we're doing fine, and it gets better every time

and going back won't feel the same if we aren't staying

give us life again, 'cause we just wanna be whole

thought i'd simmer down as i got older, can't shake the devil sitting on my shoulder, who invited you?

come on out with your hands up, i'm coming out with my hands up

taken for granted, almost everything that i would have died for just yesterday

hey, hey

towards a goal, that's non existent, it's not existent, but we just keep believing

a half empty girl

survival of the fittest

i never found the deep end of our little ocean, drain the fantasy of you, headfirst into shallow pools

maybe if my heart stops beating it won't hurt this much

maybe if my heart stops beating it won't hurt this much

oh, glory

i believe that there's hope buried beneath it all and hiding beneath it all and growing beneath it all and

i think i wanna stay in the car, i don't want anybody seeing me cry now

and all the ways i'd keep you safe, i keep you safe from me

i know you think that i erased you, you may hate me but i can't hate you, and i won't replace you

i'm not used to it but i can learn

tell me how to feel about you now

can't say i'm sad to see you go 'cause i'm not

and maybe then we'll remember to slow down at all of our favorite parts

they taped over your mouth scribbled out the truth with their lies your little spies

and why should i deny what's all at once, so crystal clear?

but now i feel like i don't know you

feeling empty

you're either with us or you can keep it to yourself

living well is not my kind of revenge, you should take it from me

tell me how to feel about you now

with all the things we said and not a minute spent

i believe that there's hope buried beneath it all and hiding beneath it all and growing beneath it all and

you don't deserve a point of view if the only thing you see is you

ooh, i can't look away

where can i turn? 'cause i need something more

no, not this time

any second, feel the present, future and the past connecting

'cause i'd rather waste my life pretending than have to forget you for one whole minute

big man, ooh, little dignity

(it was on my list, i swear i meant to get to it)

and it takes all my strength not to dig you up from the ground in which you lay, the biggest part of me

now we could follow you back home, but we won't

and never will i have to answer again to anyone

if only time flew like a dove

yeah, yeah, hey

but it could take me all your life to learn to love

candlelight, candlelight, burning till broad daylight

now we could follow you back home, but we won't

and you do your best to show me love

i want you to stop insisting that i'm not a lost cause, 'cause i've been through a lot

some things i'll never know
