back again. The day just started because I’m up with my old friends, the fat smoke and funny joke. Sitting like a sponge, letting everything soak. And I just got the nerve get in the cage so bit...

Always hold on for the last kiss It never gets easier It’s always like this Sat in the airport, played my SP Dinner and alone, as I waited to leave I wish I could sleep somehow right now I took the Valium her mom gave me But it didn’t do much to save me From...

I figured I'd go At the least to check in cause I just miss her grin And to show That I didn't really never wanna see you again And my heart caves in when I look at you This is so hard, this is so- And my heart caves in when I look at you... This is so hard...

He sees them both everyday now. He watched the story unfold. In the grass underneath the trees, inside a red SUV, Two silhouettes and no second guessing. “Is someone tryna to test me?” he thought to himself. “Once upon a time I was an innocent little kid And...

It all started when I saw you glow, Feelings came fast spinning out of control. Wish you were here, wish the feelings could show. How would you know, you know? The freak kid picked last for the team. Out of his league but a boy can still dream. Turns out she...

Now that you’re home, you know I want to be with you Wherever you roam, I need you and you need me too No matter how far, I’m saying your name every day And finding out that this place is now just like a dream I had Let it go back to the way it was again,...

I try to talk but I'm in too fucking deep I didn't even think 'cause I just like to speak I'm going home I'm sorry to disturb you I'm sorry I'm disturbing Just look at us now You're on your own At least for tonight, kid But let's just try not to figh...

Always turning out for the worst, you were always my most consistent curse. Now I hope this gets you kind of heated, or stings a little if you even read it. Bringing everyone down, you left this house feeling empty, but it's better then feeling like it's bur...

I feel like all my friends are dead and all my hero's dead. It's the bastard in me that did them all in. The skeletons have added up in my closet. Every bridge is burned. And suddenly there's nothing left. Now suddenly i'm dead. Who's to blame? Me or my dead b...

She had the ’59 out, Daddy let her drive it about. She honked the horn and thought, “C’mon now, don’t me shout.” They took a spin around town, He felt the tears come back. He missed her so much when he was gone And he’ll never leave again. No,...

We had a bad day, nothing to say on the ride home, Bound for the hills and the west coast. Barely took my mind off of the weather and the time And the changing of your footsteps. God, don’t let this be my song, I’ve felt this way, way too long. The scariest p...

I’m cut off, out of the loop, back of the line. Can’t get a word in, Can’t feel your body close to mine. And yeah, it’s really quite more painful than it sounds. I can’t believe we’re losing the connection that we found. I’m heavy with the weight of missing yo...

You could say one of two thing: Call me sometime or let's hang out. Or maybe I could help you out. Stop acting like you'll ever see me again, and like I don't have you figured out. I understand how it works. On paper, we are similar people. I understand how...

She’s over it, just so you know there’s no turning back Your loose leaf and blue jeans and lines from old movies won’t cut it She needs something better than that Get over it, cause you won't give a shit when she’s crawling back Your daydreams and big sche...

Painting over portraits again, I pretend This isn't how I knew it would end. Cause there are no more pages in my book And there is too much ink in my pen So now I'm wishing that the cycle would end, so then I'd learn to be somebody's man Cause there i...

In more ways then one i've been fighting the gravity, it pulled me back to you. You couldn't find yourself or the true side of loyalty. It broke me as the sun comes through my window. We are nearly alone. In many years from now you'll find yourself with a fami...

The rain poured down On the day that I left to Hang with you in New York And every little thing (every little thing) Made me miss you more So I kept running It's like I had never been so sure Of doing something stupid doing something without thinking I'm just...

At my best, I'd suggest I've been weird since she left. It's normal autumn stuff, I guess I never thought enough. Look at me almost free from my crippling disease, shoot bullets through my foot I think that'd work out real good. Call me out, call me out,...

I just love her name I never really sleep, thought about it on the plane And I draw it different ways There was a little good weather but it never really stayed And I guess I can’t complain She don’t cause she won’t Think of yesterday So long, and he’s...

