Missed Connections

Take me back to the day where our eyes met but right away
My eyes shot straight to the ground
Was it love at first sight? I might never know
From across the street at the downtown parade
To across my church on Easter Sunday
As quickly as you came into my life
You disappeared in the blink of an eye
I'll be damned if I said I didn't care at all
Whatever happened? Will I ever see you again?
Were you the one for me or just another face in the crowd?
The answers to these questions I might never know
So if you hear me, go out and find me
Cuz I'm still searching and I'm still waiting
For the one whose name I never asked
For the one who can send this message back
So if you hear me, go out and find me
Cuz I'm still searching and I'm still waiting
And if you see me, come and hold me
And tell me that you feel the same way that I do

Another Wasted Scrapbook

I'm sick of hiding my voice behind these fucking chords
Those days have come and gone
My hands are shaking, writing this song out
But it's never felt so right to get it out
Just take my letters and throw them all away
You're not worthy of my love for one more day
As the pictures of us turn black and grey
All those memories begin to fade away
It's 2 AM, I'm still sitting in your empty bed and
Wondering where it all went wrong
Gave you my all, got nothing back in return
But a blank heartless stare
How does it feel now?

Back Burner

Is that you? I can hear you from the other room
Your favorite song rings in my head
And that's me in there, lying in an empty bed
I just want to get these words off my chest
But I know that it's him you love instead
Oh it's alright, just go ahead and push me aside
Just leave me on the back burner tonight
And every time that I think about your eyes
I keep them as the last thing on my mind
Cuz I just wanna be able to call you mine
All I ever wanted was to be
Something that would be greater than better
All I ever needed was to be
Someone that you could call yours
And that makes 3, you don't know what the fuck you do to me
I say twirled like a thread around your finger
Was it something that I said? I get these thoughts all in my head
But when I hear your voice it all just makes sense
I hear your voice, yeah it all just makes sense

Alone in a Crowd

You broke my heart again this time
I'm torn to pieces but you're just fine
It's so damn hard to let you go
I'm sick and tired of being alone
If there's one thing I hate, it's phony sympathy
If you meant every fucking word, you'd still be here with me
As tears ran down my teenage face, you hung me out to dry
Not this time, not this time
Got all dressed up for a night on the town
Threw on all my best clothes and wandered around
Struck out all night filled my head with doubt
I don't quite get what this life is about
I don't need your fucking sympathy
If you meant every single word, you'd still be here with me
And I don't need your pity, get away from me
I've just got to learn how to be alone
Some days I just wanna fall apart
Grit my teeth and tear out my heart
No one around to mend me back to new
Not since I had last spoken to you
It kills me that I can't say it right
Screamed it over 20 million times
I curse myself for ever feeling this way
Some days I just wanna fall apart
Grit my teeth and tear out my heart
No one around to mend me back to new
Not since I had last spoken to you
It kills me that I can't say it right
Screamed it over 20 million times
Close my eyes for another day

Veteran's Day Weekend

I stayed outside at the coffee shop
Tried to make sense of this note you wrote
If I wasn't good enough then why did we last so long?
I sit alone with my guitar
The miles between us tore us apart
Absence didn't make your heart grow any fonder
I feel broken inside
I wanted to see you one last time
Hold your head next to my chest like I used to
I'll keep my phone off for the next few weeks
Close my eyes to get some sleep
Living in my dreams where you're still next to me
I waited in the terminal to say goodbye
While you were off getting high and drinking cheap wine with all your friends
All I have left are these photographs
Pictures they don't always last
What's the fucking point when they just bring me pain?
Hanbury manor, don't call my name
I won't let you get the best of me
I don't miss the bright lights or neon signs
The sparkle of that look in your eyes
November isn't ever a good month for me
I don't miss the phone calls or alcohol
The way it felt to give my all
The western states aren't what they're cracked up to be

The dim lights of the funeral home
A room full of my family but I feel so alone
Terrified I won't know the right words to say
Grew so fucking tired of those hospital visits
But I'd do them all over for just one more minute
I never got the chance to say goodbye
They told me you're better now
Said "try not to break down"
I wish you could hang around
Here with me
Dreaming of you keeps me up every night
The last 23 years flashed in front of my eyes
I've got to hold on
No use in sitting here wondering why
I won't get an answer looking to the sky
The past is gone, I don't wanna move on
I'm writing my memories down
As I take a walk through this town
They told me you're better now
But what about me?
