❝

i’m throwing your name around, driving to your house on the other side of town. hoping that i break down, i need to get it together. i didn’t mean to cause you trouble, your lips were too close to my mouth.

❝

if heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied, illuminate the no’s on their vacancy signs, if there’s no one beside you when your soul embarks, then i’ll follow you into the dark.

❝

you have my attention like you’ve had all the while, since that first day when you made my heart smile.

❝

made it through my best year without ever looking back

❝

so let’s set this night off right and stay looking up, overcome these though times and never give up.

❝

but i was scared to death of eternity, i was saved by grace but destroyed by naivety.

❝

that’s not your name you hear me calling out my window at night, your name just sounds like all the things i hate and people i spite.

❝

nothing made me feel further away than ‘left and leaving’ through a blown car stereo. nothing made me feel closer to home than ‘ready to die’ through my headphones.

❝

they said by year 2010 our cars would be flying, why the hell am i still grounded then? are scientists still trying? ‘cause we’ve all been mislead, we’ll just download instead, ‘till the entire population’s stealing college education from the internet.

❝

i’ll catch you again someday on the streets of pittsburgh, pennsylvania.. then again maybe not. where we can sit and reminisce about our younger years and how we’d stay in bed all day when you should have been in class.
