(chorus)
Because I see your leaves falling,
So bright and red
I’ve witnessed your sanity
Hanging by a thread
You’re slowly dying
Spiralling to the ground
But it doesn’t have to be this way
You can just let her be another page
In your life

You loved her, I know this
It’s sad that it ended
But it wasn’t on her
That your whole life depended
It’s hard to let go
Boy, I know it’s true

(chorus)
Because I see your leaves falling,
So bright and red
I’ve witnessed your sanity
Hanging by a thread
You’re slowly dying
Spiralling to the ground
But it doesn’t have to be this way
You can just let her be another page
In your life

This love tore you apart
It wore and tore your heart
Where have your colors gone
That used to shine like the sun?
Try to understand
This is not what she had planned
And I’m sure she’d disagree
Pick yourself up and I’ll help you get through this changing
Of seasons

(chorus)
Because I see your leaves falling,
So bright and red
I’ve witnessed your sanity
Hanging by a thread
You’re slowly dying
Spiralling to the ground
But it doesn’t have to be this way
You can just let her be another page
In your life

Because I see your leaves falling,
So bright and red
I’ve witnessed your sanity
Hanging by a thread
You’re slowly dying
Spiralling to the ground
But it doesn’t have to be this way
You can just let her be another page
In your life

You can’t let her be more than
Another page in your life

Because I never get anyone, ever at all
There’s just something wrong with me
That makes ‘em never fall
For the girl in the corner
With the broken heart
They say I’m too torn apart for them

All I have is a few friends,
To keep me alive
I hold myself up
And try to strive
If I had just one wish
I know what I’d ask
For someone to care
And see through my mask

Because I never get anyone, ever at all
There’s just something wrong with me
That makes em never fall
For the girl in the corner
With the broken heart
They say I’m too torn apart for them

Too torn apart
Seemingly unfixable
I’ve got too much of a broken heart
And I think it’s taking over
Does anybody care?
I don’t think they do
Now what should I do?
I’ll scream inside my mind for the love I cannot find

Because I never get anyone, ever at all
There’s just something wrong with me
That makes em never fall
For the girl in the corner
With the broken heart
They say I’m too torn apart for them

Because I never get anyone, ever at all
There’s just something wrong with me
That makes em never fall
For the girl in the corner
With the broken heart
They say I’m too torn apart for them
I’m too torn apart for them
And they wanted to do it themselves. <3

The sky turns pink, I hold you tighter
We both know what happens when the sun gets brighter
I feel you slipping into the dark
I thought this was only the start

But the sun is coming
And you are leaving
We’re both saying goodbye
You’re so perfect,
It’s definately worth it
When I wake up and cry
Because you never do survive
The opening of my eyes

In school, I think about last night
It’s in my mind so clear and bright
I can’t wait ’till I close my eyes
And see your perfect face alive

I know most would criticize
But I don’t care if I fantasize
It’s my life, try and take that away
I don’t care what they say

But the sun is coming
And you are leaving
We’re both saying goodbye
You’re so perfect,
It’s definately worth it
When I wake up and cry
Because you never do survive
The opening of my eyes

Please stay the day
It’s better here with you
I really do miss you
Don’t go away
You are my all
Catch me when I fall
I don’t care if you’re all
I ever think about

But the sun is coming
And you are leaving
We’re both saying goodbye
You’re so perfect,
It’s definately worth it
When I wake up and cry
Because you never do survive

But the sun is coming
And you are leaving
We’re both saying goodbye
You’re so perfect,
It’s definately worth it
When I wake up and cry
Because you never do survive
The opening of my eyes
Don’t wanna open up my eyes
‘Cause this is all just a dream…

In my first class I sit by myself
I do what I’m told
And don’t know anyone else
If I had just one wish for myself…

