youre gone now
its over
Ive felt this before
pick myself
off the floor
now i'm back searching
for more
where I started from
I moved back across the state
things got a little bit hazy
and ive been spending
too much time
trying to trace out in
my mind
how im gonna say these words to you
how do we put into words
what we feel
in the worst ways
on some days
it just wont go away
and I just dont sit fine
with how you wasted all my time
Left me back here
on the east side
I always saw the
sunrise before you
hide my secrets
in the walls
that surround you
dont even try to hide
i see right through the lies
I'm so done with all these
unnecessary silent nights
Am i still your only one
Dressed in stress for so long
To keep this together
Drove home for the
last time
Last december

I left my heart in Detroit City
I'm one thousand miles away from home
But Michigan will always call me
Back to the place where I belong
I've got these California dreams
They weigh heavy on my mind
And i'll stand out on this street corner
Until I get my peace of mind
But my great lakes
Are calling me
To come back home and
See my family
And all the forest
From back home
Are singing this chorus
To bring me home
I left my mind at home
Right next to the telephone
If you ever may need something
Just pick up the telephone
Remember it's 861
But my great lakes
Are telling me
To go out and be
who I wanna be
And all the forest
From back home
Are singing this chorus
To cheer me on
All im waiting on is a sunny day
All im waiting on are these clouds to go away X3
These waves they talk to me
These lakes are all that I see anymore

For The Years

Another years gone by
How the time just flies
Ive been sitting here
Drying my own tears
On old pictures and letters
That I found
In the back of a closet
That we never got around to cleaning out
This pen and paper feel like my only friends
Cause the ones that I had
They don't care anymore
Bring out the packed up memories
They need to breath a little more
Take all the nails out of the wall
I think I'll be a little sadder this fall
I miss the basement
where we use to sit and talk everyday
And you know
I left the christmas lights up all year
Cause I know
you fear the dark
when I'm not home
I've been out there
on the road
It makes it harder for us both
I know
Haven't shaved in weeks
no thats not like me
Must be these empty walls
Yeah they're getting to me
The house on Mansfield
holds a special place in my heart
It's where we came together and
it's where we fucking fell apart

On Your Own

Fluorescent lights shine down
I wonder how we got here now
Was it the fragile structure
That holds you up
And keeps you warm at night
And i’ve been trying to let my issues go
But it gets harder and harder with every blow
We fall
We fall
We fall to pieces
Pick things up
And just repeat it
Every lie is a little bit different
Every time I get a little more distant
So much to do
So much to be
The worlds a fucked up place
Open your eyes you’ll see
I don’t know all the answers
Even though I claim to
And that’s just me
A little shallow when I need to be
A little brash but I don’t care what you think
No I don’t care what you think
We fall
We fall
We fall to pieces
Pick things up
And just repeat it
Every lie is a little bit different
Every time I get a little more distant
And all I know is your too close
To him
Tonight it feels so right
Up on the roof we sing these songs
With hopes that you will sing along
Sleep on it thats what they said
But this sleeps just fucking with my head
You see
The irony
Anchors on ankles pull me down
Faster than I thought I could
Drown in the sound of your voice
I need you now
Cut ties with everything you’ve ever know
It’s time to swim on your own

All Wrong

This bottle’s kinda drowning you out tonight
I think it’s best if we both move along
Pick a different night to fight
All we do with the time we are given now
Is talk about how it’s all wrong
And how we think we don’t belong
Everyone keeps telling me what to do
I think it’s best if I keep doing me
You should probably focus more on you
This shallow fractured me
Too afraid to stand up tall
For everyone else to see
What i’ve managed to be
This isn’t what I need these days
The good thing about life is you can’t run away
Oh no I did it again
I thought I needed a friend
When all I needed
Was some company to get me through the week
Not like I care anymore
Just your insecurities
You’ll find an open door
When you move on why can’t you see
She said I gave you my heart
And you just tore it apart
And I wish you’d see from my point of view
Not like you ever do
And i’ll stay up all night
Watch you sleep next to me
Just incase this is the last time
Our fingertips will ever meet
Let go of what you can’t change
Your life’s a reflection of decisions you’ve made
Are you happy with the path you chose to take
And I know it’s hard to see it now
Head over heels we all fall down
For better days is years to come
I’ll fight this war I thought i’de won

Meant To Seem

For the first time in my life i’ve had to let things go
Not knowing where i’m going
If you leave just leave me knowing
That I still care about you
And that this tattoo right here reminds me of you
Sail away from the safe harbor
Catch trade winds to the east
Cause every part of me knows I should leave
But thats not happening
Friends I thought that were there
Were just fair weather didn’t care
Cause thats all that they know
And it really kinda shows
Drag your thoughts away from trouble
It’s only bringing you down
You’ll find peace in other things
Thats how this world was meant to seem
Don’t count too quick the days do slip away in sunny waves
Lay to rest blue skies open up wide eyes
So we can dive into the night
And fight
For like the millionth time i’ll say your right
To try and end this age old war of pride and right
But I think you just like to fight
The grass is always greener on the other side
You always dig too deep cause you don’t know whats right
I’m a mess
I’m a wreck and I don’t know why
Take away from life
What it tends to hide
Let the water touch my face so I can know i’m alive
Things don’t feel the same when i’m alone at night
Tell me all your secrets
There is no need to apologize
I’m an expert at extracting all those things you can’t deny
I’m a monster in my own right
Slay me down before I rise
Cause the fall from tall is pretty fucking far
When you don’t know who you are
