Jamie 02:16
I don't want to leave But I better be going soon Even though I don't want to Let's go out for that drink sometime Next week or when you're next free I've got nothing going on Jamie, one day I'll see you In a parking lot somewhere In a town I've never been to
2.
Maybe 02:33
I'm gonna find a way to get out of this place Maybe we can change and everything will be okay Maybe it's all in my head Maybe I'm better off dead Whatever I guess Hell knows I need to go to bed I'll meet you at your house when I know that your dad's not around and we can spend one last summer making plans and sneaking out We'll find a way
3.
Kids 03:13
I spent all my money on ways to feel like someone else Why did I do that to myself? All I've got is my mind and my heart but apparently that can't get me very far I hope I don't sound overdramatic when I say I can't carry on for much longer like this Remember when we were kids? We're not in that movie we used to watch until you were too bad to sleep and you had a bad dream I know the world seems darker than ever but there's always light at the end of the night I hope I don't sound overdramatic when I say I can't carry on for much longer like this Remember when we were kids? And that ghost used to haunt your house but it was just your dad Growing up wasn't meant to be this bad

I don't want you to leave but there's nothing I can say to make you want to stay I don't know what you want but I know I'm not the one or exactly what you need me to be I know I'm not the only one you need And I can't believe that you wanted me I'm pretty sure I loved you more than myself and now you love someone else That's okay I guess, I digress, let's get out of this mess
