I’ll never
Hold you back
I couldn’t
If I wanted
I’ll be that boy back home
That you don’t call no more
Cause you’re out with your friends
The cool ones from your job
I knew that leaving this
Would have a consequence
I think that it did
I hope you’re killing it
And every day I tell myself
You’re better off with someone else
And that could have been me
If i had just stepped up
And every day I tell myself
You’re better off with someone else
And that could have been me
If i had just stepped up
And every day I tell myself
You’re better off with someone else
It took me 12 whole months just to grow up a little bit
(took me 12 whole months, took me 12 whole months)
I’ll never
Hold you back
I couldn’t
If I wanted
I’ll be that boy back home (and every day)
That you don’t call no more (i tell myself)
Cause you’re out with your friends (you’re better off)
The cool ones from your job (with someone else)
I knew that leaving this (and every day)
Would have a consequence (I tell myself)
I think that it did (you’re better off)
I hope you’re killing it (I hope you’re killing it)

Tell me you’ll be free tomorrow
I’ll show up in my best suit
And by that I mean the wrinkled
Polo on the chair in my room
Tell me you’ll lay by my side for tonight
I’ll tell you that I can be everything you need
And by that I mean I’ll crumble
Faster than I’d ever think
Tell me you’ll live in this house
‘Till the end of the lease
Or the end of our lives
Tell me you’ll hold my hand
When we can’t pay the rent
And we both work nights
So we don’t ever see the daylight
Oh i thought we would make it
I thought we would make it
I thought we would
Oh I thought we would make it
I thought we would make it
I thought we would make it

It's so appealing
To think I had some sort of plan
A funny feeling
Being as funny as I am
The kind of person
To leave themself so brutalized
Over some version
Of how it could have gone tonight
Oh god I'm really scared
Oh god I'm really fucking scared
Oh god I'm really scared
Oh god I'm really fucking scared
Hope it gets through to you
I've got no good reason
I don't get what you're trying to say
Are coming home again?
Sincerely healing
Still somehow so far out of hand
The walls and ceiling
Too close to comfortably withstand
My sense of purpose
Ever-receding speck of light
I'm getting nervous
This time I'll finally get it right
Oh god I'm really scared
Oh god I'm really fucking scared
Oh god I'm really scared
Oh god I'm really fucking scared
Don't know what you're talking about
I've been trying really hard
I'm so excited
I've got all these useless words
Don't know what you're talking about
I've been trying really hard
I'm so excited
I've got all these useless words
Hope they get through to you
I've got no good reason
I don't get what you're trying to say
Are you coming home again?
Oh god I'm really scared
Oh god I'm really fucking scared
Oh god I'm really scared
Are you coming home again?

Tell Me Something

I am sorry
I really don't call enough
I don't know how
To talk about this sort of thing
It kills me
How much you obviously care
Sickness sometimes
Isn't as obviously there
I promise you, mom
This time things are gonna change
When you last called
I just wasn't feeling that
Great to talk to you again
And dad, and all my friends
I know, I know better than to
Swallow a second stick of glue
Excuses shift and rearrange
I have no one else to blame
I know I know I know I know
I know I know I know I know
I know I know I know I know
I know I know
I am sorry
Hard to believe after the hundredth time
I don't know how
To be okay with being alive
Something trembles in my chest
Afraid of those who know me best
You're aging fast
I never grow
You're always proud
I know I know
I don't know how
To talk about this sort of thing
It kills me
It kills me
It kills me

So what
Say what you're thinking
Tell me
Have you been drinking again
In your room
On your own
In your bed
On your phone and
I know how hard it is
To swallow all the pain you've lived
As long as you can remember
It doesn't ever get better than this
There's no use convincing
A storm-battered ship to sail after sinking
Frigid thoughts shower faster and faster
I'll never last one more night in my head
I'm broken, I'm stupid,
I'm selfish and here's how I'll prove it
I'm grateful, I mean it,
I just can't keep on repeating mistakes
The hours I've wasted
The love I have tasted
Tired and faceless
Forget what my name is in time
I'm so sure the best is behind
Why kid myself
I'm so far beyond help
So leave me to die
Fuck all your excuses
I'm gone 'cause the truth is
We suffer, recover
And stay for eachother
All that we've been through
Love hurts if it has to
If tears cannot reach you
I'll never forget you
