If only you looked at it in the same way 
that I tried to make you see, 
but you went and threw it away 
and it was okay as long as you were happy. 

but then that leaves me being broken and cold, 
so lost and alone, well that's fine i guess ill find somewhere to go 
I'll travel roads I swore i'd never see me go 
ill drink until the bottles empty 
till the smoke that I inhale can finally be exhaled freely 

just to let the ringing stop 

I only suppressed the feeling of feeling anything at all 
rather than teaching myself to let go of what used to make me fall 
because the thought of being [bad word] consumes me, 
with no light for me to see 
no goal for me to reach. 
an impossibility. 

And if I reach that light and you talk to me again 
we can talk about our lives and all the wasted time we spent 
and how much we [bad word] up and missed each other over the summer
but it doesn't matter cause at least we'll have each other 

If only you looked at it in the same way 
but i'm sure you'll find someone that'll stay, 
someone worth your time of day 
and you'll live long and happy. 
because that's all I want to see 
is one of us happy, 
I hope you're happier than me 
Cause that's all i wanna see, is you smiling. 

We can get married by the ocean 
cause [bad word] your eyes 
and the way your hair shines in the sunlight 
but no one knows how it looks in the dim light 
with you staring down at me saying, 
"everything feels so right."
