ive been circling the thought
to tell you things that you think i forgot
like the feelings of self doubt and loathing
that you pushed into my bones while you were busy consoling
yourself, you always put yourself first
but whats worse is i dont blame you
and im not buying an apology
not one thats not sober, and late a year or 3
and im not becoming who i thought id be
and maybe im blaming it on you, but maybe youre guilty
tight corners have held us in close
and we’ve traded off stories, and blankets, and clothes
but i dont think im anywhere near
forgiving a person i once held so dear
my sisters not a saint, oh no
but im not either
we came from a happy home we just werent happy with each other
and i know theres more to the scene
than just me being angry and you being mean
and its hard to get my words out right
it seems they only come out straight in the middle of the night
when im staring at an empty bed and wondering where youve been sent
and all of our untied ends
only tie us together with our secrets and regrets
and id be lying if i said i didnt love you
god i wish i knew if you really loved me too

and ive got cuts i dont know the origins of
and ive got friends who are too busy for the rest of us
sleeping away the last days of our youth
and yelling at our parents for never telling us the truth
i guess im okay with how things are turning out
im a lot poorer than id hoped though
and im not the best socially, nowhere near id hoped to be
but for now thats alright with me
yeah the fears have kept me healthy
kept me from flinging my body off a cliff
since ive made it this far already
i might as well just finish it
and the sadness that grows inside
seems to have found a door
and though its not walking out just yet
at least its knocking
its knocking

im walking alone tonight
i dont mind
ive been here so many times before
whats the pain in one more
yeah i had plans, i always do
but like most days they just fall through
because friends are friends until someone else comes in
and then its over forgotten or abandoned
sometimes i replay
the night when we were
bombarded by frat guys and long boards
i told you id never been so unhappy in my life
and you told me that i was just fine
but your words of encouragement just push me away
because i feel like you dont mean a thing that you say
and im starting to see that you dont understand a thing about me
and i cant believe i thought you could be
anything but a one trick horse
you made new plans of course
im used to it

i wanna write you a love song
but i cant find any love inside of me
im running on an empty though
and im feeling anything but free
they left me here alone
just the way i like it
they left me heree alone
maybe its time ive decided
im worth more than they credit me for
im worth more than being ignored
im starting to feel the same way
about everybody who comes into this place
come and go again, its not like we were really friends
a bond never made couldnt shape wont break
and its not like youd care anyway
