lyrics

at two a.m. i'm staring out my window
how did this semester go so fast?
it's not that i regret the past four months
i'm just more focused on the shadows that it cast
but i learned something this year that won't leave with december
it's a growing change you feel, not something you remember
so tell me what it's like to live a life behind those iron bars that have made your heart so tender

at two a.m. i'm staring out my window
how did this semester go so fast?
it's not that i regret the past four months
i'm just more focused on the shadows that it cast
our bodies took the shapes of cold ice sculptures
motionless, we left no trail behind
now that i've figured directions, it's time for me to figure out my mind

but i've thought it through
i lost my sense of self when i met you
maybe it wasn't there from the start, but i'd like to pretend
that in my chest there beats an honest heart

where were you when all i was a friend or something i knew i could trust
miles away, i'll crawl into my tent
i'll fall asleep, forgetting about us

you were in between of what i need and what i want
so i'll go grab my acoustic and just for an afternoon, we'll laugh at the sun
we can talk for hours, bring a movie back to my house that we haven't seen
feel like i am chained down to this couch, it's about time i came clean

the running rivers in your veins won't wash away or drown your ugly past
the tributaries flow out through the skin and they flow fast

it's about you, it's about my insides trembling at the thought of being pleasantly happy
i thought i kicked this thing a couple years ago in high school, but it seems that it came back for me
this darkness feeds on grief
