This seam is weak, I'm pulling at it.
Tearing them away from her and I
but I'm having second thoughts,
not on us, on this dream,
on this decision that I made at 10 years old.
I haven't worked my ass off just to give up young.
I know my friends are counting on me
to give my tears, my time, my blood.
And I've made room for her in my heart
but left enough for songs to stay.
Left enough for songs to stay.
I'm scared to fucking death to rip this shit apart,
to give up everything I know,
Can't give up everything I know.
But I'm sick of living in shit,
and I know she won't want to live like this.
She says it's good to go away, it breaks my heart,
and the bigger piece says "stay," but I can't stay.
No I can't stay. Woah oh oh oh.
I haven't worked my ass off just to get a job.
I know my friends are counting on me
to give my tears my time my blood.
And I've made room for her in my heart
but left enough for songs to stay.
Left enough for songs to stay.
I hope she'll stay. I'm a hypocrite, a bastard.
Just like everyone that I despise.
And we both know if it came down to it,
I couldn't leave either if I tried.
I don't want to make the best of it.
Do I grow up or make it happen?
Give it up just to be "happy?"
Not me, Fuck No! It's these four chords that let me know,
these four chords that let me know I'm not alone,
I'm not alone, not me, fuck no
