lyrics

As another hollow day goes by
I sit at home and wonder why
I waste my time writing shitty love songs
About feelings that have only ever gone wrong for me
And I'm constantly caught between
The fear of staying who I've been
And growing old with nothing but my apathy.

Will I ever find the way back to my sanity?
Or have I turned my back on all that was infront of me?
I've gotten good at running away from all the bad dreams
About getting by on bitter thoughts and sympathy.

So here's to another lonely year
Of wondering how I even ended up here
On the underside of a bumpy ride
But I'm still learning how to steer.

And here's to another sleepless night
Wondering if I'll ever be alright on my own,
And if these four walls I built around myself
Will ever feel like home

And it hurts to be alone
And it hurts even more to know
That that is something that I chose,
But I just don't have the confidence to show
My good intentions
My fading perception
That's been searching for the good in everybody else,
But I can't find it in myself to try
To mould this thing that I call my life
And I don't want to say you're right
But I think about it every single night.

Will I ever stop pushing everyone away,
With my uncertainty and dead end mentality?
Will I ever stop pushing everyone away
Or will I dig my way out of this shallow grave before it's too late?

So here's to another lonely year
Of wondering how I even ended up here
On the underside of a bumpy ride
But I'm still learning how to steer.

And here's to another sleepless night
Wondering if I'll ever be alright on my own,
And if these four walls I built around myself
Will ever feel like home

And I've been drawing lifelines on the walls
Trying to trace my way back to last fall
When I didn't feel sick
And I didn't have to fake this
When I didn't feel sick
When I didn't feel sick

So here's to another lonely year
Of wondering how I even ended up here
On the underside of a bumpy ride
But I'm still learning how to steer.

And here's to another sleepless night
Wondering if I'll ever be alright on my own,
And if these four walls I built around myself
Will ever feel like home
