Remember When

Do you remember the last time
You left it all up to chance
Do you remember the hopeful little boy
Who just wanted to make people dance
Do you remember the first night
Your dreams flickered like a match
You gave up all that you once claimed to love
Now you're dying to get something back
Guess I'll go back to the real life
These dreams afraid that they can't
A world where purpose is chosen not made
But I've never been one to stick to a plan

A World Without You

I cut my mind on a blade named realism
And all my thoughts started rolling on the floor
Hard to tell when you can't find your beginning
What your finish line might have in store
Well if your mind is a canvas but your paint's dried out and your picture's fallen to the floor
And if the mind that chose you got you one step closer to taking off out the door
And if your right brain thinking makes you feel like sinking in a world with no remorse
We both know
The world can't go on without you
That world would be bored
I lost my hope to a thief named pessimism
And all my dreams started running out the door
Hard to wait on your own so never ending
When you don't know what you're waiting for
Well if your mind is a canvas but your paint's dried out and your picture's fallen to the floor
And if the mind that chose you got you one step closer to taking off out the door
And if your right brain thinking makes you feel like sinking in a world with no remorse
We both know
The world can't go on without you
That world would be bored
They all keep talking around me
A voice outside my head
They all keep saying they found me
A man that's left for dead
They all keep talking around me
A voice outside my head
They all keep saying they found me
A man that's left for dead
Well if your mind is a canvas but your paint's dried out and your picture's fallen to the floor
And if the mind that chose you got you one step closer to taking off out the door
And if your right brain thinking makes you feel like sinking in a world with no remorse
We both know
The world can't go on without you
That world would be bored

Doubts

We've broken down the masses
The system's overblown
Did you expect this when you cherished money over home
A divine love for hate
With just a side of fear and doubt
How much more will our lives burn until we learn
That you weren't born hateful
Just chose to live that way
The string's not ripped in half
It's just a little frain
So I'm giving it up cause I've learned is there's no benefit to doubts
Just a bunch of broken words you wish weren't stuck inside your mouth
And I'm taking it back all I've done in vain and all the hate and lies I've told
Cause expressed you will mature but bottled up you'll just grow old
We've lost all sense of judgement
With nothing left to cheer
A world where some would rather die cause life for them means fear
When time is not eternal
And your end is drawing near
Would you look back on life and wonder why it was
That you weren't born hateful
Just chose to live that way
The scars while eternal well they always seem to fade
So I'm giving it up cause I've learned is there's no benefit to doubts
Just a bunch of broken words you wish weren't stuck inside your mouth
And I'm taking it back all I've done in vain and all the hate and lies I've told
Cause expressed you will mature but bottled up you'll just grow old
You weren't born hateful
Don't choose to live that way
And when we've lost all sight is when we'll truly see
So I'm giving it up cause I've learned is there's no benefit to doubts
Just a bunch of broken words you wish weren't stuck inside your mouth
And I'm taking it back all I've done in vain and all the hate and lies I've told
Cause expressed you will mature but bottled up you'll just grow old

Alone in the Rain

Packed up the books in boxes
Broken love songs for a girl from a boy
And though the memories aren't truly forgotten
They fade like a burning polaroid
Threw out the dozen roses
Fallen soldiers from a love that was lost
Moved out from your apartment
With all the memories that I wished I forgot
Like when I walked you home in the pouring rain
We took shelter underneath the bridge
It was the moment I asked if you feel the same
You pulled me close and then whispered in my ear
I always thought that my heart wouldn't phase me
There's something I can't ignore you amaze me
We laughed and we cried and I kissed her goodbye but today
I'm standing alone in the rain
Threw out your favourite records
Cause every song that's played reminds me of you
And I heard you're doing better
You give your love to somebody new
I'm to blame no doubt about it
I hope he brings you all the joy I never did
And though I don't deserve this
Please recall not who I was but what I did
Like when I walked you home in the pouring rain
We took shelter underneath the bridge
It was the moment I asked if you feel the same
You pulled me close and then whispered in my ear
I always thought that my heart wouldn't phase me
There's something I can't ignore you amaze me
We laughed and we cried and I kissed her goodbye but today
I'm standing alone in the rain
When I walked you home in the pouring rain
We took shelter underneath the bridge
It was the moment I asked if you feel the same
You pulled me close and then whispered in my ear
I always thought that my heart wouldn't phase me
There's something I can't ignore you amaze me
We laughed and we cried but the hardest goodbye is the one where he's taking my place
But...
I hope he walks you home in the pouring rain
And when you're sheltered underneath the bridge
He's gonna lean in and ask if you feel the same
You'll pull him close and then whisper in his ear
I always thought that my heart wouldn't phase me
There's something I can't ignore you amaze me
You'll laugh and you'll cry and you'll kiss him goodbye don't mind me
I'm just standing alone in the rain
