i tried my hardest to convince myself that you were just a dream
and i was a ghost trapped inside this hollow body
and i am trying so tirelessly to get your attention
but you won't give me the time of day
i always dreamed of what we could be
if you just saw me in a different life
and i always wonder what we could've been
if i just met you in a different life
or maybe if i never left you in the middle of that winter night
who would we be? and who would you tell?
or would you keep me a secret like you always fucking did from the start
until the word gets out
and you'll make another excuse
and then you'll push me away

you don't want me to know that all of this is temporary
and come tomorrow you'll wake up and you'll no longer want me
so just for tonight, we can pretend like everything is perfect
and hide all of our skeletons
until the morning comes to tear us apart
i bet that you never even noticed the way that i'd look at you
i bet you could fucking care less
you'll always have a hand to hold
and i'll just be stuck with this weight on my chest
i'll never forget the way things used to be
and how your loving arms would set me free
i wanted to see the world through your eyes
i wanted to find my thoughts in your mind
i always had so much to say, but you never had the time
or maybe you just never cared to listen

your gaze was so warm and welcoming
i found myself lost within your embrace
i couldn't wait to let my guard down
and watch you carry me away
you had to go
you had to leave me high and dry, just like i'm used to
but i'll never get used to not having you around
i'm learning to live without your grace
but it still feels wrong to start my days without your voice
you'd tell me you loved me while you were still half asleep
and maybe it was all a dream to you
when you stabbed me in the back
and swore you never made a move
i can't regret the choices i've made
or all the days i threw away
cause you're still in every breath i take
i left you with more hope than i could ever hope to find
i was blind, but i was alive

we left at dawn for southern skies
so i could pick apart your brain and find out what's keeping me from what's been on your mind
we'd drive for hours, but you wouldn't say a word
and then you'll lie
you'll promise me that we'll never run out of time
i'll watch as the regret in your tone stains your eyes
but i'll still wait for you to make up your mind
cause i've done this shit a thousand times
you'll let me down
ever so gently
so i won't feel it just yet
and then you'll slowly disappear
and i'll grow used to the distance
lying on the floor
i wish i didn't want you anymore
i'm wearing down
are you happy now?
sitting up in bed
a million fucking things run through my head
words you'll never say
and how it's not okay

the summer flew by
i spent it by your side
the bond that we shared made me fall deeper every day
was it the smile on your face
or the look in your eyes
your smile starts to fade
and you're shying away
so i'll give you some time
troubled soul
with diamonds in your eyes
you couldn't lose me if you tried
i slept through the fall
so i could try to forget
the bitter taste in my mouth that you left
maybe someday soon we can talk about the past
and where we are now
and where we should've been
trouble soul
with diamonds in your eyes
you couldn't lose me if you tried
