A place that I don’t know now Imprinted in my footsteps And when I put my foot down here, it’s been a year, But lately, it feels like forever I guess I always thought you’d be there waiting for me The pieces of your postcard Now nothing more than installation art An homage to the detachment that I tried to feign when really, I think I fell apart And my inclination always gets the best of me So maybe I could be less angry Now that I’ve forgotten the way you used to look at me And you will forget me in new places And I’ll put things in boxes and memorize new faces And I’m sorry I was nervous all the time Do you think that I could make it better if I promised to love you forever?
2.
Apprehensively thinking about all the things that you say when you go But decidedly, I only tell you the things that I want you to know That was my heart split in half the last time I sat down on your floor But now this is me saying come over cuz I’m lonely again and you’re bored I’ll be kind to you I wouldn’t mind if you were too I couldn’t talk to you cuz you weren’t here Songs from last autumn and last summer’s beer You can pretend that you care about me for as long as you like But I don’t really worry about you, I don’t think that we’re much alike That was me crying on your shoulder cuz there was no one else around But now this is me taking it back, it’s an awfully familiar sound I’ll be kind to you I wouldn’t mind if you were too I don’t think I know you now cuz you’re not here Songs from last autumn and last summer’s beer

Dead Ends 03:27
My mouth is dried up You’re blocking my exit Make me feel like you’re not here And in the dark I will memorize the cavities in your chest Self-esteem’s not the problem Caught between two extreme dead ends I could wait for you to come around But I feel good when I’m on my own Convergence unintentional But I know by now what I’m doing Pretend we’re not strangers It’s only for this one careless night, then things will be better Self-esteem’s not the problem Caught between two extreme dead ends I could act like I’ve been running through your mind But I feel good when I’m on my own Let’s see if I can remember this, remember this Cuz I always forget to breathe And I always pretend not to see you Let’s see if I can remember this, remember this away
4.
Getting on in spite of you When the summer isn’t all it’s cracked up to be Maybe I just try too hard to make it easy, Make you think it’s not your fault But it’s always mine, I’m out of time, I am running out of time with you Cuz if I had loved you for a thousand days or more, Or if I hadn’t laid here with this doubt creeping up my spine, Maybe we could help this Somewhere in the back of my mind, to keep from falling all the time, I keep one last image of you And apologies won’t make you smart But I guess it’s different, cuz you’re the one who always changed But it’s never me, why can’t you see that this time things may not be okay Cuz if I had loved you for a thousand days or more, Or if I hadn’t laid here with this doubt creeping up my spine, Maybe we could help this Cuz if I had loved you the way you loved me before, Or if you hadn’t left me with this doubt creeping up my spine, Maybe we could help this

Untitled 02:38
Silence consumes me tonight My teeth start to chatter and you ask if I am alright And I’m not scared of being alone But twenty five hours, now his simple heart has grown cold And I am in your room To take my mind off of it But I like the way you say my name I open myself to vindictive decisions and I don’t think that I’ll ever change So maybe we’re feeling the same Our heavy hearts have grown tired of waiting and constantly feeling so strange And you are in my bed To take your mind off of it Ooh, I’m stealing glances at you I’ve been falling too fast like I’m looking for something to prove So I’ll hide this sadness with anger The same trivial act to protect from attack, I just push you back Cuz you’ll probably hurt me As long as I let you I always let you