I want someone to care for me
To wrap their arms around my waist
whisper love into my face
i want to feel like i’m flying
when i’m in their embracing arms
knowing that they’ll never do me harm
i want to be their good luck charm
i want to be loved

in my bed, i imagine a perfect boy
he smothers me with love
will never play me like a toy

and i’m dreaming up a perfect boy

then it occurs perfect people don’t exist
and if they did, they’d never love me
he’d be like the others, try to resist
even if he did exist

i want someone to care for me
to wrap their arms around my waist
whisper love into my face
i want to feel like i’m flying
when i’m in their embracing arms
knowing that they’ll never do me harm
i want to be their good luck charm
i want to be loved

isn’t this what we all want?
why should my needs mean anything?
they don’t
love is what we all hunt for
i’ll never be anyone’s everything
love me, someone, love me
tell me you love me

i want someone to care for me
to wrap their arms around my waist
whisper love into my face
i want to feel like i’m flying
when i’m in their embracing arms
knowing that they’ll never do me harm
i want to be their good luck charm

someone please care for me
wrap your arms around my waist
whisper love into my face
i want to feel like i’m flying
when i’m in your embracing arms
knowing you’ll never do me harm
i want to be your good luck charm
i want to be loved
i want to be loved

Thrashing and kicking, I resist
I’m recieving no help with this
Drowning, I’m dying, I cannot breathe
Does anyone care enough to help me?

I guess I’ll just struggle under the surfac

While above it seems all fine
This feeling of under the surface
Is forever mine
I’m screaming, fighting, resisting
This to take me alive
But I’m drowning under the surface
And no one seems to realize

My surroundings are changing
Gradually from blue to red
My eyes are burning and stinging
Thoughts are swirling in my head

Seaweed wraps around me
Like a suffocating hug
This heavy weight pulls down on me
Hauling downward with a tug

I guess I’ll just struggle under the surface
While above it seems all fine
This feeling of under the surface
Is forever mine
I’m screaming, fighting, resisting
This to take me alive
But I’m drowning under the surface
And no one seems to realize

That I can’t breathe on the inside
And all this water starts to make my words
So incomprehendible
They ask how I am
I tell them I’m dying
But the bubbles gurgle, “I’m fine.”

I guess I’ll just struggle under the surface
While above it seems all fine
This feeling of under the surface
Is forever mine
I’m screaming, fighting, resisting
This to take me alive
But I’m drowning under the surface
And no one seems to realize
I am struggling under the surface
While above it seems all fine
This feeling of under the surface
Is forever mine
I’m screaming, fighting, resisting
This to take me alive
But I’m drowning under the surface
And no one seems to realize
There’s murky water in my eyes

I know the way you act,
in and out of school
I think you might like me
I’m no fool
So I just gotta know
Tell me if it’s true
Or if I’m just a little crazy for you

Tell me now, I gotta know
Just spit it out
I won’t see you different
Won’t go and shout
This’ll be between me and you

If you love me, just tell me
I won’t mind
I promise that I won’t
Make you cry
If you like me, please tell me
It’s alright
Its just something I want to know…

If you need me just yell it,
Don’t hesitate
It’s not a problem or big mistake
If you love me, say it,
Don’t ask how
It’s better to tell me now
So please, just tell me now

You’re temporary
Don’t love me a lot
Because soon all of this will start to rot

Beware
I don’t know my heart
I can’t tell when my feelings
Stop and start
I don’t know
I just don’t know

So don’t mistake washable for permanant
I won’t stay long, take a hint
Because this life, this love will never stay
I know you know, so just walk away
Because you’ll never know my ways
This love will not pay

The most commitment I make is henna
I’m too scared of needles for anything more
I look for new boys as if I’m browsing through a store

Watch out
I’m a restless soul
I don’t know if I have heart
Or just a hole
I can’t tell
I just can’t tell

So don’t mistake washable for permanant
I won’t stay long, take a hint
Because this life, this love will never stay
I know you know, so just walk away
Because you’ll never know my ways
This love will not pay

It’s rent that it took in my heart
I’ll kick it out, pretending we never did start
And it won’t hurt me as much as it hurts you
This will hurt you
And I’ll laugh, not look back
I won’t mind
And you will go out of your mind

So don’t mistake washable for permanant
I won’t stay long, take a hint
Because this life, this love will never stay
I know you know, so just walk away
Because you’ll never know my ways
This love will not pay

Wash my heart of all of this
I’m ready to find some new victims
I jump around and never stay
I’ll use you now then throw you away
Because you’re disposable
I have another handful
And you’re not needed anymore…

