’d rather spend my evening Talking to Chloe on Twitter Than having you come over So it’ll be like old times But I know that you don’t give a fuck Cause you're knee deep in your iPhone But Now that you saw my tweets You know that I’m home Buried in my cell phone Tryna’ get a hold of someone new Instead of hanging out with you And your high school stories But you sure know how to get right to me With all those Facebook statuses About relationships and such Poor grammar is a must But I trust that you can do it But I couldn’t give a fuck Whether you give a fuck or not Rip my eye sockets out Make me regret ever going out But I know I’ll make it out of here alive As long as I don’t watch your life Unfold before my very eyes You told this high school story One too many times for me You know I’d rather I’d rather spend my evening Talking to Chloe on Twitter Than having to look you right in your eyes

and i’d be lyin if i said i didn’t miss you and i’d be lyin if i said i didn’t care and i’d be lyin if i said i wouldn’t kiss you but i’m not lyin when i say i love ur hair don’t go, don’t go don’t go, don’t go and you’d be lyin if you said that you had missed me and you’d be lyin if you said that you had cared and you’d be lyin if you said you should’ve kissed me but you weren’t lyin when you said that you were scared oh no oh no oh no, oh no and you were lyin when you said you'd like me all year and you were lyin when you said you’d keep me near and you were lyin when you said that you were lonely and you’d be lyin if you said you made it clear don’t go, don’t go

This is for the lions living in the wiry broke down frames of my friends bodies. When the flood water comes, it ain't gonna be clear. It’s gonna look like mud. But I will help you swim. I will help you swim. I'm gonna help you swim. This is for the snakes and the people they bite; For the friends I’ve made; for the sleepless nights; For the warning signs I’ve completely ignored. There’s an amount to take, reasons to take more. It's no big surprise you turned out this way. When they close their eyes and prayed you would change And they cut your hair, and sent you away You stopped by my house the night you escaped With tears in my eyes, I begged you to stay You said, “Hey man, I love you but no fucking way” I’m sure that we could find something for you to do on stage. Maybe shake a tambourine or when I sing, you sing harmonies. This is for the lake that me and my friends swim in, naked and dumb on a drunken night And it should've felt good but I can hear the Jaws theme song on repeat in the back of my mind Make sure you kiss your knuckles before you punch me in the face There are lessons to be learned, consequences for all the stupid things I say And it is no big surprise you turned out this way. The spark in her eyes, The look on your face. I will not be late. I’m sure we could find something for you to do on stage. Maybe shake a tambourine or when I sing you sing harmonies. I wanna contribute to the chaos. I don’t wanna watch and then complain, 'Cause I am through finding blame That is the decision that I have made. She hopes I’m cursed forever to Sleep on a twin-sized mattress In somebody’s attic or basement my whole life, Never graduating up in size to add another And my nightmares will have nightmares every night Oh, every night. Every night.

it all started with closed eyes and a feeling in my gut telling me i need to keep them shut the whole time because they opened even for a second and i saw your lips they’d suck me in like black holes when they bend light and it was then i realized your silence screams, "I want to be your history." sometimes when i look up i see stars that cut through the sky and fade quickly into nothingness and i pray that you aren’t as fleeting because when we’re lying in roads i get the same feeling that gravity will just turn off and i’ll fall endlessly into something much larger than i am and i wonder if that’s what it feels like to die and if i’ll ever understand god in my lifespan because i want to see god i want to know what god feels like but with the weight of the bible i will break adams ribs and repeat, my dear eve, you do not take after this you were not made in a mans image but if that’s the case why do you feel so lost in the empty space that his hand isn’t why do i wait wondering how long it’ll take you to admit it i’d rather keep my mouth shut then start to say what i can’t finish baby i have limits so i’m singing ‘la la la’ in empty rooms that carry sounds like hollow caves 'la la la' just to prove you're not the only one that can occupy a borrowed space 'la la la' for every ship that was set to sail but got washed away i’m singing ‘la la la’ in desperate hopes that when it bounces back i hear the octave change so if we could just pretend that your voice exists inside this empty void within then holy shit, holy shit, holy shit if you spoke insomnia might loosen its wholesome grip on my throat and i can begin to forgive you for admitting the hoax instead of learning to hate you for very minute you don’t because i sit here wondering if anything you said was true and who it was that taught you to speak bullets without considering the exit wound tell me who because i still think back to the first time you called me with nothing to say that morning you were more than just my friend and we both noticed something had changed you drove to your parents house and we talked about everything we talked about how much it sucked, but no matter what, we had to remain nothing and in that deafening silence i asked if i could still call you my snowflake and you said okay

you follow me everywhere that i go you’re in my dreams (oh my god) you’re haunting me you’re in the air you’re in my head (oh my god) i can’t be still even in my bed oh my god you’re in my head

Passed out on the overpass Sunday best and broken glass Broken down from the bikes and bars Suspended like spirits over speeding cars You and me were kings over the parkway tonight And tonight will go on forever while we walk around this town like we own the streets and stay awake through summer like we own the heat Singing "everybody wake up it's time to get down" And when I pass the bottle back to Pete on the overpass tonight, I bet we laugh I'm gonna stay eighteen forever So we can stay like this forever And we'll never miss a party cause we keep them going constantly And we'll never have to listen to anyone about anything cause it's all been done and it's all been said we're the coolest kids and we take what we can get The hell out of this town Find some conversation The low fuel lights been on for days It doesn't mean anything I've got another 500, 'nother 500 miles before we shut this engine down, we shut it down I'm gonna stay eighteen forever So we can stay like this forever And we'll never miss a party cause we keep them going constantly And we'll never have to listen to anyone about anything cause it's all been done and it's all been said we're the coolest kids and we take what we can get Eighteen forever So we can stay like this forever And we'll never miss a party cause we keep them going constantly And we'll never have to listen to anyone about anything cause it's all been done and it's all been said we're the coolest kids and we take what we can get You're just jealous cause we're young and in love
