I've been waiting for three months and years
I never got the chance to say that I missed you
Yeah I miss you
I've been waiting all this time to say that I don't think that you wanted to stay, but it's okay
It's just another Wednesday to me
You've been telling me that I'm the worst
That it’s my fault we both dove head first
But you know that we had problems before we even got things started
‘Coz you know I'm a pessimist at best
I could never look past the worst things about anything in life
Keep telling me that I'm the one to blame
And maybe that's the problem in the first place
So maybe we're not supposed to be best friends
Well maybe we weren’t supposed to be in the first place
Maybe
Tell me you were honest when you told me everything I wanted to hear

Summer

I wake up to the sound of children jumping up and down
They ride their bikes all over town
It's half past eleven and I'm just getting out of bed
I go downstairs to get some breakfast
But all that's left is bread
In the afternoon we'll get together
Find a beach in this fine weather
Take a dip, don't let it slip
Won't let this slip away
It's summer
Do what you want to
Summer's here
I've been waiting much too long for this
Summer's here, Summer's finally here
I won’t waste a second of it
I’ve been waiting much too long for this
Summer's here, summer's finally here
When it starts getting dark we'll sit by the fire
Lay down, relax, kick back and retire
'Coz summer's everything we want it to be
Grab a hammock, let’s sleep under a tree where we'll
We can meet up and fall asleep in the stars
Feel the sand creep up all over your toes
Driving home without my headlights on, I'm driving through the night
Waiting for the sunrise to tell me I'm back home
Am I back home?

I feel out of place
Out of my own space
I've been losing touch with the people around me lately
I'm feeling fine
Although I like to lie to myself from time to time
I'm a mess, I'm a wreck, I just can't explain it
Feeling down, underground and I'm not gonna make it out of here alive
Unless I put some distance between my thoughts and you
That's what I've gotta do
No, I'm not alright
I'll be fine despite the things surrounding me
I've just gotta fight this out
Gotta fight this out!
Without a doubt, without a doubt
I'm a mess, I'm a wreck, I just can't explain it
Feeling down, underground and I'm not gonna make it out of here alive
Unless I put some distance between my thoughts and you
That's what I've gotta do
I'm a mess, I'm a wreck, I just can't explain it
Feeling down, underground and I'm not gonna make it out of here alive
Unless I put some distance between my thoughts and you
That's what I've gotta do

This was one hell of a week
We met on a Monday
Not much happened that day
We started talking on Tuesday
I started to know more about you
I started to like some things about you
I look forward to Wednesday
I started to feel something strange about you
I was excited to see you the next day
I was so sure on Thursday, that I wanted to make you happy
I thought to myself that you deserved the world
But I could not give you the world
So I decided to give you the next best thing
My heart
Friday was a bad day
I started to realize you didn't feel the same way
You started seeing someone else
The feelings started to fade on Saturday
I forced myself to accept the truth
And by Sunday I was already over you
I decided to move forward without you
And in the end it was you who helped me get over you

Loss

I'm afraid, things will never be the same
We can never feel this way again
We're too late
I can't change your decisions, my mistakes
Can't take back the words we say
I guess, we're to blame
Can't turn back time when it's done
Now all is lost what's left for you and me?
I'm getting tired of this and all that I miss
Reminisce, embracing pain
I'm wearin' out my soul
The strain of growin' old with regrets, and mistakes
I can barely seem to take
What a shame, should've seen your speeding truck in my lane
Could've saved the both of us from the pain we felt on that day
Are we all headed for a tragedy?
Would this be life without uncertainty?
Are we all headed for a tragedy?
What's worse than losin' every part of me?
Can't have what's already gone
When all is lost what's left for you and me?
Another misstep
I tend to ignore
Hurt more than the ones that it came before

Departure

Stay with me, don't ever leave
Hear my words, you're all I need
I'll stay with you through the night
So hold on tight to me
And make me notice how much you care about me now
Though far away, we still talk everyday
Can you hear me?
Are you listening to the static when my voice breaks?
Do you even notice, how far you are?
I've been thinking three years is a lot of time that you aren't around here
You'll be missing me
But I'm sure you'll be somewhere safe and sound out there without me
Can you hear me?
Are you listening to the static on the airwaves?
Standing by the airport, waiting for your flight
To come and take you away from here
Standing by the airport, waiting for your flight
To come and take you away
Way away from here
Way away from me

Pull

You pull me down to earth like nobody else does
Keep my feet on the dirt and hold me down just 'coz
I need an anchor, braving the weather
Eye of the storm, no end in sight
Another disaster, one after the other
Tearing down all I have inside
Haven't slept since I've been wide awake
Been a mess since you moved miles away
And out of my sight
When you got on that flight
Haven't slept since I've been wide awake
Been a mess since you moved miles away
And out of my sight
Please promise you'll write
Please pull me down to earth when nobody else does
Kiss my teeth through the hurt and keep me up just 'coz
You are my anchor, braving the weather
I am the storm, no end in sight
Avoiding disaster, look out for each other
Hanging around, staying inside
Haven't slept since I've been wide awake
Been a mess since you moved miles away
And out of my sight
When you got on that flight
Haven't slept since I've been wide awake
Been a mess since you moved miles away
And out of my sight
Please promise you'll write
