All in all, it's a quiet scene Riding the train reading her magazine I can't keep to myself when there's someone close to me Text your number Whatcha doing tonight? Said I could come over She was drinking with her friends I couldn't do it Said, baby it's alright Call my sister just to hear her voice She's stronger than her brother She sees through all the noise It's not pretty but that's how it goes I have a tendency, while inside my head, to picture you clearly as I fall asleep in bed I'll get by just on that alone All in all, it's a quiet scene I drenched all my clothes in gasoline Lit a match and faded into sleep Asked myself Whatcha do with your life? Put it all together Fool me once then fool me twice Words came from my father Said, son it's alright

Holy shit, what the hell am I doing? My feet are still freezing Her breath I see clearly It's not right but I did it to myself She gives me that smile We drove for a while [Get back in your car!] It seems clear that a decision's been made But I try to think it over as she leans in closer I was a kid who didn't know what I wanted But when will I learn She takes off her shirt 6 months later and we're at it again My feet feel warmer but my head is the same This town is small and this won't last long There was nothing to lose and that's far from the truth There's always time to make an amends When I get home, I'll do it for you I still think on how I felt then That summer was a mess She takes off her dress

She stayed over last night And I'm trying to keep my head on straight I want to do things right And I know I can't control myself Touch the skin through your ripped jeans With your eyes tell me everything And I'll show you what it feels like Pull me apart while my mind slips away Pure work of art just to see you every day Don't you forget what it feels like to come alive in an empty space Put back in place I found you in the crowd I felt you in the living room This music's way too loud But tonight I'll play you anything

I found a life that's taking over Still getting used to feeling sober Passing the time by thinking upon Feeling alive when things were so wrong I can't deny it's getting harder Some days I don't feel any stronger But, in a way, I'm getting farther Is there a chance she's thinking of me? As she moves on will she still love me? After a while our feet are planted We should have seen this from a mile away As I'm in doubt I keep on running But now I feel it leads to something Passing the time by thinking upon Beauty in life when things were so wrong

The day before Christmas, I opened my eyes To a bright blue sky One I haven't seen for a while I meditated just like I was taught About our lives Are we doing things right? It doesn't matter because I'm empty again Like when I was 11 When there was no resentment I just thought that you should know I'm doing better than I was a year ago I hope to be home soon
