Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s promise to never be happy again And from this point on we’ll pretend that we’re dead The only thing left is to bury us deep underground We’ll stay up at night and not know what to do We’ll turn out the lights all alone in our rooms And remember our dreams just to know that they never came true Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad We’ll lock all the doors and we’ll close all the blinds Forget that the world’s more than just what’s inside ‘Cause the future’s incredible only for everyone else We’ll throw out our clothes and we’ll grow out our hair We’ll make it quite clear that we don’t even care And neither do you, so what’s the point, anyway? Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad We’ll tell everyone that we know that we lied And make sure we’re in public each time that we cry We’ll sing all the songs that remind us of no better times We’ll fall out of love and we’ll lose all our friends ‘Cause we know that we’ll all be alone in the end And the only ones left are the ones that don’t know how we failed Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad Let’s get sad, let’s get sad, let’s get sad

I know what I want in life To have you right by my side ‘Cause you make me feel alive You never knew that I felt that way Because I was too scared to say So I wait for that fateful day I dream that you’ll realize that the two of us are right I dream that I’ll realize the spoils of my plight I rallied against my fear To tell what you had to hear That I was in love, my dear But you found love in another place In the eyes of another face A feeling I can’t replace I hoped that you’d realize that the two of us were right I hope that you’ll realize that I can’t give up the fight I listened to my heart and it led me to this Thoughts I can’t escape, of moments of bliss I know that it’s a dream I know I can’t complete That’s why I can’t get it out of my mind I look up at the clouds and I wonder why Why it can’t be me to put the look in your eye Because love’s a two-way deal, you can’t make another feel I’m wondering what on earth I should say to you I knew that you would be shocked by my confession I know that I need relief from this obsession I waited for you at the back of the line, wondering if I would get my moment Being lovelorn over my best friend was enough, so I took my chance and I took my chance and You told me that what I feel Couldn’t possibly be for real Friendship can’t create that seal I know what love means to me It’s making another see They make you the best you can be I pray that you’ll realize that the two of us can be right And I pray that I’ll realize that I should give up the fight I listened to my heart and it led me to this Thoughts I can’t escape, of moments of bliss I know that it’s a dream I know I can’t complete But why can’t I get it out of my mind I look up at the clouds and I wonder why Why it can’t be me to put the look in your eye But love’s a two-way deal, you can’t make another feel So, what the hell am I supposed to do? We will try this again my friend Our friendship will never end But I’ll try to comprehend That’s the way it is

Feet 03:14
There were things when we got here, there’ll be things when we are gone And we’ll never figure out which of these two is one Because the harder that we try, we amplify the damage done And I can’t be everything I am to everyone at once You say the same old words time and time, how things are gonna change Well, darling, I’ve been staring out the window all day Maybe we use the same words and we mean different things And maybe when I leave this town, you won’t depart with me Maybe the promise of a better day can’t put the wind beneath your wings But I know tomorrow’s okay if you just get on your feet Just get on your feet Can you call this night a blessing if, for me, it is a curse? Can you try a thousand different paths, and can you tell me which is worst? Are you ever gonna listen if these words all sound rehearsed? Or will you try to drown them out, like every quench-resistant thirst? Just because you hear, it doesn’t mean you’re listening I keep saying, saying, saying the same old thing Baby, what do I say to make you understand? I want you in my life, my love, oh, won’t you be my man? I don’t know all the things I keep on fucking up, trying, please, please Maybe we use the same words and we mean different things And maybe when I leave this town, you won’t depart with me Maybe the promise of a better day can’t put the wind beneath your wings But I know tomorrow’s okay if you just get on your feet Just get on your feet You push, you pull, you run away, you drag me in your car I don’t want this love anymore You push, you pull, you run away, you swear you’re gonna change I don’t believe you, I don’t believe you, babe You push, you pull, you run away, you drag me in your car I don’t want this love anymore You push, you pull, you run away, you promise me things will change Maybe we use the same words and we mean different things And maybe when I leave this town, you won’t depart with me Maybe the promise of a better day can’t put the wind beneath your wings But I know tomorrow’s okay if you just get on your feet Just get on your feet Just get on your

Have you heard? Have you heard? Oh, everybody thinks about it, But no one says a word About the boy who felt too much And the girl who never meant it They couldn’t take the time Or deal with all the distance We’ve got stories that we can’t tell other people Because they don’t make sense to anyone else They’ve never been quite close enough And they’re probably better off They’re probably better off Now you’ll return from time to time And I’ll see you when you’re here There’s a burden in believing But it’s a burden that I’ll bear You asked me how I felt About everything else And I’m not sure So I said that I don’t know Now we’ve got stories that we can’t tell other people Because they don’t make sense to anyone else They’ve never been quite close enough And they’re probably better off They’re probably better off They’re better off Now we’ve got stories that we can’t tell other people Because they don’t make sense to anyone else They’ve never been quite close enough And they’re probably better off They’re probably better off

