A song I wrote yesterday

Sit back there's no need to get emotional
The world won't run away from you
At least not yet
In the morning when the sun slips through the pine trees on the east side of town
That's where we'll meet
Everyday that I felt close to you was undermined when I found out that you'd grown tired
Of me
And these weeks have all felt too long
I just want the year to be over
But not the fall
Cause it seems like you all are getting older
But I'm not any closer to graduating
Cause it seems like you all are getting older
But I'm not any closer to graduating this motherfucking hell
It seems like you think that I gave you the cold shoulder
But it couldn't be anymore accurate to how I feel about you

Hello is what I'd say to you if I knew you
But I don't so carry on
And it's killing me that I can't make myself go so I could even talk to you
What is it in my brain that I lack
I slept in till 2:30 yesterday
Well where am I going my love
And when will I meet you my love
What do you wanna do
We could maybe trash a cemetery or two
These holes in my socks seem to grow larger every time I walk out the door
What is it in my brain that I lack
I slept in till 2:30 yesterday
Well where am I going my love
And when will I meet you my love
My love for you seems to grow the less that I know
And my hatred for school seems to grow the less that I attend
Well where am I going my love
And when will I meet you my love

Feelings are hard to contain when they're all that fill up your brain
Meaningless haikus about if whether I'm as cool as her too
But when the brick and mortar burn
Will there be anything left to unturn
Yeah when your eyes are bleeding on the inside
But you never seem to cry
If I can't love you
I don't think I could ever love anyone
And if I can't hold you like I always wanted to
Then it's just me
And I'll be all alone in my room trying to keep cool
Before the night will come to cure my endless fever
I think long and hard about who would be ideal
But somehow it always comes back to you
And I think about her smile
I think about her face as I lay in the garden or sit on my bed
Thinking how she's just wonderful
Oh isn't she just wonderful?
Oh isn't she just wonderful?
Oh isn't she just wonderful?
Oh isn't she just wonderful?
She's just wonderful

Wake up my dear and see the world appear right before your eyes
This'll hurt me much more than it will for you
You'll feel better the next day
Let go of my t-shirt it's much less therapeutic
It'll cost less than a cent in a week
You're smile is crooked and that's what makes it pretty
I can't relate at all
Stop carrying around my notebook
There's nothing poetic about it at all
My words are all just whining like the ones who came before
We're not progressing this sound at all
So take my hand and throw me into the sky like I saw in my dreams
My words have clogged my throat and I'm spitting them out
Do you think my hair will straighten back to the way it was when I was a boy
These chords are not unique
They were passed back down to me
I wish I could make something unique and stop singing all these lies
I don't want your sympathy
Okay maybe I do
I don't know
What to write about anymore

Thinking about saying goodbye
But I don't have the strength tonight
Cause I can't look in your eyes
When the light glints in them and makes them glow
As your sitting across from me on the couch
You look so serene and content with yourself
But I've made you bored
And it hurts
Yeah it hurts
Oh it hurts
Yeah it hurts
I wanna break free from this mold that was placed before I was born
Before I ever loved you
And it hurts
Yeah it hurts
Oh it hurts
Yeah it hurts
Will you still think of me
As that funny kid you knew
Who forced himself in your life
Cause he thought you were cool
Do you remember the parades and the football games
That time it got rained out
And we stayed in
I wanna break free from this mold that was placed before I was born
Before I ever loved you
And it hurts
Yeah it hurts
Oh it hurts
Yeah it hurts
I wanna break free from this mold that was placed before I was born
Before I ever loved you
And it hurts
Yeah it hurts
Oh it hurts
It fucking hurts
