After all this do you wanna hang out
Get a coffee or something
‘Cause for whatever reason
You’ve been on my mind again
Just like last summer, but things were different then
Does it ever cross your conscience
That these songs could be about you
I bet not
Even I almost completely forgot
And as each day goes by
We fly further away
But still acting like we’re not
So where would you wanna go
Pretend we’ll see each other tomorrow
‘Cause I don’t wanna count on the fall
Waiting and waiting, aren’t we sick of it all
So what would you tell me
To make me feel better
Think of July
Think of warmer weather
And I couldn’t blame you
If you stayed away
‘Cause my heart and lungs are cold
They long for better days
Does it ever cross your conscience
That I mean everything I say
I bet not
By now you must’ve completely forgot
We’re still so different in the end
That’s probably why we’ll just stay friends
You’re the midnight sky
While I’m stuck in the sunset
So where would you wanna go
Pretend we’ll see each other tomorrow
‘Cause I don’t wanna count on the fall
Waiting and waiting, aren’t we sick of it all
See you in a month
See you in a year
Say hello again
Then you’ll disappear
See you in a month
See you in a year
Say hello again
Then you’ll disappear
I guess I’ll just stick to daydreams
‘Cause nothing ever stays the way that it seems
I’ll see you in another life
As we say goodbye and we fade into the night

anything at all

I’m talking to myself too much
Pretending that we’re still in touch
And that you even care at all
Asking questions on and on
Wasting headspace all night long
I’m better off falling asleep
I don’t have much else to say
You never thought of me that way
So to you it’s just another message sent
So what’s up now, what’s the plan
You’re doing everything you can
To get far away from here
And I’ll never know why
It's been so long
Do I miss you, I almost forgot
Do we belong
So disconnected and two worlds apart
Where have we gone
I don’t know, it’s probably my fault
Does it feel wrong
To say hello, or anything at all
Yeah I get it, you’ve had enough
Going nowhere’s getting tough
And we’re all scared to go alone
So why’d you never tell me that
You’re far away and won’t come back
‘Cause this town isn’t enough for you
I know life’s been crazy
You don’t have to tell me
And the light's been hazy
Like we’re in a bad dream
And all along maybe you’re right
Better push it out of sight
But it’ll always stay
Alive in the back of my mind
It's been so long
Do I miss you, I almost forgot
Do we belong
So disconnected and two worlds apart
Where have we gone
I don’t know, it’s probably my fault
Does it feel wrong
To say hello, or anything at all
Anything at all, at all, at all
Anything at all

somewhere better

Long ago we’d never change
It was all just fleeting glimpses in the rain
Now subtle nightmares haunt the day, as we both know
With wasted words and things I’m scared to say
Go ahead and fly away
To find warmer weather
There are finer things to chase
Than heart shaped treasures
Tell your friends you’ve gone away
To somewhere better
Someplace far, without a trace
Will you stay forever
Are you happier than then?
‘Cause I can barely tell
You’re running round in circles again
Crossing lakes, and tying up loose ends
And I’ll never really know who you are now
‘Cause you’re headed to the south while I’m northbound
That I’ll never get used to anyway
I’ll get lost on the road, but that’s okay
Go ahead and fly away
To find warmer weather
There are finer things to chase
Than heart shaped treasures
Tell your friends you’ve gone away
To somewhere better
Someplace far, without a trace
Will you stay forever
I can’t do this on my own
Forever lost at sea
I’ve been screaming for so long
And I know you hear me
I can try to drift ashore
But there’s no guarantee
When the ocean is too vast
And it lives inside of me
Go ahead and fly away
To find warmer weather
There are finer things to chase
Than heart shaped treasures
Tell your friends you’ve gone away
To somewhere better
Someplace far, without a trace
Will you stay forever

in a lifetime
03:46

What is it I really want
Is it love or is it comfort
‘Cause frankly I don’t know the difference
There’s not much of a distance
So I’m sorry ‘bout the worry
No I’m not in any hurry
You don’t have to think like that
You don’t have to take it back
Who knows
Where we’ll be in a year or two
Let alone a lifetime
Let alone what’s in the blue
There’s too much to see
And always too little time
But I’m sure we’ll find a way
No need for how or why
I don’t know who I am now
Left my feelings in the background
And now I’m worried
I won’t ever grow up
You have no god damn idea
What goes on behind the scenes
But I guess it’s just the same shit
And chasing stupid dreams
‘Cause I’m still naive
And I’m done with feeling sorry for myself
I don’t deserve it
In the end it’s never worth it
And you know me
So I’ll stop living in a fantasy for now
Until we figure it out
Who knows
Where we’ll be in a year or two
Let alone a lifetime
Let alone what’s in the blue
There’s too much to see
And always too little time
But I’m sure we’ll find a way
No need for how or why
So I’d love to still hang out
Get a coffee or something
But for whatever reason
Nothing feels the same
Maybe I finally cleared my conscience
And realized I was lying to myself
This whole time
Just these chemicals in my mind
So let me know when you’re in town
We’ll sit down and talk it out
Pretending that we’re grownups
When we’re still just kids at heart
With limitless ambitions
Don’t let that slip away
Keep that part of you alive
That’s a promise that we’ll make
