Maybe this tour wouldn’t seem so short-lived If I had someone to come home to, but I don’t You can’t hid behind those big blue eyes Your crooked smile, or all the lies The things you did, we all saw through You thought you were smooth But we all knew I can’t help that I don’t like Bright Eyes (I want a lover I don’t have to love) Or that you hate New Found Glory (you insist to pull me down) I guess that should have been a sign from the start That you weren’t the right girl for me Another week means another song, another lyric daily Broken hearts and brand new starts are all I think about lately And I know one day our paths will cross You’ll be on his arm it’ll bring back all the thoughts I can’t help that I don’t like Bright Eyes (I want a lover I don’t have to love) Or that you hate New Found Glory (you insist to pull me down) I guess that should have been a sign from the start That you weren’t the right girl for me These matching tattoos aren’t even worth the ink It’s easy to see that this anchor has made me sink I can’t help that I don’t like Bright Eyes (I want a lover I don’t have to love) Or that you hate New Found Glory (you insist to pull me down) I guess that should have been a sign from the start That you weren’t the right girl for me

It strikes as odd that the hardest things to say are what mean the most at the end of the day for every high there was always a low you've been here and although it may not seem like something to you it's that something that got me through can't put a price on the memories made but time changes and people tend to fade away with no effort you've always been there helping me through and going no where I'll sing the words I can't say (you're nothing would mend my everything) With hopes you'll hear them some day and know I'd change so much and do things different if I could just have you here I spent the best years of my life with only you by my side foolish pride and bad decisions destroyed something I didn't know I had I'm thankful for every moment spent with you so disappointed that I didn't see it through I didn't treat you how you should be treated and now I'm left broken and defeated can't put a price on the memories made but time changes and people tend to fade away with no effort you've always been there helping me through and going no where I'll sing the words I can't say (you're nothing would mend my everything) With hopes you'll hear them some day and know I'd change so much and do things different if I could just have you here so thanks for nothing, thanks for everything thanks, thanks for nothing

I can’t really say I thought I knew What I didn’t do And what made you Decide that we were through Maybe you thought that I would stick around And try harder to be someone that I am not But I wasn’t good enough for you then And I am too good now (You’re still too good now) There’s nothing that I wouldn’t do If you called now I would run I was second best to you When I held you second to none Happiness? No choice but apathy Why did I feel for you what you didn’t feel for me? All I want to do is not give a fuck I tried so hard and it sucks I still don’t understand what I did so wrong And that he did so right My comprehension doesn’t matter When he’s the one that’s holding you tight There’s nothing that I wouldn’t do If you called now I would run I was second best to you When I held you second to none I can only hope that one day you’ll realize all I wanted to be Was everything you need There’s nothing that I wouldn’t do If you called now I would run I was second best to you When I held you second to none

Looking back on the past I can’t help but wonder What happened to those times we said that we’d always remember? Been through hell and back, all together And now you’re nothing but another stranger You can’t ask for help if you won’t help yourself Wasting time has never been good for your health So you move on and I guess so will I But in the end, I’m the one who tried After this long I thought the pieces would mend But I wouldn’t break and you wouldn’t bend Maybe one day I’ll reach out to you again But for now take this as my means to an end Words from your mouth spilled out onto the ground Easy to see that they’re meaningless now As worthless as the clarity found All those nights we spent just driving around After this long I thought the pieces would mend But I wouldn’t break and you wouldn’t bend Maybe one day I’ll reach out to you again But for now take this as my means to an end I reached out and tried to patch things up And you pushed me away like someone you can’t trust Egos can really fuck things up So I drew a hard line and said enough is enough After this long I thought the pieces would mend But I wouldn’t break and you wouldn’t bend

The best days we’ve ever seen Have been spent broke and hungry with no place to sleep It may be hard for our friends and family to see But there’s no place that I’d rather be Days never seem to end when you’re waiting at home Counting down the seconds til you’re on the road It doesn’t matter where we end up or go On the stage is the only place you’ll find me saying There’s no place like home, NO PLACE LIKE HOME And now I look back and it’s hard to see how I never took a dive or even a bow And this is what we’re about And we’re not stopping now Days never seem to end when you’re waiting at home Counting down the seconds til you’re on the road It doesn’t matter where we end up or go On the stage is the only place you’ll find me saying There’s no place like home, NO PLACE LIKE HOME With no money we’ll somehow make it through All these sleepless nights still thinking about you With no money to spend we’ll somehow make it through All these sleepless nights that I’ve spent thinking of you
