Why do I do this
Pretending I still care
Knowing there's so much I'd rather do
Why did I come here
Cause it’s the only way I'll talk to you
Maybe you're wasted
Saying I changed and
How everyone's forgotten too
Is that how you'll frame me
Another picture in a crowded room
Call it off, you never did
A backbone when you were patient
I'm lost, all over this
Can't help it, I can't take it
And I, don't wanna be missed
Don't wanna be missed no more
Don't wanna be missed
Cause I can't take it all
Feel like I'm tossing
Rocks at your window
I can see a shadow in the room
You turn the lights low
So I know your hiding like you always do
You should be something
Something to someone
Instead of being all alone
So good to know that
When I come back home
I won't be missed by you
You said don't go
I think you'll be gone forever
And don't you dare think that I'll miss you
Don't say you care
Cause the way you left just left me a mess
Yeah the way you left just left me a mess

It's getting hard to wake up
To think again, feel again
Just know you shouldn't wait up
Cause I don't wanna go
Lost just like a stray from
The weight again, I'm breathing in
I wish that this was made up
Cause I don't wanna know
Tossing and turning all night, now I know
Something is wrong and I think you can tell
Stomach is burning inside, now I am
Lost in my mind and it's
Leading me slowly to hell
Save me from my self
I'm kicking and screaming
And I could use some help
You said, I hope you didn't mean it
I know you didn't see it through
I find it hard to stop the bleeding when
everyone is screaming, you're through
I am falling asleep at the wheel
I see it in a daydream
I look ok, it's real again
But then I start to say things
That rip away the hope
So when it comes to take me
I'll hide away, conceal again
And it's ok to break me
I'm already low
Should I say I'm sorry
For the problem that I have become
Should I say I'm sorry
For counting on everyone
When there's no finish line
Then there's no peace of mind
When there's no finish line
You will be lost in your mind
While you're falling asleep at the wheel

It was the end of summer
I already planned to get away
Just had to tie up some lose ends
Goodbye to a few friends
But then I fell in your way
You didn’t call it much then
How we talked about nothing for over a year
But when I got back home I guess I needed to know
If you wanted to have me here
Take me back to the nights on liberty
You were off in class, while I was fast asleep
Dreaming of the day that you'd agree
We should be together away from Liberty
This place was nothing but distance with your name
The day that you left me
The same one you met me
And I shouldn't feel a thing
I didn't plan to listen
When you told me the things that you started to fear
So when you got back home I guess I needed to know
If you wanted to have me near
You can say what you like
I'm gonna see this through
I was just falling apart
But now I've fallen for you
We can hide from the rain
In this empty town
Then disappear with every cloud
