lyrics

I wanna sit up late at night
and talk about Paramore
and all they're good for
and all the times that you and I
should have been together

I wanna hear your frantic heartbeat
and we'll play guitar and share our scars
and we'll sit back and dream
about lights and stages and screams

but that will never happen
'cause you're still stuck on her
and I'm suffocating
on the burden left from her
in fact I'm sure
we could be like
Hayley & Chad
and bring the love back
to this cold small town
but that'll never happen
if she's around

i wanna play shows together
and we'll cover songs and lead singsongs
and we'll both travel the world
and we'll be far apart
but I'll still feel your heart
I wanna hear you on the radio
and I'll hear my eyes in almost every rhyme
and we'll sit back and laugh at all the times
we clicked and just ignored it

she's got your heart
in a jar on a shelf
and she's not gonna smash it
anytime soon
no matter how hard I try
all there will ever be
is forced optimism
and coulda beens

(all I have left
is the gift of empty giving
the only hand I can hold
is the one letting me go
these jagged cliffs of love & myths
are sending my soul to sea
the only home I have left
is the emptiness within me)
