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

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 04:28
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

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

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?
