time to go, i hit the road
you knew that i was leaving but we ended on a bad note
you hear my voice on the radio and you can’t sleep tonight
and i know it haunts you like a ghost
you try to take it back now you’re watching me let go
you see my name from coast to coast, you still can’t sleep tonight
“you don’t get it,” yeah i said it
that was my favorite line
watch me pack my bags as i leave tonight
i’m tired of trying to fight
i swear i won’t come home tonight
i promise you’ll be fine
please just understand, you made me who I am
now i’ll do all that i can to get away from you
it’s 3am and i have been up all night
just trying to find the worst things i can write
so i hope you take these words i say straight to heart
i also hope you crash your car that’s just the start
it’ll sink in over the weekend
at least i hope that i’m right

you’re a selfish little mess, suffocating at its best
intoxicating how you play me down
you put me to the test but i’m not like all the rest
now watch me as i play you out
i got caught up in your lies, it just wasn’t worth the time
i’m sorry i can’t hang around
you deceived me with your eyes but i cut you down in size
so look who’s laughing now
i’m not one for subtlety but you’re selling yourself out for anything
i could’ve gave you everything but you were too deceived by your identity
you wanted the spotlight, well here it goes
i’m gonna make sure that everybody knows
you’re not fooling anyone no
i had my fun now it’s time to let you go
you’ve got a lot of fame for your socialistic shame
it’s funny how it works that way
you tried to play games and it always ends the same
it’s the same shit, different day
you’re just another case of beauty without brains
nothing’s ever gonna change
you’ve got such a pretty face but a bittersweet taste
it’s sad to see that go waste
i could lie and say you’re perfect but i don’t think you deserve it
it takes more than common sense to comprehend; your daily habits and your stuck up friends
you fake a smile so easily like it’s your routine, are you listening?
i hate to say that i told you so but we prolonged the inevitable
there’s only one going down this road and i’m going alone
you were fake, you were so naïve, the truth comes out you don’t know anything
this is how it has to be, forget about asking for sympathy
you said you’d wait forever, but we still won’t be together

My Goodbye

take it in, i’m moving forward finally
now it feels like the world is watching over me
push it out, it’s not as easy as it seems
i know what i want, at least that’s what I think
just keep those cameras rolling, i’m shy but i’m picking up slowly
here’s to a better year, i’m getting out of here
this pen and paper will slowly lift my anchor
but i’ve got a tendency to get in over my head
i’ve been sleeping with the lights on, cause i’m afraid in a moment it’ll all be gone
i knew the warning signs; i didn’t have to think twice
i’ve kept my mouth shut; too long i guess that time just wasn’t enough
this is my goodbye, here’s to the best years of my life
can you tell i’m stressed if i break a sweat?
what you see is what you get
i know that i’m a god damn mess but i’ll admit that it’s for the best
i’ve gotta get up, get out and leave the past behind
i can’t wait around; i’m running out of time
so take back the memories cause that’s all you can keep from me
they’re no use to me now

Serenity

there was a time, not long ago
we lost our minds, the story goes
and we would stay up late in the summer sun, sing along to the same old songs
we had the night, to all let go
we spent our lives out of control
if we only knew what we knew right now, maybe we could turn it back around
we had the world in the palm of our hands, we made mistakes but we still took chances
we had the world in the palm of our hands; we had it all but we took it for granted
when everything is changing, don’t you be afraid
we never wanted it to end up this way, but that’s how stories are made
i know i know it’s a lot to ask but let’s face the facts, we can’t live in the past
so here’s to our serenity, we’re in it for the memories
our hopes were high, our heads stayed low
that was the life, we’d ever known
week by week we were stuck on repeat, everything was within our reach
we had a summer time, state of mind to stay on track
we had each other to discover anything we lacked
we have a list of everything that we wish we could take back now
we’re living on the edge now
just like we always had it planned out
it was perfectly imperfect
but it was worth, yeah it was worth it

i need to get some variety cause i’ve been doing the same shit for the past week
i’m staying up late, i never could sleep cause the suspense has been killing me
so i’ll wait up, wait up, on a shooting star, i’ll cross my heart and hope it takes me far
maybe then i’ll sleep, there’s no anxiety, but i’m just saying hypothetically
get up, get down, like this was the last song of the night
i don’t have to say it twice, that’s just too much
i’m wide awake and you’ve got me dreaming, and i don’t want to wake up
cause i don’t know where it’s gonna take me, so i’ll just keep my eyes shut
ask me now i’ll say, "i’m doing fine.
i’m just a bit restless but that’s alright"
timing’s never been on my side
but tonight i’ll get lucky if i play my cards right
there’s a melody each time, every time i close my eyes
it’s singing me to sleep but i just let it slip my mind
there’s no turning back and i just can’t relax
and i won’t stop because i’ll still give it all i have

California

i don’t care about a cloud in the sky, it could rain here every night
cause when i close my eyes i’m still in paradise
the waves washed away our footprints by the dock where we first met
when the fire went out we still felt it burning in our chests
when i make it back to california, will you still be waiting here for me
i don’t want to go back home, the weathers so cold
just one more night would make my summer brighter just as long as you are mine
there’s something about the ocean breeze that puts us in perfect harmony
don’t tell me it was just a dream because i don’t ever want to leave
we’re so close yet so far, the west coast still holds my heart
this sunset silhouette will never let me forget
the stars in your eyes have never shined so bright
and for the first time, i feel so alive
when i make it back to california, will i be more than a memory
i don’t want to go back home, the weathers so cold
just one more night, cause we know that this is over when we see the sunrise

making my way out of this town tonight
i’m gonna shine brighter than these city lights
there’s a spark in my eye that could light up the sky
but my tongue is tied so this could take some time
gotta make a name, gotta get outta town
i’ve got my heart on my sleeve and my head in the clouds
there’s one way to get up, if nothing’s bringing me down
i only hope to see your face when i come around
please don’t say goodbye, cause i’ll be gone in the blink of an eye
i can’t stop now, i’m only halfway
there’s so much more, i’ll make it someday
and i won’t fall asleep, until i make this dream into reality
the best things in life will take some time
and i won’t let this moment pass me by
this is a two way trip and i got a ticket for a one way ride
there’s no expiration, exchange or destination
i’ve gotta go, i’m not losing hope
i’d risk it all yeah just to know what it feels like to miss home
you’ll be alright, you’ll be just fine
you’ll be alright, It takes some time
my heads above the water and i’m afraid to drown
not because i’m scared to die, but fear i’ll let you down
someday we’ll become strangers, someday we’ll turn to dust
i’ll wait around a thousand years and hope that it’s enough
and we’ll all drift on
