lyrics

Keep the dreams, they're all for you
Save your prayers, you'll need them too
Another day is gone
I'm scared to face a choice I'll never have

A secret told, a lonely night
A living room without a light
This can't be all that's left
I can't accept a choice I'll never have

You can't live this way
There's so much I have left to earn
So leave a note in case I never learn

So go ahead and get your fill
Of cigarettes and useless pills
And while the sunlight churns
The deepest burn can't ever seem to hurt you

You can't leave this way

There's so much I don't understand
Why I can't sleep and why I'm mad
So much I may never know
Like where to build and how to grow
And why we always seem too few
And how to live, I wanna learn that too
I wanna learn it with you
We can watch it burn
I will wait my turn