Open your eyes kid You know I'm on your side kid. I'd like to save the world and you could be my sidekick. They'll all say our names. As the words down on the paper answer yesterday's dreams. I've lived a lie kid I'd love to run and hide kid. You could say f...

Somethings weird, I’ve been running on empty. Sick since you left me. It eats me alive like a million diseases. I’m torn into pieces. And what could mean the most I could never express. I’m such a weak boy, but I will save you regardless. Somethings weird, f...

Left her car unlocked, staying outside, Still no sign of him – she feels alright She went back home again to compare with the place she’s in Staring at her car under the streetlight If I’m allowed to stay, and if I wanna stay I’ll change everything, 'cau...

I tried to breathe fresh air tonight to a dead lung And I tried to take on the world tonight but I’m too dumb (too dumb) I’m fighting the urge to drown but the water's too shallow. You played the CD, it spun around, As I spun around, As my head spun around. I...

I can't believe you didn't come here when i waited. After everything we talked about and all the drama we created. You don't even have time for me. You say that you're depressed, well darling welcome to the club now take a seat. You won't feel better in the mo...

When she sees me it'll all be over And everything will be different She'll tell herself that she ought To not think what she thought But she won't listen When she sees me, she'll hate me Then she'll love me again She'll have a smile on her face Though...

And now I know, I know the truth. It’s just a matter of inspiration And it all was just a combination Of the drugs that I did tonight. It’s safe to say that I’m in your head. It’s safe to say that I’m doing a good job. Pretty sure that you won’t forget. It’s s...

I got a funny feeling no ones ever put you in your place Or spit the bullshit right back in your face You never had an ounce of promise within you Every word you says a lie so please don't continue You bitch I'm too good for someone like you anyway Because g...

I walk like you nowadays just keep you close to me somehow, I talk like you nowadays just to believe this memory somehow, And now a girl sits at home with a mixtape, And now a boy out there has a postcard in his room, But it’s somewhere hidden, And she d...

I’m really having trouble right now I can’t seem to express myself I really hope I figure it out I know I suck at everything else How am I gonna mess it up, mess it up? How am I gonna hold it back, hold it back in? How am I gonna fail now, fail now? Ho...

This faded picture shows that time has passed by far to fast. I should have known. Turn up the radio, roll down the windows. Drive me home slow. Where were all the things you stand behind when you needed someone to stand behind? I feel like I’m done here....

She said: "Okay I'm sorry I know I'm not perfect all the time" But take a look in the mirror I'm not the one who's breaking promises Failed to not accomplished all that which that I have tried But take a look in the mirror I'm not the one who's breaking promi...

I felt like a runaway when I stood outside Jim's house I thought that maybe with all of this I have been overreacting or maybe, you save me If I die waiting for my ship to come in I just hope your ship comes in and I'm sorry for wasting your time She finishe...

If i could have seen just how easy it would be to fall in love with what's around me. If would have known just how lightly i'd get thrown into the water i want to drown in. Lady the rain falls. Lady the pains gone. If i could have seen just how easy it would b...

Ruined again, what did I do? I’ve been caught up and distracted by you. I held the moment in the palm of my hand and watched it crumble. I tried to understand how you could be so normal And I could be so awkward day after day. I hate to break the bad news, but...

Walking on the grass and I've never seen this town. My head is feeling and heavy and it's pointing straight down. Remember when I left and you said that you'll miss me forever. Give me a chance to explain, what I did was in vein. I think we need some rule...

It's a shame the lights don't shine on you back in Jersey 'Cuz Broad Street and Walnut are looking real bright And to think, that maybe I had been a better a companion You wouldn't need this rescue once a night I can hear you breath I can smell your shee...

As she walks down the stairs, Suddenly the whole room stands in pairs. No ones arm to hold, not for now. Sleepless nights alone. As she walks down the stairs She's not enough. "Why is nobody alone but me? What is it that everyone else has?" A spine....

It's eleven thirty at night, and your in your bed nice and tight. Maybe your dreaming of me I am calling you, I am wishing you were here. I hope I didn`t annoy you today. If I did you answered anyway. Now I am laying in my bed I am hearing you wishing I cou...