Stale, dead air darkens the sky
Clouds roll in and they start to cry
Their cold tears fall and I don’t mind
My own have been here for quite some time

So see this pain
Witness this breakdown
Nothing’s the same
Since summer’s come around

The seasons are changing
But I’m looked down upon
For rearranging
The mud hides my footsteps
I think about all the nights
I never slept
Now I’m walking endlessly
Not sure where I’m going, but I guess
I’ll see

I left my family, friends, my life
Now I’m alone with winter’s knife
I wonder if I’ll go back to visit
My house, my brand new museum exhibit

Burdens heavy on my shoulders
Snow pulling down my feet like boulders
I figure I’ll just lay down in the snow
No one seems to want to know

I’m in a heap
On the side of the road
Watch me weep
Into the snow

The seasons are changing
But I’m looked down upon
For rearranging
The mud hides my footsteps
I think about all the nights
I never slept
Now I’m walking endlessly
Not sure where I’m going, but I guess
I’ll see

My seasons are changing
But I’m looked down upon
For rearranging my life
The mud conceals my footsteps
I think about all of the nights
I never slept one bit
Now I walk endlessly
I’m not sure where I’m going,
But I guess I’ll see
Eventually
I’ll forever fall asleep

This will all be a memory,
A way to remember your misery
The scars paint a picture of the past
And the feelings that never last

Blood stains on the sleeves
Inside your favorite sweatshirt
Stinging sensations
That take away your heart’s hurt
He killed you inside
So you slice away your life
Misery causes harm
Let the merciless bleeding run
Down your arm

Sharp edges shine
I see that glimmer in your eyes
The blade pulls you in
Telling you how great it is to die
Blackened feeling in your soul
She gets that way again
People start to drift away
She ends up losing friends

It’ll all go back eventually
Remember the way it used to be?
Which is better, not feeling at all
or knowing the crash of every fall?

Blood stains on the sleeves
Inside your favorite sweatshirt
Stinging sensations
That take away your heart’s hurt
He killed you inside
So you slice away your life
Misery causes harm
Let the merciless bleeding run
Down your arm

Paint your nails black as night
Wear long sleeves and hold them tight
Feel nothing inside,
Friends wondering why
Excessively use the words, “I’m fine”
Just bleed and you’ll never have to cry

Blood stains on the sleeves
Inside your favorite sweatshirt
Stinging sensations
That take away your heart’s hurt
He killed you inside
So you slice away your life
Misery causes harm
Let the merciless bleeding run

Blood stains on the sleeves
Inside my favorite sweatshirt
Stinging sensations
That take away my heart’s hurt
He killed me inside
So I slice away my life
Misery causes harm
Let the merciless bleeding run
Down my arm
Letting the blood drip down my arm

Friendship, love, whatever this is
I’m not sure and don’t question it
Because this is better than anything
I’ve ever felt before
You mean more to me than anyone
And that’s a fact for sure

So agreeable,
All your words make sense
You’re so loveable
More than anyone I’ve ever met

So don’t be sad
Because it makes me sad
To think that you’re hurting inside
So don’t get mad
If he gets you mad
Just take a deep breath and close your eyes
You know I love you
His words don’t matter
Just let me hug you
And it’ll all get better

You’re telling me so many things
I’m glad, knowing that you trust in me
But why do you?
Why do you
trust in me the way you do?

I’m loving it,
Every second being right here
And I’ll never quit
Letting you take away my every tear

So don’t be sad
Because it makes me sad
To think that you’re hurting inside
So don’t get mad
If he gets you mad
Just take a deep breath and close your eyes
You know I love you
His words don’t matter
Just let me hug you
And it’ll all get better

Better than it was before
With you here, I fear no more
Don’t feel unwelcome or pushed away
There’s never a second I don’t want you to stay
Right here
With me

So don’t be sad
Because it makes me sad
To think that you’re hurting inside
So don’t get mad
If he gets you mad
Just take a deep breath and close your eyes
You know I love you
His words don’t matter
Just let me hug you
And it’ll all get better
Than this
It can always get better than this
Let it get better…
