At the Drive-In

When I took your arm and said let’s go
I know you were trying to call my bluff
There’s no reason to hesitate
You know I don’t have a poker face
These streets are lined with gasoline
Strike the match and we’ll be dead on the scene
Fireworks like the fourth of July
On this cloudless cold spring night
I wanted to tell you what’s wrong
And I need you to know before I’m gone
At the drive-in I fell asleep last night
I tried to stay awake for the entire ride
The roller coaster that you put me through
Why is everything around you changing who you are
Don’t take the time to second guess
Put your trust into me and invest
In one night to make things right
Underneath these starry lights
I’m sorry for what I said before
Understand that I cannot endure
The thoughts of being apart
Everything that got us where we are
Can you feel the words as I speak them
Do they justify a means to an end
Did I let you down again
I tried to push you away
When I should have pleaded you stay
I won’t make that mistake again (I’m sorry)

Giving Up My Problems
02:49

I’m giving up my problems
Giving them to you
I wanted more from this
But now we’re here and I’m stuck with it
I’ve got too many problems
I could name a few
But what good would that do
I’m giving them up and giving them all to you
I’ve heard all of your whispers
You tried to trick my mind
Your imitation games have gone too far this time
So pack your bags but leave the stash
Don’t try to talk me through romance
I can see right through that
Crystal clear just like a glass
Shaking; aching my body’s saying take me
Take me out of my misery
Or make me how we’re supposed to be
Spoken; broken words mesh as glass break
Shatter all of my latest dreams
And lay them out in front of me
Don’t go
I love you but I hate you so much that I can’t walk away
This choice was a mistake
But it’s okay
You turned your back anyway
And left me here to stay
Of all the times that I’ve been hurt
This won’t compare to anything
No matter what I do I seem to keep running away
I could never let you say that it was me and not you
For all of the problems that I know
I’m finally letting go

Come What May
03:30

I can’t help but notice that you stare
And that’s all right because I do too
Your smile is intoxicating
And I’m so sick and tired of waiting
For one of us to make the first move
So take a step towards me
And I’ll make a move towards you
The seasons change but we both know
It’s stronger than before
I’ve searched for you for far too long
And now that you’re here
I need to tell you everything
My promises that won’t be breaking
And come what may I’ll be right there
Waiting for you
You’re constantly on my mind
And I’m having such a difficult time
Focusing on anything that doesn’t involve you
Your eyes light up my midnight sky
In my city that never sleeps through the night
And I don’t know why
But you complete me in ways I still can’t describe
I can’t wait until our day comes
So we solidify everything we’ve worked on
Seven years strong and counting on
I can’t seem to get a grip on
How I could wind up with someone so wonderful
Someone that I can always count on
Always with you

Medication
03:27

|
I’m having trouble knowing what is real
A foreign substance bogs down my mind
Pins and needles shoot down through my arms
My body shakes with no way out
I’ve really done it to myself this time
I try to remember the things that she said
But my memory is falling apart
I’ve tried to cope with the loss of myself
But it seems like I’ve gone too far
I’ll take anxiety with the works
And don’t short me on my time
Medicate my broken mind
Restore me to my baseline
I’m not sure how much I can take
I’m questioning every day
I need more convincing that I’m okay
They don’t want to push this on to me
But they think I need it
At least that’s what they told me
But I’m struggling to believe
A simple pill can cure my wounds
Create a better aptitude
For a broken heart and mind
They said it takes some time
I can’t help but look at her
And wonder how she deals with this
I’m so battered and bruised
Or maybe I’m on the upswing
Just waiting for some good things now
To come my way

October
04:45
|
|||
|
You’re right in front of me
But I can’t see your face
A photograph in my hand
Takes your place
Now it’s all said and done
I’ll be on my way
A match made in heaven
That I’ll never be able to recreate
Though I can’t say that I didn’t try
And you’ll believe me when you look in my eyes
When October comes this distance put between us
Will be a thing of the past; shattered at last forever
But when October came you weren’t there to rescue me
Now I’ll face this on my own
But I know I’ll be fine
I can’t count how many times
You made me fall for you
Your presence still lives in here
Can’t come to terms that you’ve gone
I’ve tried to explain myself
But I could never find a way
With words to tell you everything
Words that meant the most to me
He said I can’t explain; I just have to leave
She cried on her bed and just couldn’t believe
He’d leave and give up everything
She tried to understand but she was too naive
Now she packed up her bags and decided to leave
An empty home of promises he just couldn’t keep
He told her that she was his everything
And she said don’t ever leave me
Will you make it through the night
Will you tell me you’re all right
I can’t make it through the night
Without you
