Try So Hard To Pretend (That You're Not Here)

I'm on my way

To some where far away

I can still feel you

AS empty as my skin

Wake me when its thru

Cause I take something for the pain

That passes good times...Goodbye

Today doesn't need to start

Or start over

And over again

I'll give you a hand

My friend

But sadly this is the end

You can hang me

Next to the sky

Onmy way back to you

If your words speak true

Please tell me what to do

 

CAnt seam to stand straight up

When we're always falling down

But we still climb these jagged cliffs

Looking to be the next big hit

Windows open while

Doors tend to shut

us down

Give us a eagles view

Of how beautiful

The city lights are

While we're falling in the ocean

Clawing at the stars

A we dig beyond rock bottom

I breathe this air I give

To give my final wish

To leave this city of dirt

So far behind

That my eyes go blind

These days wont take me

And the walls write

GET OUT ALIVE

So I ran like hell

Till my ankles bleed

 

His little hands

block out the sun

Her little hands

block out the sun

While Police scream

"Put your hands in the air!"

They drop flowers at their feet

We awake to blood and fear on

our streets

 

Its not because of you

But I'm missing

Missing the point

Behind closed doors

I cant find Hope

Or obligations to keep fighting

These wars

I wage against myself

On every corner

Till I hit the oceans floor

And I'll find a reason

To keep you from leaving

 

I tried to buil us wings

Out of paper

But all the cuts

Soacked thru
