The leaves on the branches outside Make me wonder where the time's gone I wonder where my life's gone Inching closer towards an ending Maybe I should be surrendering Everything that makes me feel Less alive Never thought it'd mean so much Took a while to just give up But when I did It didn't sit right Lock my thoughts in a box to waste away I don't need them anymore Because I'm tired and I'm sore And I'm not getting any better Never thought it'd mean so much To pick apart what was never there in the first place And if you thought that was hard Well it only gets worse Things won't get better And I'm trying to be more realistic when it comes to daydreams But I keep falling into routines repeating, routines repeating Seems that I might Never find my way back home At least I know I'll never be alone Seems that I might Never find my way back home At least I know I'll never be alone Seems that I might Never find my way back home At least I know I'll never be alone Seems that I might Never find my way back home At least I know That I'm never gonna be alone Never thought it'd mean so much Took a while to just give up Never thought it'd mean so much

Pink Clouds 04:23

The forecast says there's a storm coming through It doesn't scare me, I'm not afraid of you Caged in by my thoughts I can't move Just give it time it'll be over soon Just change your name, your face, anything you can Or waste away as a dying man The story's your to tell (The story's yours to tell) I feel like making progress Might not make it through this When will this song get out? Because the end is never coming At times I feel like running But there's nowhere I can go so I stay put Nobody wants another song about bad weather Let the clouds turn pink and stay that way forever Wishing wells full of nickels and dimes Can't return to me all the lost time That I've spent waiting, and debating Whether this is worth it If only I had something to prove I'm just a kid with nothing to lose Singing songs trying to get through I can see the end it's growing nearer Wait for the storm to pass so you can see a little bit clearer I feel like making progress Might not make it through this When will this song get out? Because the end is never coming At times I feel like running But there's nowhere I can go so I stay put Nobody wants another song about bad weather Let the clouds turn pink and stay that way forever Nobody wants to listen to a downer Swallow lies with your eyes shut, see if that tastes better I just wanna hear you sing this back to me I just wanna hear you sing I just wanna hear you scream this back at me Maybe I'm just being selfish Probably make it through this How can you say for sure? But when my time runs up And I decide to run There's only one place I can go

I'm so cold That I couldn't feel your hands In the middle of the spring And I don't care If you think I'm sick I said it doesn't mean a thing to me Take the time to look inward Instead of looking out And if it seems like I'm a mess these days I just ask that you hear me out I don't care if you think I'm sick I don't care if you think I'm sick I don't care if you think I'm sick Cause things will get better Thigs will get better they say

Get out the car you said I don't wanna see you again Unless you're passing in the hallway I'll pretend you're a stranger You're acting like your mom I said And I don't think you will see me again Unless you're crawling back to find me Wishing that I never left It's so strange to me Why we say things we never mean And when it's been a while since we talked My ears will start to ring I think it's time that we stop being so childish I don't wanna talk till we are ahead of this Sometimes it seems this only goes one way Just stop the bullshit excuses I know you're just pretending to feel this It's not that bad for me It's just bad for you I said you know I never meant it All the stupid things that I said It didn't matter to me because it didn't bother you Wait! Things are getting weird again I'm writing about things that have never happened For some reason I wish that they did I always kind of wish that they did I feel this like has passed me by Stuck inside Forced to hide Wasting the best years of my life Making up the memories I never got to find It makes sense to me Why we hide instead of coming clean It's been a while since we talked and I don't think that it's helping Why don't we start acting like adults We don't know shit but that's not our fault Sometimes it's best to admit the truth Don't depend on me for anything I just wanna wake up from this fever dream Sometimes it seems I've lost my mind Sometimes it feels like I have lost my mind Sometimes it fees like I have lost my mind

The leaves on the trees They don't look the same to me They blow away with time Leaving skeletons behind The winters here are rough It doesn't bother me that much Because I've always been this cold No matter how bad it gets At least I'll always have my friends Maybe for the next few years What will happen after that? But if everybody's gone Put your shoes back on And ride your bike down to A time when things were better Seems that I might never find my way back home At least I know that I'll never be alone
