I'll wait for you All summer long

If I shake my head enough, can it stop? How the fuck did I wind up in this dream? Let's pretend to know what it means Let's ignore the space between the door and the floor No, this isn't real We'll work it out somehow Just go, I have no doubt These are words I should say out loud And no, I won't come out of this room not now It's better in here, where the light swirls You were 19 I was 21 Every summer it starts over again and each time I wonder if it'll be like that summer or if everything's grey now? This is nice but it's just one more thing I have to like 'cause everything's grey now

I got lost on the stairs again turning around with one last word I thought i'd get in but these doors, they disappear so fast around here, since we moved in. But I don't care anymore This place seemed so small when we moved in but your door just opened up to thin air so where are you? so where are you? Coming to in a different room than i'm used to sleeping in and it's not really far enough away to make room, for me and you and all the people we've become. and i'll follow your empty cigarette packs hoping they'll lead me home to you like breadcrumbs through the woods of this house. This place seemed so small when we moved in but your door just opened up to thin air so where are you? so where are you? There's not even ghosts in this house anymore just turn off the lights it looks just like before an empty house that no one's ever lived in. Dark blue, dining room Lost woods, living room Lost in, this bedroom Big fights, in bloom I want one night without incident with these cracks in this cavernous basement with roots dug like arteries Filling in Branching out Growing thin But they never end And they never end And they never end And they never end And they never end so I'll never stop looking for you so I'll never stop looking for you so where are you? so where are you?

Maybe this is for the best don't say anything

Nothing's changing you're still waiting for better news Sprawled on the bed Doubts in your head blowing your fuse puppy don't worry nothing to hurry your life up for nervous shaking always crying with the caffeine blues you're late to the movies open the door to be blinded there's nothing to see you're not missing anything puppy don't worry

You woke me up said let's go out And see what we can find driving in the dark interstate before the storm blows in breathing in the wind in outerspace we're the kids awake in ice cold neighborhoods late at night, sliding down the street look at the stars, pick a new cd we're the only car so hold onto me there's nothing to say and that's ok

Ive got nothing in common with your friends but i can see why you hang out with them maybe they're ok admitting they've had enough but maybe they don't have problems with freezing up spinning and waltzing around the room trying to look like i know where i'm going the heys, what's ups, the how are yous just running my mouth i don't even remember how bad i was i just looked up and saw you staring into your cup and i feel pretty dumb as of now 'cause i'll have to talk to everyone again somehow hey, everyone look at me the way you look at the sun yeah, just go back to your conversations beer bottles and clouds of smoke everyone laughs at all my jokes but the way you turn away reminds me of my spine i don't even remember how bad i was i just looked up and saw you staring into your cup and i feel pretty dumb as of now 'cause i'll have to talk to everyone again somehow why can't you see me? why can't you see me? i just looked up and saw you staring into your cup why aren't i good enough? why aren't i good enough? and what's with that look of disgust?

I watch the cars in front of us just dying for something to do but I wait our turn to move while the trees explode in bloom the fireworks fade soon and the tv snow falls down I'll fall fast asleep to last year's shows written beneath my eyes I'll stay up all week watch the screen glow and never leave my room someone shake me please, just tell me to breathe then leave me the hell alone and lately I wonder why the sound of the phone, makes me want to die And anyways it's not like you care anymore so I've got what I had before You're just another, You're just another Face in this crowd And anyways it's not like you care anymore so I've got what I had before You're just another, You're just another you're just another nerve Knives drill through my teeth and in my gums bleeding and numb and dying the color drains my cheeks and makes the whole world look a little redder and underneath the sun my limbs grow weak my eyelids fly and shudder it's the breath I feel in me down in my lungs but no words come And anyways it's not like you care anymore so I've got what I had before You're just another, You're just another Face in this crowd And anyways it's not like you care anymore so I've got what I had before You're just another, You're just another you're just another nerve 'cause I'm scared of hearing your voice now and I see your face in every nameless crowd and I don't know how to defend myself when it's do or die and I haven't felt alive till now if you're afraid of me then you should know that I'm just another coward too afraid to throw your things away these taped up boxes count the days that we won't wake up face to face and everything is wonderful until it's not but who thinks about that we grow up too fast we grow up too fast we grow up too fast

it's late but she'll sleep through the day so it's ok it's ok to forget your name she taps her finger on the glass to the beat of the rain she feels low for feeling so low, low, low oh, oh, oh don't i know oh, oh, oh how it goes with everything that's going on you'd think she'd at least get to be here this isn't her room but she's slept here for days the 40ozs she held are modern art on the floor Fritz the cat: "I've been up and down the four corners of this big old world. I've seen it all and I've done it all." oh, oh, oh don't i know oh, oh, oh how it goes with everything that's going on you'd think she'd at least get to be here

It's just a scab bleeding for weeks It's just a scrape etched in my knees It's just a bruise leaving me confused It's just the home I'm building right now Inconsequential these are just the things happening to me If it helps then close your eyes things are just spinning too fast This is just another night there's nothing wrong if you want it to last I walked over here in the rain I bought myself some Thai cuisine suddenly I felt, like an adult I missed my bus but another one came I tried to guess just what it means suddenly I felt like an adult Inconsequential these are just the things happening to me If it helps then close your eyes things are just spinning too fast This is just another night there's nothing wrong if you want it to last
