we let this story go on even though we both know that it's wrong to treat each other like we do, to ignore how bad that we feel, and to take a little more than we use. i'd be lying if i said i didn't think about what it'd be like to be sad over someone that is...

i don't believe in god, i believe in what i see with my eyes but often i am incorrect in my judgement because my contact prescription is out of date. and i struggle with the everyday of staying the same. i don't believe in god, i think i've counted every star...

i'm starting to regret everything i do i spent $10 on a book about the devil, something i could fall asleep to trading dark days for a fix we got so high in your room i almost thought i liked you and you whispered "tell me if it bothers you, tel...

take the time to be nice to everyone you meet. it's an important lesson to learn that you are in control of the people you choose to hurt. promise to yourself everyday that you'll change, you'll be a better friend, you'll be a better person...but you don't eve...

you're sullen all the while i taught you all you know your broken back's carved sutures in the stone that is your past weighed down way down at the bottom where i rest you throw an anchor and hope it's for the best you're clever, but it won't last...

i am the wind, feel me dance across your skin as you are heading in. i am the leaves, watch me crumble with the seasons as i fall deeper into it all. oh my sweet tidal wave i'm not running from you anymore. i'm barely able but i can learn to feel and let you i...

don't you wanna ask me what I've got to say? forget your silver bullets, saved for someone else who's got it figured out so just try to pretend like you don't know my body i don't got a lot to say 

i had hunch you'd be sleeping in hungover or not, it seemed you had lost interest i'd crash my car in some ditch east of your town it doesn't seem it so far, but i'd probably dig us right into the ground because miles make bad friends and you won't ev...

roads spill out from my heart, veins stretch blood from my arms to where you are. tired of stories where the ones that we love rest comfortably and terribly above us. you're out of reach and i am counting sheep. i'm tossing in my sheets, i'm always losing slee...

i heard you'd come, but i didn;t know what to say. a box of your things i couldn't throw away. a hollow body and a heart that won't steer clear of what i want 

like an egg i am growing but we are not the same 

my best friend died when i was five and we buried him two streets over, i don't think i ever cried. my brother died when i was nine and we buried him six feet under, he was still innocent and tongue-tied. i never really learned to be careful, i never really ca...

brother you don't need to turn away father you still breathe blackened lungs everyday separate we stay, two silvered clouds above the haze i buried your name as a soft and lonely thing so make me a wound inside your palm and hold hands with stranger...

i'm doing good, unnoticed. talk about a lack of sympathy.... maybe i stray in my mind. if i think about it, will it grow? the days i spent obsessed to know: am i really here? are my eyes red in this glow? i can't stop thinking about silver 

try hard every day it's ok i know it doesn't mean anything it doesn't have to mean anything and you sleep on the couch in your house wake up cold and alone still hoping she'll come home i don't wanna be your girlfriend i just wanna be someth...

i want to rip you apart and learn how to sleep in the dark. i'll comb through the blood and guts and live in your heart. but you never exhale enough, you just hold onto the smoke in your lungs. you say "we're all gonna die" so it makes it alright. i'm sorry i...

i remember counting gravestones where they buried your brother (best friend). the dirt was wet. you said "i am sad" and i said i was sad too. the sun was setting and i knew i had to say it. "i love(d) you". there is no where for us to go except down. how does...

ward off all your premonitions of the darkness that's yet to come where you'd peel off all your skin and find something you look better in the fog clings tightly to the streets roam the lines to where they lead our lanterns have trouble staying li...

swallow it down, i'm thinking of something i can't say out loud. i've just been wondering why you're in my dreams, leaving me hopeless. it's terrible, i just don't know what this means. there's no room for a doubt that what i've been feeling just isn't allowed...

i'm not unhappy but i'm a little on edge sneak out for some coffee and maybe a cigarette when i said i felt sorry i didn't quite mean what i said i'll tear down our future if you'd stop burning holes in my chest If I said you we're pretty, would you p...

i saw the best of you get stuck between the concrete blocks of where you lived and where you died. i saw the rise and then the fall, the footsteps that always seem to call to me when i was losing sleep. and it's a shame the way we treat the ones we love. i kno...

your son belongs in your arms it seems he grows taller than these trees that cut this sun stretching rays along the streams from your eyes i saw the crumble of our seams and there it is…the wimper of a cold and distant dream wrapped tightly i...

baby's back in my way, no one knows what i know i got no problems 

the sunlight in my room is much like you, it never reaches it's full potential. it could shine so bright that it'd burn right through the glass between us. we are just as happy as we make ourselves out to be, but you know, "the more you get the less you are". 

a night empty from draining out the plug im so hungry, starve myself thinking of... i don't want a car, i couldn't get very far I'm too anxious to focus when we know what we are separation...separation...salvation... 

imagine i was 10 feet tall, then you'd all be staring at me like the monster that i am. i can hide behind so many people, as many as i find. i want you to know that i think of you often, but i cannot love you 

sometimes i wish you'd come over when there is nothing to do i'm always excited i'm always excited to see you but it might be time to reevaluate my life if i'm still writing songs for you and it might be my turn to say that this is not alright if i'm s...

i hate your eyes, i hate your skin, i hate the way you always seem to make me into a nervous wreck. i hate your smile, and how you think you are so "punk", but i've come to terms with the fact you only want me when you're drunk. this rests in my hands, i am no...

if you look hard enough at anyone, you'll see someone else...it's like you're always looking in a mirror except you never see yourself. you'll start doing the drugs you saw them do, start drinking more if they ask you to. because who are you if you don't prete...

"hold it to the higher power"...i wanted it to be spelled out like a monument. the great golden string to bring it together. dressed in silver i am the best around 

i wanna be alone forever. i work best when i am sad, turning the gears inside my head until i feel like i am dead. set me on fire and breathe in what's left of me. 

hold onto yourself i thought one day we'd break out of our cells hasn't this always been a little fucked up experiment for love? or whatever it is you want let's write off all our debts you wiped my cheeks while i wept haven't you always said i'd b...

i should not look at you, you shine much too bright. a golden light that burns my heart from the inside, and honey pours across your words. you fill me up but i never really seem to feel full. but i am not in your bones and i am not part of your soul. so...

i lost all my friends in a strange turn of events, when i wrote a song about how all our motives change with age. and how i wish we'd stay the same. i lost all i had when i joined some Philly band, and sold my soul to rock and roll like how they used to. i lis...

i’m never gonna know what i want. i’ll make the mistakes that we all make, i’ll push away the people i shouldn't push away. i’ll never be happy.
