Swallow The Sun

It's February and I just want April

To take my hand and pick me up again

Yeah, I'm numb but it's really not that bad

Live life 'til you get it wrong

Take a breath and turn your head

Oh my god, I've gotta get out of this trend

It's 8 o'clock in the middle of a last chance

Can't we just pretend we don't know

Anything or anyone or anywhere anyway?

It's kinda scary in the dark in the dim light

Can't I just pretend I don't mind

Everything or everyone or everywhere anyway?

I've got a lot of life and you've got nothing, nothing

I've got a lot of life and you

Don't swallow the sun, the moon isn't bright enough

We're all like flashlights, useless till you turn us on

Sex and cigarettes are real, the apocalypse is fate

Replace the T with a K

Religion's a reminder that our past is filled with liars

I spell my name with capital letters

But I don't talk much 'cause I'm a beginner at this life thing

Yeah, I'm young but that don't mean much here

If everyone knows that they're gonna grow old

Then why do we act like why we don't like the past?

If we had the chance we'd do it all over again

I've got a lot of life and you've got nothing, nothing

I've got a lot of life and you

Don't swallow the sun, the moon isn't bright enough

We're all like flashlights, useless till you turn us on

Sex and cigarettes are real, the apocalypse is fate

Replace the T with a K

Religion's a reminder that our past is filled with liars

I've spent 21 years replacing my old fears for new ones

I've asked why, how and where

More times than I care to remember

I've got 7 days 'til a new week comes

And 24 hours to convince myself I'm real

'Cause today I'm not so sure I even exist

Sitting by the sinners on a bad day

Everybody's kiss is contagious

I'm tired of watching wars on my TV screen

There's not an easy way to say this

Nobody likes a winter sitting on the wind while the trees get thinner

Can't you just pretend you're a good kid?

Can't I just pretend I really give a shit

Even though I don't really know how I want to live?

I promise I'll be a better person this time next year

This time next year
