The stars shine down on me. From here, I cannot see why anybody else but you and me could get this far. And now, I'm thinking of the place I wanna go. Just you and me forever in this car.
You take my breath away. I never care to ask you if you even think of me at all. And when you come my way, I never care to tell you I'll be there to catch you when you fall.

My vacant eyes have longed for better sights to fill the void she made last year within the confidence I used to voice. And I'm sure that I will waste another year without a cause. Relationships are useless, yet they dominate my thoughts.
That's right. Yeah, I've been lonely for quite some time. You're worth a shot.
Hey Jenna, I've gotta say that I really wasn't ready for how blue your eyes were today cuz they shined so bright. Let me go ahead and start shaking at the.... Hey Jenna, have you got the time? Cuz in a moment let me know if you're into me or satisfied. Yeah, you shine so bright. Let me go ahead and start shaking at the thighs.
I try so hard. It's sad that I have yet to catch your eye in Spanish class. I'm wasted on the way you always sigh. So, go on ahead and lead me through the steps to win your heart, or better yet, skip all the steps and fall into my arms.
I said I love that smile, no it never rests. I know it took a while to get this off my chest, that I have waited way to long. Instead of being true, I'm trying to pretend I wasn't into you. Oh, I cannot comprehend why I can't make you do this and I can't break you to this. I'll try to make it past just friends.

Band Kids

Lately, I've not been myself. Yeah, I try to be somebody else. I'm so concerned with pleasing everyone. But lately I've been thinking hard about being true to who we are. So says the guy who thought that he had won.
I'm fine with life the way it is, and I couldn't live without these kids. Well, maybe that's the only thing I know. But I don't wanna meet the end without the band and all my friends here cuz that's the only way I want to go.
With god as my witness, I won't go alone because I've got my friends here. They keep me alive. And I'll stay out late til I want to go home. Yeah, I'm taking my life back, one step at a time.
I'm taking on the world today, or maybe life just seems that way when we drop it all and start to learn the truth. But we can live another way and we can fight another day yet. Don't ever quit, I won't give up on you.

Memories We've Kept

The sun sets behind the clouds. I see miles past the memories we used to have. Oh yeah yeah. These good times, they never last. I'm wishing I was always there. I'm wishing I was always in your past.
Could it be we are only left with the memories?
Thus ends the electric tide of love through us all. Better get it right.

You're the girl I think of in my dreams. I look at you, you look at me. Everything is right. And you're the girl that makes it hard to breath. A smile at you is a smile at me. Everything is right.
(And no I will not quit tonight)
So let me let go or let me stay. I'll never forget this place. I hope you never hurt so bad, mom and dad. Please stay away. Let go or let me stay, and when I come back this way, I hope you never hurt so bad, mom and dad. Please stay away.

Last night was the best dream that I ever had. I still think that you and I should get out of this town. We'll ride it out.
What is love?
"Life just sucks," I've heard before when everybody is running out of luck. If you're staying here, I'm walking out that door.

I know I have the lines to say, but every single time I see her, I always make the same mistakes. Yeah. I either walk to fast or talk to slow. I try to play it cool, but she already knows cuz, god, it really shows.
And suddenly, oh, I'm wasted on some thoughts of missing out on someone so beautiful, outgoing, and that I like to be around. And suddenly, oh, I'm hating on the life I'm leading now cuz someone much better than I'd hope for is all alone tonight and I know I'm missing out.
I never thought when we got older you'd go and take my breath away. Although the season's getting colder, I still burn for you today. Forgive me if I sound pathetic and if I'm really out of line, but can you put your hand somewhere close to mine?

I was so ignorant and bliss until my sophomore year in high school when I met this girl and thought that she'd be mine. Oh, how you fooled me with your innocence and stripped me of my confidence. You didn't do this once, oh yeah, you went and did it twice.
I'm still embarrassed just to think you didn't want me. Oh, I'd give anything to get those feelings back. My thoughts still linger on the texts you sent and all that I regret. I meant to tell you that I cared. I know you'd have nothing of that because you said that love was nothing but a feeling and that the way I felt was nothing but a lie, which isn't true because I can't explain the reason I stayed up for days and up for many nights knowing that you were with another fucking guy.
I still remember how it felt to be the victim of rejection, while I'd lie awake pretending it was fine. I still remember at that Quadrant show, I tried my best to let you know that I was into you, but now it's clear that I was blind.
So don't you ever try to strike up conversation cuz I'm not interested in catching up this time. What's done is done and I don't care at all cuz someday soon I'm sure I'll fall for someone ten times better, and I know she'll treat me right. I know you said that we had contrary intentions and it'd be better if we'd go our separate ways, but I still think of our untimely end and how you'd been my favorite friend who kept me wide awake and who had always been the best part of my day.

So Close

Evidently I'm a mess who dreams of hopeless dreams at best. I would tell you more, but you don't have the time. The beating heart inside my chest is asking all these different questions about the feelings that are running through my mind.
This is the anthem of our generation: just kick it back, fucking let go. Yeah. Now is the time girl, give in to temptation. Just kick it back, fucking let go. Yeah.
I keep reading books I never read. I'm thinking it was something that I said. I need you in my life. I'm reading books I never read. I'm thinking it was something that I said. I need you by my side.
