Remember when we said we wouldn’t let this come between where we want to go or where it is we’ve been November took a thousand years but at least it made me think If I can’t make you love me I guess I’d settle if you’d fucked me I hope you lay awake at night and wonder where it all went wrong Coz I’ve been dreaming better than I’ve ever done I barely think of you I never even think like this Here’s to you, here’s to me ignorance is bliss What’s with all these conversations we’ve been having It’s not like you to focus on what could have happened You’re full of bad ideas, it’s time to face our fears You’re coming round and now I’m falling through the ground again I hope you lay awake at night and wonder where it all went wrong Coz I’ve been dreaming better than I’ve ever done I barely think of you I never even think like this Here’s to you, here’s to me ignorance is bliss Maybe I'm the asshole here

There’s a sidewalk near my parents’ house where we carved our names in concrete Across the street from the park where we all used to meet and it’s not the physicality of drying cement but the words and where we carved them and what this all meant I don’t know when this came to me or how it got this far all I can say is that our fate is more than who we are I’ve been running round in circles and stumbling for days I’d write it down if I could only find the words to say I can’t promise I won’t let you down I’m learning how to stick around won’t stay in here to watch you go Walking home from Bullcreek station somehow made me think of you the trouble we would cause and all the shit that we would do we saved up all our money and we got matching tattoos mine has a spelling error but it makes me think of you there’s a sidewalk near your parents’ house where we carved our names in concrete across the street from the park where we all used to meet and it’s not the physicality of drying cement but looking back on those years and wondering where they went I can’t promise I won’t let you down I’m learning how to stick around won’t stay in here to watch you go It’s too long since I saw you last We’ll take the chances that would have passed I’m trying hard to let you know

I can’t get to sleep tonight I may as well stay up and watch the stars I lost all my nerve tonight So you can call me a liar I’ve been sleeping on my left more and more these days and honestly I’m not feeling any better I’ve been climbing through my window and sleeping in the backyard in the night I think I’ll blame this on the weather No matter what I do to make myself a better man Its always gonna feel to me like I’m the same boy who woke up this morning saying things will be different today like all my fears from younger years would somehow go away I don’t like any of my songs no more they’re all starting to sound the same I’ve been drowning in my self-doubt I’m always on the outside of the crowd I’m looking for someone to blame No matter what I do to make myself a better man Its always gonna feel to me like I’m the same boy who woke up this morning saying things will be different today like all my fears from younger years would somehow go away

I’m used to staring up at the ceiling and counting the hours away All that is changing, ain’t it amazing how different things are today singing all night til the late AM with the sand between my toes You kept me away from the hearts I could break I guess that’s how it goes I want it all to go so well for you because you blew me away what we had was more sand on our feet that wouldn’t wash away things were simpler when we were together like the definition of the words love and forever the beach will never be the same again The nights growing longer your hearts growing colder the winter is drawing near I knew it was over and when you got sober you whispered in my ear I promised myself when I was ten years old I would be living wild and free now if I were to run into her how would she know she’s me I want it all to go so well for you because you blew me away what we had was more sand on our feet that wouldn’t wash away things were simpler when we were together like the definition of the words love and forever the beach will never be the same again

We staggered home on a Thursday night I didn’t kiss you but I wish I tried I got too drunk to realise how I felt about you I’m hanging on to every word you say like how you want to go away some day I’d spend all year writing songs for you if it meant you’d stay But I stood with you in the rain last night while we got drunk on cheap wine I can’t believe I fell this hard I lost my fear when you stole my heart I took your hand and said lets run away you told me darling oh not today She’s so pretty and I’m a god damn mess how could I compare, could you care any less But I held your hand in the rain last night while you smoked all your cigarettes and we got drunk on cheap wine I can’t believe I fell this hard I lost my fear when you stole my heart I took your hand and said lets run away you told me darling let’s go today
