when everything ended
i thought i would be
prepared just somewhat
at the very least but i
cant shake this feeling
my head to my feet
i'm cold but i'm heated
i'm trying to be
someone i'm not
so what am i supposed to do (wooooaaahhhh)
am i stuck with memories of you
well you can have them back
'cuz they're only doing bad for me
(2, 3, 4!!!)
don't listen to my music
give me back my personality
could you cut the bullshit
'cuz i need my own reality
so what am i supposed to do (wooooaaahhhh)
am i stuck with memories of you
well you can have them back
'cuz they're only doing bad for me
tell me how it's gonna go
could you leave me the fuck alone
and get off my back
'cuz i'm really tryna work on me
('cuz i'm really tryna work! on! me!)
Laurel Blvd was a place of sanctuary
now all that's left is an empty street filled
with time i'll never get back

i was hoping i could see you at
the local park
this afternoon
after i beat Nick one more time
with Pichu
(fuck you, dude)
we're drinking capri sun and hanging out
but i can't get the thought of
you in my passenger seat off of my mind
i wanna be better than who i am
i wanna be as cool as all my friends
you said you were getting clean
i swear i'm getting cleaner
(i swear i'm getting cleaner)
i haven't felt this good in years
and i know you haven't either
it's like i'm Fred Astaire
and you are Ginger Rogers
but instead of the tango
we're doing shotgun contests
out on your front porch
getting high in your dad's garage
has never felt this good
but "i love you" kinda.. slipped out.. of my mouth...,
ah fuck /:
just hold me back
from all of this
i know that i'm an apologist
i'm sorry that i held you too close
or when i made burnt french toast
in your apartment
on 4th and Evans
i had it all but you left me for dead
i'm begging you to crawl back into bed
but you're watching Scott Pilgrim again
just hold me back
from all of this
i know that i'm an apologist
i'm sorry that i held you too close
or when i made burnt french toast

it's 4 in the morning
and our legs are covered in cat hair
but i don't mind
'cuz it's all worth the glare that we share at the end of the night
when you go
i think about the time we spent and how it flew past us and i
can't define
how the fuck it works and how there never seems to be enough
i dont know what love is and i know that you don't either
the last one to use that word, well i
never believed her
but now you're here and so am i
so we can stay just for the night
and maybe in the morning everything will be just fine
oh, just fine
i hope you stick around
for a little while
maybe come inside
for a little while
you can learn
everything about me that you love
i hope you trust
me enough
to watch the both of us grow up
and i know it's only been two weeks but i
think you're.. pretty.. fuckin'.. great :-)
i dont know what love is and i know that you don't either
the last one to use that word, well i
never believed her
but now you're here and so am i
so we can stay just for the night
and maybe in the morning everything will be just fine
oh, just fine
oh, just fine
and maybe in the morning everything will be just fine
oh, just fine
*boom* *clap*
i dont know what love is and i know that you don't either
the last one to use that word, well i
never believed her
but now you're here and so am i
so we can stay just for the night
and maybe in the morning everything will be just fine
oh, just fine

empty your pockets
turn 'em inside out
there's nothin' that you can't steal from me
i was hoping you'd run
i was hoping you'd get swallowed up and forget
about me
i can't stop this from happening
i know you're lost
but you can't keep running away from everyone you love
just stand up and show you're worth everything i gave you
you're bleeding out
and i can't stop it from happening
i twiddle my thumbs as i watch you try to catch your breath
you tell me one last time
that you love me dearly
i know that was only in my head
(i know that was only in my! head!)
i know you're lost
but you can't keep running away from everyone you love
just stand up and show you're worth everything i gave you
i bit off more than i could chew
now i'm giving myself heartburn
i'm not losing interest i'm just
losing hope in you
i know you're lost
but you can't keep running away from everyone you love
just stand up and show you're worth everything i gave you
(i can't blame you
i destroyed you
i just wanted some fun)
i bit off more than i could chew
now i'm giving myself heartburn
i'm not losing interest i'm just
losing hope in you
(i can't blame you
i destroyed you
i just wanted some fun)
WOOOOOO!!

i cut ties with all my friends
almost two years ago
and i lotioned up my sunburnt skin
and i called my dad when the birds were winning
i tried to act surprised
when you told me we were done
far from closure all i needed
were the pills you used to keep beneath your floor
i've been in love with you since last fall
or maybe the last few years just on and off
and i just wanna hear you call my name
or watch as you wipe the tears off of my face
you smell like smoke
and it feels like home
just tell me that you love me
and that i'm wrong for thinking otherwise
i cut ties with all my friends
almost two years ago
and i lotioned up my sunburnt skin
and i called my dad when the birds were winning
i tried to act surprised
when you told me we were done
far from closure all i needed
were the pills you used to keep beneath your floor
i crashed my car into the same one as you
you took me off the shelf but you scoffed at the price
you asked me some questions for a little advice
on anything but love or who i sort of like
we're in sophomore year
but i'm still 19
i can't remember a time or place
when you said you cared about me
and i hope you care about me
i cut ties with all my friends
almost two years ago
and i lotioned up my sunburnt skin
and i called my dad when the birds were winning
i tried to act surprised
when you told me we were done
far from closure all i needed
were the pills you used to keep beneath your floor
and i know i'm in your head
just tell me that i'm right
one wrong move and i'll fall asleep at the wheel
and swerve off of Route 9
