LYRICS.TXT

I keep on forgetting

That things are always changing

So it hits me like a truck

Whenever I stay on my tracks

'Cause nobody ever warned me

These things would be this crazy

All I want is to find the one

Who stays when the music's done

I made sacrifices

Buried all my choices

Still, you found a way

To make me wanna stay away

Oh, who do I blame

When I set myself on flames?

Oh, I am starving

But my insecurity

Is staring right back at me

Now I'm in my bed

Tucking myself in, I feel bad

Feels like I'm rooted, but not mad

Don't wanna get out of this sad

Oh, oh, oh

The world keeps on moving

Even when I'm here suffering

So all I can really say is, fuck

How do I get out of that?

'Cause nobody ever told me

It would all just be a memory

All I want is to find the one

Who stays when all the light is gone

I made sacrifices

Buried all my choices

Still, you found a way

To make me wanna stay away

Oh, forever written on the leaves

The words you carved in quiet pleas

Oh, wish I had said no

To the secrets

Only the trees could ever know

Now I'm on this pedestal

Drinking all this chemical

But then I fall

What do you know?

Oh, oh, oh

It's like being in a boat

I don't know how I'm afloat

Wishing you'd be here with me

How can I be set free?

Oh, forever written on the leaves

The words you carved in quiet pleas

Oh, wish I had said no

To the secrets

Only the trees could ever know

Now I'm on this pedestal

Drinking all this chemical

But then I fall

What do you know?

Oh, oh, oh
