Can you hear me?
Am I screaming loud enough?
To be heard,understood?
Can I fix all that has broken?
Found some photographs of us
The other day
So there's an emptiness inside
My heart today
If I had a chance I’d reach into the past
I'd grab a hold of you and make it last
And then I'd take all the pain away
The weight of the way that things went down
Is heavy on me
And I’m not scared to admit
That I’m dying inside
I’m reaching out I’m calling out to get a hold of you
I’m losing grip, I’m losing time
Losing you I can’t be fine
Are you there? Are you listening?
But I can't fix all the mistakes I've made
Or mend the holes
But I need you to hear me out
And listen to what I need to say
I know the pain I've caused, cause I'm feeling it right now
And I can't keep it inside, I won't hold on any longer
Cause loosing you, is like losing the world to me

Yesterday

Who are we?
Just a dirty old reflection of what we used to mean to you yesterday
What are we today?
Nothing better than yesterday's throwaways
I am all alone, waiting wondering
What comes next
And the truth is I'm hopeless
With the fragmented memory of you
I keep looking back
But you're not there
You're so hard to find lately
And they wonder why I care so much, but it matters to me
These last 4 years
Have been the best of my life and now they're all going away
And I can't stand to see it that way
And what once was something now means nothing
And they say somehow
It'll all work out, but I'm struggling to find the light, at the end of the tunnel
Can we stop?
And take back time, relax our minds let no one
Destroy that part of us, that we hold so near, so close to us
So lie to me
Lie to me, lie to me
Take the truth away
Or help me shake these unshakable feelings
That I can't seem to escape
There's 4 more years
That have passed me by
While I waited on the sidelines
Hoping for some chance to return to the way things were
And they say somehow
It'll all work out, but I'm struggling to find the light, at the end of the tunnel
I won't give up on yesterday
Memories that made me who I am today
So I'll brush it off, and pretend like I don't care
But truthfully it's killing me inside
And I need to find, a way to cope with this
All I need is a beacon of hope
To show me everything will be okay
But until then I'll just wait for time to show me the way

I won't lie, you’re on my mind
It's just a flaw in my design that I could fall for someone
Unpredictable
All these days I spent just waiting
To see if you would ever to come around to me
So I'm taking my chance
And giving all I have
To get the heart I know I need
From the one who has it now
I just want a story with you
Don't want anything else
And I swear to god if I can help it
You’re the one I need to be with tonight
So I can sing you this last song and let you know that you’re the one that
Fucks me up, when I try to close my eyes and breathe
And try to get away, but you’re image stays with me
So I need you here to make it clearer
I wish you'd see all that I do
But instead you look away and only see the way he looks at
you I wish you'd turn and see the way
I do
Cause I'd walk all night out in the rain
Just to see your face again
Hear the laugh, see the smile, that's been breaking me down
All this time, no, I won't give in and fall short anymore
I just want a story with you
Don't want anything else
And I swear to god if I can help it
You’re the one I need to be with tonight
So I can sing you this last song and let you know that you’re the one
That gives me the strength to be the man that I
Can be
I wanna make this world for you and me
