Door Away

Boxing up albums and pictures of you
The notes that you left me the years we've been through
Watching my words 'cause I am speechless around you
The house echoes heavy, I know you see through
My flimsy facade, ‘cause I’m high and I’m blue
I’ll say something stupid I’ll regret when I come to
And I’ll never know
Spare my feelings, is this all for show?
A door away, and I could never have you
A door away, still thinking of your perfume
I cleaned the room, returned your things, and I’m still hoping its a mistake
A door away, and I could never have you
You take the office, I’ll take the room
Keep all the memories I’m over them too
Still too many things reminding me of you
I’m hiding from pictures, I’m running from views
I’m wasting my time here, what else can I do?
I’m sick of wondering if what you say is true

I’m trying my hardest not to look at the pictures you take
I’m keeping my distance, I’m watching you stray
I know I can’t handle this, so I look away
‘Cause I’m still wishing I could go back, and I’m wishing I asked you to stay
I wish I could move on
I wish I could make it better
But, if I can’t learn to hate you, then I guess that I’ll love you forever
Advice overheard at a party still feels so hard to take
Advice overheard at this party still ringing in my brain
Tell me to move on, but I’m struggling
Tell me to get over it - I’m done
Advice overheard at this party is keeping me numb
I’m trying my hardest to break down the reasons you gave
Misinformation elaborately leads me astray
I’m wasting my time here - insert a dull cliche
‘Cause I’d give up everything to be with you one more day
Advice overheard at a party still feels so hard to take
Advice overheard at this party still ringing in my brain
Tell me what I’ve done - how I fucked this up
How many things would I have to change?
Advice overheard at this party is a goddamn shame

It's a Fucking Cigarette

And I never wanted to tell you or call it like it is
I can’t deliver the bad news - won’t you break it instead
Just cut me loose, it’s breaking down, I’m falling through
And I’ll just cut you loose, ‘cause that’s what you’ve wanted
And I want to say, there’s a million things I’d take back if you let me
Paint your face until it’s something I don’t know, I swear its helping
A needed change - I’m just trying to move forward, it’s hard remembering all we were before
And I want to say, there’s a million things I’d take back if you let me
And I want to say - purge the feelings I hold onto, I’m so sorry

Seasonal Effect

It’s a seasonal effect of us, remember all the wasted trust
I’m keeping my lips tight and locked together
Without you freewill towards the ground
It’s winter here, the clouds are gone, and I hate December
And I’m just so tired of all the bad nights this month will bring
Can’t wait ’til spring
Just want to go back to summer - before this all came out
Maybe live my life in ignorance, won’t turn my head around
‘Cause I don’t fucking need this weighing on my shoulders
As if it wasn’t enough to leave you had to drag this whole thing out
I can’t wait ’til I am high enough to read your letter again
I can’t wait ’til I am high enough for you to understand

I’m high again so that I don’t feel helpless
Just give me something
I’m breaking down the walls I built through all this
There’s no protection
Can you shut the fuck up? Give me just a second
And can we clear my head, so I can make my exit?
‘Cause I can’t breathe
This empty bedroom’s all that’s comfortable to me
And, you’re so distant are you even trying?
You’re so distant are you even trying?
Just give me something
Can you shut the fuck up? Give me just a second
And can we clear my head, so I can make my exit?
I’m running out of time, I’m keeping myself guessing
Just give me something