Remember when we climbed the hill to find our way back home And away from here was all that we could see? With our backs to the fire, we could be our own shadows But the back of you is to the back of me So, go on and break your heart If you think it’ll make you better And tell everyone you know Even if they’ll never care So, go on, go on, you just go So, go on, go on, go on So, go on, go on, you know you want to So, go on, go on, go on I slipped a note into your pocket on my way out of the door And I asked you not to read it, and up and down you swore That it didn’t even matter, and you didn’t even care But doubts are creeping up on me that that note could still be there So, go on and break your heart If you think it’ll make you better And tell everyone you know Even if they’ll never care So, go on, go on, you just go So, go on, go on, go on So, go on, go on, you know you want to So, go on, go on, go on Well, I’ve written every sight and every sound down on the paper Like I’ve seen and heard them all with my own eyes and ears But I’ve never seen the world in the way you swear that you have I’ve never seen it all so clear So, go on and break your heart If you think it’ll make you better And tell everyone you know Even if they’ll never care So, go on, go on, you just go So, go on, go on, go on So, go on, go on, you know you want to So, go on, go on, go on

Used To Me 05:26
You said you were used to me You said that you’d know my heart Well, I’m just full of nervous energy And I’m only falling apart I’m only falling apart Promise to take me for granted Promise me I’m something you’ll keep Hidden like that stone in your pocket Never too far from reach I want you to be my forgiveness That silent, understanding gaze And if I’m just a familiar episode Well, that’s alright by me You said you were used to me You said that you’d know my heart Well, I’m just full of nervous energy And I’m only falling apart I’m only falling apart I hope you’re comfortable in the south And you think of me from time to time Maybe I’ll admit that I miss you Or maybe I’ll keep saying I’m fine I think you should visit more often But I’ll probably just leave you alone Because it’s easier to give it all up It’s easier to let you go You said you were used to me You said that you’d know my heart Well, I’m just full of nervous energy And I’m only falling apart I’m only falling apart You said you were used to me You said that you’d know my heart Well, I’m just full of nervous energy And I’m only falling apart I’m only falling apart

I can already tell this year is only getting worse Because the past mistakes that brought me here can never be reversed And, if you can keep me honest, maybe you can keep me sane ‘Cause the lying insecurities keep filling up my brain And I can’t say with sincerity that I’m anything I am But all I want to say is that I think I understand Am I crazy to ask if I’m crazy? Am I right when I say I’m alright? Well, all that I know is that I’m never quite alone ‘Cause these thoughts keep me company all night Now I’m more at home away from home than I’ve ever been before And the silence don’t unsettle me anymore And I can’t say with sincerity that I’m anything I am But all I want to say is that I think I understand Am I crazy to ask if I’m crazy? Am I right when I say I’m alright? Well, all that I know is that I’m never quite alone ‘Cause these thoughts keep me company all night And I can’t say with sincerity that I’m anything I am And I can’t say with sincerity that I’m anything I am And I can’t say with sincerity that I’m anything I am And I can’t say with sincerity that I’m anything I am Am I crazy to ask if I’m crazy? Am I right when I say I’m alright? Well, all that I know is that I’m never quite alone ‘Cause these thoughts keep me company all night All that I know Never quite alone Thoughts keep me company all night All that I know Never coming home Thoughts keep me company all

You’re feeling low, you don’t know which way to turn You’re looking for the rhymes and reasons You don’t know why you wear your heart on your sleeve So other people can see the lesions You’re looking for a light in the dark ‘Cause you feel like you’ve got nowhere to go You’re looking for some kind of a spark Well then, all you need to know Turn away from the darkness that’s inside you Realize it’s not sadness that defines you Don’t get down when things don’t go the way they should Just look around and you’ll realize that life is good That life is good Well, here we are, we’re at the turn of the tide Pick up the pace and keep your eyes open Something’s calling from somewhere deep inside Telling you to come out of the ocean You’ve been looking for a light in the dark Now you feel like you’ve got somewhere to go You’re the one who’s making the brightest spark So, come on and let it show Turn away from the darkness that’s inside you Realize it’s not sadness that defines you Don’t get down when things don’t go the way they should Just look around and you’ll realize that life is good That life is good Turn away from the darkness that’s inside you Realize it’s not sadness that defines you Don’t get down when things don’t go the way they should Just look around and you’ll realize that life is good Turn away from the darkness that’s inside you Realize it’s not sadness that defines you Don’t get down when things don’t go the way they should Just look around and you’ll realize that life is good That life is good
