for what it was
i'm only half wrong
for this bitter tongue
but i just can't shake it
it's so hard to have an ounce of pride
i felt more alive with every postcard, every phone call
i hope you know i kept every single one
every single one
braver than any childhood hero
waking up where february felt like june
and for three days we weren't afraid of getting older
that's the tallest i've been in years
and it was freezing
but i still hit the pavement
torn shoes and a light jacket
and i looked up at the sky as you kissed me
oh we were endless, we were endless back then
we changed with the seasons
never learning to move forward
your roots are going westward
and mine are only states away
i'll save a tree or two on haikus i'll never write
i'll sleep an extra hour waiting for no one
with new walls and drawers, empty and anxious,
we'll be strangers and i'll have that to thank you for.

it's a matter of memorizing patterns
And I will fall down time and time again
But mark my words I will get this right
Even if I have to stay up all night again
Shuffling feet and game faces
What we've all been waiting for
Where this could all end with one well-timed punch
Stealing hearts to survive
Motion blur through black eyes
Is all I can comprehend
And that's all there ever is
The boys back home are watching, on the edge of their seats
It's been a long year and all they want is something to rejoice for.
Heart of gold and fists that have seen better days
But I can't complain, no I can't complain
I've been training all my life for this day
And don't you know (DON'T YOU KNOW)
That they all will come back running yeah
Don't you know (DON'T YOU KNOW)
I've never wanted anything more yeah
Heads up (HEADS UP)
I'm bringing every single star down
Now I know (NOW I KNOW)
Exactly what i'm up against
I've got a stiff upper lip and a steady diet of chocolate bars
Ain't nobody gonna stop me from taking what's mine
When this is all over, i'll ride past the city limits
And i'm never looking back!
No i'm never looking back!
All eyes on me x4
AND I CAN'T GIVE UP

I've been wondering these feilds for days and i feel like,
Iv'e gotten nowhere.
Counting days and hours on my fingers has,
Gotten me nowhere fast.
Stranger peopel in staranger towns,
Adding more weight on my back.
I've been asleep for seven years and all i got was,
This shitty earring to show for it.
I keep my eyes to the ground,
The pavement's the only thing familiar anymore.
Say nothing and always keep moving forward has been my
tool of the trade for years.
If i could say anythign well you know what it would be.
Maybe i should have
Stayed home today.
Turn the Page,
Wash your hands,
Start it all over again.
Turn the Page,
Wash your hands,
Start it all over again.
I keep my eyes to the ground,
The pavement's the only thing familiar anymore.
Say nothing and always keep moving forward has been my
tool of the trade for years.
If i could say anythign well you know what it would be.
Maybe i should have
Stayed home today.

I' have alot of things to look out for.
Everyone told me to never look back
Or i'd be reduced to a puddle.
I'm the newest kid on the block,
At most i'd like to get through the week.
One block forward and two blocks back,
All i can manage to do is aim for windows.
I've earned my claws, as time's gone on,
but i'm nameless.
LIttle do i know,
I'm working for
the notarioty of three people.
when i told you,
that death was staring me in the face,
i wasn't lying.
When the end
of the week comes
will we see sunday's
morning sun
Maybe someday,
My bike will shoot off into space.
Maybe someday,
Red houses won't be the last thing that i see.
I'll paint them all white!
