This is my disguise
I look into your eyes and I see wonderful things, wonderful things and I said
Hey girl, where you headed
On this cold October night
Don't say goodbye and you said goodbye
You were everything I had
You were my home
And I never had to be alone and
I guess I was too much for you
But that's ok
'Cause I would leave me too
Pick up the phone, I'm so alone
Will you say sweet things about me when I am gone
Wouldn't you believe this isn't just for me
I'm not as strong as I let on to be
I was writing sad songs about you, and you were having the time of your life
The scars on my wrists get lighter every year, every year
I'll never forget what you said
You'll regret those words when I am dead
I just want someone who will stay
But the ones that try to help me, I just push away
Pick up the phone, I'm so alone
Will you say sweet things about me when I am gone
Wouldn't you believe this isn't just for me
I'm not as strong as I let on to be
No one will ever love me like you did, like you did
No one will ever love me true
No one will ever love me like you pretended to
No one will ever love me again
Pick up the phone, I'm so alone
Will you say sweet things about me when I am gone
Wouldn't you believe this isn't just for me
I'm not as strong as I let on to be
Pick up the phone, I'm so alone
Will you say sweet things about me when I am gone
Wouldn't you believe this isn't just for me
I'm not as strong as I let on to be

Losing Time
03:37

Oh my God
I never expected you to be mine
Never thought I was worth any of your
Time will tell
How this will be and if it will go well
It's too soon for goodbye, farewell
I keep losing girls to all my friends
And losing all my friends to girls
If so many people care, then why am I so alone?
I make time for everyone I love
And they won't even answer their phone
If you give up on me, then I probably will too
How could I have ever expected you to stay mine
Turns out I wasn't worth any of your time
And time told it's story and it didn't go too well
It seemed much too soon for goodbye and farewell
I keep losing girls to all my friends
And losing all my friends to girls
If so many people care, then why am I so alone?
I make time for everyone I love
And they won't even answer their phone
If you give up on me, then I probably will too

I was young and I didn't what to expect
Our love was fire and I'd never been burned before
And now I know what it means to feel the flame
While everything burns around me
I've been breaking walls and boarding planes
I know I can go far as long as I keep walking
To anywhere and everywhere my heart takes me
Tomorrow just has to be better than today
Growing older I do my best to avoid pain
But now I'm colder and afraid for things to change
Now I know I don't have to live with fear
I just need the will to stay here
I've been breaking walls and boarding planes
I know I can go far as long as I keep walking
To anywhere and everywhere my heart takes me
Tomorrow just has to be better than today
I've been breaking walls and boarding planes
I know I can go far as long as I keep walking
To anywhere and everywhere my heart takes me
Tomorrow just has to be better than today

I was a wreck when you found me again
Full of more self hate and insecurity than I had ever been
But you chased me and fought for us to work
But I resisted, I was still too hurt
That didn't stop you, you kept doing your part
Took that pickaxe to my hard and broken heart
Years of work you were almost through
Until you decided that you were through
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Years of building up my self esteem
My trust that everyone around me wouldn't up and leave
My body image and slicing up my wrists
Could now be cure with the simplest, softest kiss
I stopped putting myself through so much pain
Years of work now spirals down the drain
I loved myself a little more every day
That's all gone now that you've walked away
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away
Please don't make me watch you walk away again

Liberty Point Falls

Remember the night out at Liberty Point
Those Pueblo West stars have never shone so bright
Never shone so bright, I've never flown so high
As when I drove you off and watched you die

Sorry, Mom

I'm just a suicidal kid with a motorcycle
A recurring deathwish while around the drain I cycle
Helmet laws don't mean shit to me, I'm not scared of that tightrope
And maybe one day I'll be a splotch on your sidewalk
They don't teach you this in school but it's not until you're dead when you'll be surrounded by friends
I know it seems wrong but your cries for help mean nothing, nobody really cares till you're gone
I got this tattoo on my arm to cover the scars I've been making since I was 13
I guess I can only hope that we can learn to slow down, I'll bite my tongue and stay alive for now
When I was 6 years old my very first friend was strangled to death by his mom's boyfriend
Then when I was 10, right outside my bus stop I was stabbed and then left for dead
I'll never forget the name of that kid who busted into Ben's house and blew his dad away
Torey if I ever see you again you'd better be fucking afraid
I'm sure the neighbors heard me break down with that gun in my mouth screaming do it you fucking coward
But nobody ever came, I calmed myself down, there's no one to blame but myself
I'm too dependent on my friends and it scares them away so I put distance, and keep inside
I guess I'll put it into God's hands to take this pain away, at least I can say that I tried

I wrote you that song using words that a stole from a book that you gave me last Valentine's Day
I kept all the letters you wrote, the ring that you proposed with, the book of memories you made
I kept all our ticket stubs from concerts to movies to games
Half of my wardrobe you bought for me, my Denver Broncos hoodie I wear damn near every day
I keep all my gifts from you on the floor in a crate
These memories we had that were paved into these sidewalks
We broke down each other's dreams in this shipwreck of a city
And yet all you gained were the plans that I lost
But you wouldn't understand that people aren't property
Why would you care? Why would you care?
I'm sorry that you ended up with me
I'm sorry I couldn't make you happy
I'm too much for my friends so I think
I'll push them away before they can leave
These memories we had that were paved into these sidewalks
We broke down each other's dreams in this shipwreck of a city
And yet all you gained were the plans that I lost
But you wouldn't understand that people aren't property
Why would you care? Why would you care?
Then you were gone but I wasn't alone
I had The Ragetones till they said they were done
July 26th, the day my entire fucking band quit
They all just up and vanished and who could blame them
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away
Please don't make me watch you walk away again
Please don't make me watch you walk away
