I find it hard to find the words that I could say I couldn't ask for this to happen any other way Truth be told, I was used to being on my own But you've brought out the best in me You've helped me learn to grow I'm ever grateful for the patience that you show You had me at Hello (Look into your eyes, a light so bright) (A blinding future you can't fight) And I knew that I could never let you go (Everybody talks, we'll walk it off) (It won't stop me from how I feel) I caught you by surprise (The circus has arrived, it's right on time) (So old and wise, you've lost your mind) Now you have me caught wrapped around your finger (You've got me off guard, my false alarm) (I answer with a song of love) (The circus has arrived and it's right on time) Each day is better than the last Like kindred spirits. You've become my better half I never pictured having this I never thought that I'd find love on the night shift at a Holiday Station [(I've never felt such joy)] You had me at Hello (Look into your eyes, a light so bright) (A blinding future you can't fight) And I knew that I could never let you go (Everybody talks, we'll walk it off) (It won't stop me from how I feel) I caught you by surprise (The circus has arrived, it's right on time) (So old and wise, you've lost your mind) Now you have me caught wrapped around your finger (The circus has arrived and it's right on time) (So old and wise, you've lost your mind)

I was the one that haunts your memories I was the one that always left Now I'm the one without the strength to leave my bed You can't see me Always feel me Never leave you Until the medication's kicking in I was the one that all the mothers wanted to wed unto their daughters I was the one with the tired eyes that captured their attention I was the one that made mistakes Floating out into the space I was the broken promise of a person that I could have been There's nothing stimulating And you're always complaining But it don't hurt no more You'd kill just to feel anything Now I follow you With everything you do And you'll self deprecate To find some truth in what I say I am the guilt that haunts your future I am the constant source of dread I am the doubt that always lingers Constantly inside your head

I never wanted to know I've done so well stuck in the dark I'd be happy to go I won't be gone for long I swear I'll be right back All the pages are bare I guess one day it all dries up For all the years I've spilled my guts An empty page is all that's left I guess it's fair I'm hiding in the car So I can write my songs That no one wants to sing along to anymore No I never wanted to know I thought by now I would have grown And gotten over all this trauma from my childhood I can't ignore it anymore And it's getting old I have some trouble letting go Call it anxiety, depression Poor excuses for my mistakes from younger days I'm still hiding in the car And writing all these songs That no one ever sings along to, it's so hard (Suffocating in this car) So I can write these stupid songs That you won't ever sing along to I just want to do my best to make you proud

It's hard to stay awake I've been walking with a heavy head for several days The empty words that I had said There's no sleep better than a night spent in a hotel bed I feel like a stranger in my own home There's nowhere that I can go I live with the ghosts whose spirits and souls Stray far from the other side Haunted painting in the closet upstairs Drains the atmosphere and fills me with despair And I know how it goes Thrift shop purchases that should be left alone That should be left alone I feel like a stranger in my own home There's nowhere that I can go I live with the ghosts Those spirits and souls I feel like a stranger in my own home There's nowhere that I can go The portrait beside the letter she signed And it said, "I long to gaze at your dazzling porcelain eyes." (I feel like a stranger in my own home)

Still feeling kind of low I got used to this feeling But I'll never let it show I got used to being lonely The only comfort I had Was the growing isolation From inside of my own head I miss feeling like I'm human I'm shutting off all my emotions To stop the trembling in my voice It might seem cold, it might seem callous Truth be told, it's hard to care A sad reminder that this life we live Is usually unfair (They'll all leave you) I'm trying to hold on To any friends that I have left Before too long they'll all be gone I'm bracing for the end The only constant has been change The only thing that I've learned is that Everyone Leaves (They'll all leave you) Trying to stay positive With everything that's going on But I can't do this on my own No, I'm no god damn Superman So I'll be careful and silent Comparably harmless to those who are selfish and brash I miss my friends I miss my bands I miss the confidence I had When I was younger, so much younger What a future I had planned I was the last to leave the hell of my hometown And I don't blame my friends for leaving But I could really use them now (They'll all leave you) I'm trying to hold on To any friends that I have left Before too long, they'll all be gone I'm bracing for the end The only constant has been change The only thing that I've learned Bracing for the end The only constant has been change The only thing that I've learned is that Everyone Leaves
