I've been drowning myself in coffee cuz I'm scared of falling asleep
cuz I'm not sure if you'll be here when I wake up
And I'll always have one eye open, and I'll always be waiting for you
And I'll always say I love you because it's true
And I promised that I'd stop writing songs about you
but that's proven to be easier said than done
and I promised that I'd stop writing songs about you
I know to you I was never the only one
And I miss the nights in your dorm and the ones on your bedroom floor
when we were happy and in love and we wanted nothing more
and I remember when you'd lay here and you'd promise you'd never leave
and you told me "darling you're the only one for me"
And I promised that I'd stop writing songs about you
but that's proven to be easier said than done
and I promised that I'd stop writing songs about you
I know to you I was never the only one

Alone; I've always been alone
But then you came into my life, and then you took off in the night
I don't know why you left
I wish I could feel something and I wish that I was dead
so I'm getting fucked up on a Friday night
with my best friends trying to feel alright
and ignore that fact that I'm all on my own
but with them and not you I found something else to call my home
Sunk down into the pits of this couch
I hope that it swallows me, I never wanna be set free
from this house or this town
but at the same time I wish I could get out, I don't know what I'm doing now
I'm on a soul search, I should get off my ass
I should get a job, I should be in class
but I'm sleeping in, oh my god what will I do?
I'm killing myself with these thoughts of you
so I'm getting fucked up on a Friday night
with my best friends trying to feel alright
and ignore that fact that I'm all on my own
but with them and not you I found something else to call my home
I'm moving on I swear
I won't get swallowed by despair
I won't be going down without a fight
I hope I make it out alive

Freshly showered, but I still feel dirty
There's a pain I can't explain in the soles of my feet
I'm not getting better as I go throughout my day
I just wonder what I did to make me feel this way
I'm breaking my back to keep my cool
regretting the day I dropped out of school
"Remember your plans? What happened to them?"
I don't know, man, nothing makes sense anymore
Now I've made a fool of myself
by giving up on everything else
that once help me so high off the ground
but I've fallen down, I don't know what I'm doing now
Every step I take
I feel the life fade out of me
Slowly but surely
I'll need an antidote to save me

Thoughts of suicide cross my mind from time to time
and I wonder if there'll ever be a day where I feel fine
and I hope that the pills will finally kick in
and I'll fall asleep and never be awoken
I'm getting high from secondhand smoke all the time
and I wonder if there'll ever be a day where I give it a try
a day where the drugs will slowly creep in
and fuck with my mind and keep me from overthinking
about life and how I always hate it
and how I think everyone around me is an idiot
I'm so bitter about everything, I hate these songs I always sing
I hate the way I get when I don't hear what I want to hear
So fuck my job, fuck my life, fuck my car, and fuck me too, right?
Fuck everything and everyone that's here
I don't really mean these things I say, I don't know why I get this way
I don't know why I do anything at all
So I'll shut my mouth, I'll go away, I'll listen to what others have to say
I'll stop being such an asshole all the time
I'm sorry if I've offended you, ignore me, you're really stellar
I'll disappear, it's for the best, see you someday

You were the one thing that kept me in line
Now you're the one thing that makes me feel like a waste of time
I'm sorry that I got in your way
So why is it that you make me feel like shit?
When all I ever did was give you everything I have
and now I'm no one, and now I'm nothing
So I'll keep drowning myself in coffee, cuz I'm scared of having dreams of you again
And thoughts of suicide still cross my mind when I think of you with him
And I should be over this by now, not singing about you like a fucking clown
But I can't help the way my mind works and how it still hurts
I'm trying hard to get past this but
it's been a year and I still can't get over it
and I think you hate me, but I think I love you
So why is it that I still feel like shit?
This is all my fault, I'm such an idiot
but you know that, it's nothing new
but the fact still remains, you still slander my name
So I'll keep drowning myself in coffee, cuz I'm scared of having dreams of you again
And thoughts of suicide still cross my mind when I think of you with him
And I should be over this by now, not singing about you like a fucking clown
But I can't help the way my mind works and how it still hurts
I still don't fully know what I did to you a year ago
to make you change your mind and give someone else all of your time
but whatever it was, I'd take it back, and if I could you know I would rewrite the past
But I can't, so I won't, I guess this is how it goes
But you still hate me, I guess I hate you too
I've been drowning myself in coffee cuz I'm scared of falling asleep
cuz I'm not sure if you'll be here when I wake up
And I'll always have one eye open, and I'll always be waiting for you
And I'll always say I love you because it's true
But you still hate me, I guess I hate you too
