no one wants to be a captain of a sorry sinking ship cause when it starts to sink, you think do i gotta go down with it? no one wants to be the bearer of incredibly bad news cause when you’re the one dropping the bomb you’ve got everything to lose what if three years turns into thirty-something? what if all you got was a whole lot of nothing? what if thirty-something turns into three kids? and you screw ‘em up just like your parents did? no one wants to be the writer of a book that’s never read all those words once full of life may as well be dead no one wants to be the bad guy, baby wouldn’t you agree? honey you’re so good, i guess the bad guy’s gotta be me

i keep clawing my way out of this hole that i’m in soon as the light hits my face, i tumble down again something is testing my strength something’s testing my will, i bet something is showing me this pain ain’t strong enough to kill me yet you pull out my chair said honey take a seat soon as i try to sit there you pull it out from under me Verse: Am F E Chorus: Dm C G Bridge: F G F G F G F E7 our bed is just a queen but lately there’s miles between us i keep waiting on a change of scene i keep waiting for something to bring us back to what we had back to where we were back before the sad back to the happy we both deserve my faith wavers cause who’s gonna save us? i keep waiting on judgement day i get on my knees and pray that we go it’s never gonna be perfect but forever was not a mistake so if we both think it’s worth it what’s it gonna take to go…
you're crazy, you're lazy
that's not a good match there are holes the size of lies you're trying to patch by try, i mean deny (never do it, never do it, do you) and by try, i mean ignore and by try, i mean get by and by try, i mean you stopped fighting for you should just give up you should just give in you should just cut the cord if you can't find the end if you're playing a game that you're not trying to win you should just give up and give in you're hollow, you wallow in pits of despair there's pools filled with sorrow you're trying to repair by try, i mean deny (never do it, never do it, do you) and by try, i mean ignore and by try, i mean get by and by try, i mean you stopped fighting for

Verse: G Em C D G
Chorus: C D G C (shoes away C D G) Bridge: Am C G D if i only had a brain, i wouldn't have gone insane i wouldn't have said such stupid things i'm grasping at straws up here, there's nothing between my ears i'm scared of the silence it brings i lost my family, i lost my friends to falling branches and howling winds i lost my home to inclement weather i keep on clicking my heels together but fancy shoes won't kick my blues away if i only had a heart today, i'd pump the bad blood away put it in a box made of tin i'd clean it out, oil it well, place it high upon a shelf never let it get hurt again if i only had the nerve to find what i deserve to seek what i'm after there'd be sorrow no more, i'd let out a roar i'd let out the laughter Verse: root C F E C Chorus: root Am B C (end on G) my mom, my dad made sure i had the things they never did they worked so hard, they just ignored everything but their kid years went by, i never noticed years went by, i couldn’t see the only thing holding them together was me in the house of leaves in the house of leaves my dad, my mom they tried so long to make it seem okay when something hurts, it just won’t work, it’s hard to live that way years went by, they finally noticed years went by, they finally caught on the only thing holding them together was gone in the house of leaves in the house of someone always leaves sometimes i like my love so fast and furious
i think if i blink it might pass me by but sometimes i turn it down take in your scents and sounds take a deep breath and look around in case it’s the last time slow going, not knowing if this time will be the last so don’t go so fast, don’t go slow going, not knowing if this time will be the last so don’t go so fast sometimes i miss the chance to find the true romance in a stolen kiss or glance, they just pass me by but sometimes i realize this see the moment for what it is take time to blow another kiss in case it’s the last time i know it gets so hard sometimes to smell the roses the vine i know it gets hard to say i love you with the whole weight of the world right above i know that time just seems to fly don’t let the moment pass you by |
