lyrics

I try
To fix things every day
But I'm always holding thoughts at bay
And it's haunting me
The way I never mean the words I say
I'm never quite as good as I could be
It makes me wonder
What I would be, what a shame

I look at all the friends I made
Foundations laid, but ties that frayed
All this talk about potential,
But what about the differential
Between me and the kids who see
The world through better eyes than me
I'm talking in my sleep
And I'm walking with glass in my feet

It doesn't matter who lost, who won
What it costs, it's not fun
I'm sick of hearing the applause towards everything I've done
Towards everything I've done

Everything I've built
(Is overshadowed by my guilt)
And all these places that I haunt
(Are covered in my filth)
But I'll write it 'till my wrist is sore
And I'll lay it on my bedroom floor

Bathing in the glow of my porch light, I sit outside my house and watch the rain hit the road this summer night. Watching the smoke float off off the asphalt, trying to remember when everything felt right.

I know that I'm quiet
And I say I'm okay
But no one sees through
It breaks me every day
And I know that I'm weak
In the words that I say
But I'm just being honest,
I'm quiet okay.
