lyrics

You and I are the same you see,
Decorated catastrophes,
Pretty pictures but incomplete
And lovely on the inside.

In the shadows is where I called home,
Because the best thing to do was lay low.

Don’t you know there’s ’s things I wish I’d never seen,
And I tried to forget everything you told me.
'Cus I’d rather be on the corner of first and make believe,
Than take directions from your lies and feel so sweet

Don’t you know that this world’s cold,
And eventually it grows old.
And your hands are growing numb
The ghost of who you’ve become is haunting all the halls you called home.

In the shadows is all that we know,
Because the best thing to do was to lay low
We hang around in the background,
Hoping for some soothing sound.

Don’t you know there are things i wished I've never seen,
And I tried to forget everything you ever told me.
'Cus I’d rather be on the corner of first and make believe
Than take directions from your lies and feel so sweet

Maybe in my head we’ll be alright, tonight, we’ll fight for something,
'Cus in the end, it all depends on if we choose to stand for nothing,
Maybe in my head we'll be alright, tonight, we'll fight for something
'Cus in the end, it all depends on when we choose to stand

Don’t you know there are things I wish I’d have never seen,
And I tried to forget everything you told me.
'Cus I’d rather be on the corner of first and make believe,
Than take directions from your lies and feel so sweet

Don’t you know there are things greater than you and me,
And I tried to show you what meant the world to me
'Cus I’d rather be standing on first and make believe,
Than take one more sleepless night spent staring.
