A million thoughts running through my head,
Focused solely on keeping yours alive.
As I watch the others be written off to the dead,
Is there a reason for me to survive?
It's a new day,
But the story's the same.
I've planned out new things I want to say,
I'm just not sure if they are worth bringing out the shame.
The past is eating me from the inside out,
An I've fought so hard to forget.
Although, you're all I think about,
Seeing our pictures makes me regret.
Moments where I could have been the guy,
You've cared about so much.
And I start to understand why,
I'm missing your gentle touch.
Memories haunt me every second I begin to think back,
To the love we once had.
Slowly my mind gives me into the color of black,
And this emotion I am is so much more than just being sad.
I could define all the words that remind me of you,
We'd be here all night discussing this mess.
Conducting our theories on what to do,
And to see if we've begun to love each other less.
My heart's still in it's resting place,
Been with you since day one.
If you're having a hard time reading the expression on my face,
Take a minute and think back to what you have done.
You'll find the answer deep down inside,
Remember, search in the right spot.
An if our thoughts collide,
I'll let you pass by, like you were never caught.
I don't want to fall asleep tonight,
Knowing if I wake up tomorrow nothing will be alright.
And I don't want to live in a world where everyone takes the blame,
But I know, I know nothing will be the same.
Keys on the piano are worn thin,
And the strings on this guitar are out of tune.
Would it be possible for you too forgive my deepest sin?
'Cause honestly, I'm needing you back soon.
I think you should know my darkest secret,
One that I should have told you from the beginning.
It just didn't feel right so I forced myself to regret,
And I kept on playing through this inning.
Apologies are meant to gain forgiveness,
From the person you hurt.
Instead I broke you down in the process,
And since that time I've kept myself alert.
To take away the pain you feel,
It's the least that I owe.
After we're done, I'll disappear as if I were never real,
And your broken heart I will sew.
What matters most,
Is that I know you're happy.
Departing from home flying to the east coast,
When I'm gone, will you miss me?
I'm leaving my heart behind, too much love has been withdrawn,
It's yours whether you want it or not.
Promise you'll take care of it while I'm gone,
And I'll return someday if I'm not caught.
Move on with your life now,
Don't keep waiting around for me.
I know you will get hurt somehow,
Another disappointment is bound to happen don't you see?
I don't want to fall asleep tonight,
Knowing if I wake up tomorrow nothing will be alright.
And I don't want to live in a world where everyone takes the blame,
But I know, I know nothing will be the same.
We can't continue living in a world of pretend,
Soon our fantasy will die.
I'm sorry we're coming to an end,
And it's best that we don't ask why.
All we're ever meant to be,
Is dropped and broken.
Floating alone out at sea,
Holding onto each word that you have ever spoken.
My life raft is when you say "I love you"
I do my best to stay on board.
All that I ever wanted to say is that "I love you too"
But I was scared so I allowed myself to be ignored.
Change the colors of the sky,
Pink,blue, and orange are getting old.
Keep questions until the end, no time to ask why,
And I'm out of cards, so my only option left is too fold.
I'll name a star after you so I can remember,
When we met and how you changed me.
Going our separate ways when we're over,
Nothing makes it easy.
I don't want to fall asleep tonight,
Knowing if I wake up tomorrow nothing will be alright.
And I don't want to live in a world where everyone takes the blame,
But I know, I know nothing will be the same.
With you gone,
I'm the only one to blame.
It's a new day as I approach dawn,
And I know nothing will be the same.
I don't want to fall asleep tonight,
Knowing if I wake up tomorrow nothing will be alright.
And I don't want to live in a world where everyone takes the blame,
But I know, I know nothing will be the same.
Nothing will be the same...
