lyrics

a couple days before my own
a couple months before july
i prepare myself at home
for what always comes this time

just a couple hundred pictures
of pretty girls online
all going to coachella
to get drunk and do a line

i don’t wanna get that high
i don’t wanna get that high

i’ve been alone a couple months
and mostly i have been fine
except writing’s gotten harder
and i’ve no love to pass the time

and it hurts to get too young and feel
older at the same time
thats the twisted symphony
that plays inside my mind

i dont wanna fall behind
i dont wanna fall behind

i miss the one i always do
for almost half a decade now
i’ve been in love with you
but nothing ever changes
and we stay always confused

i know it could be envy
i admit it looks like fun
all dressed up like the devil
singing we were born to run

i found my kind of freedom
and of course i let it go
came back here to pay my dues
and sit in bed alone

while my friends are on the road
my friends are on the road

and i miss the one i always do
for almost half a decade now
i’ve been in love with you
but nothing ever changes
and we stay always confused

but you say you’re alright
i wish you’d lie to me
tell me you wish you had died
in some awful forest fire
and anna i would join you there
I’ve got too much on my mind

its been a while since I’ve felt good
somehow nothings like it should be
i don’t think i have been happy
since the last year that you touched me
