SINGLED OUT
I think that all the years we shared were proof enough To extend my hand and help you I know that getting started can be rough If you smile You seem grateful I felt good about myself That's until the day you show me You told me anybody else... Why'd you have to go? And make me say these things about you Why'd you have to turn around? After all that we've been through I figured all the memories were proof enough To let me open your eyes For the people you think hold your trust Do you ever smile? And find it shameful, Because you don't know who you are? I am glad you never told me... You needed anybody else What will you do when there's no one to fall back on? I won't be there I've learned my lesson What will you do when there are no friends to fall back on? Because they've all been stepped on

THE STORY SO FAR
I can't remember the time or place, or what you were wearing, it's unclear about how we met, all I know it was the best conversation that I've ever had, to this day I never found someone, with eyes as wide as yours, I've been searching up and down this coast, overlooking what I need the most did you notice I was afraid? I thought I'd run out of things to say, two more hours I took today merciless away, and it starts all over again, the sky will never look the same again, till you show me how it could be, the sky will never look the same again, till you show me how it could be and everything else is irrelevant, to the story so far, a coincidence that you look like her from a far, is it true that you like to sleep alone? Or is it fun to just tell everyone? Did you notice that I was afraid? I thought I'd run out of things to say two more hours I took today merciless away, and it starts all over again the sky will never look the same again, till you show me how it could be the sky will never look the same again till you show me how it could be and when the world turns over ill keep my ears to the wall and when the world turns over ill keep my feet straight on the ground did u notice I was afraid? I thought I'd run out of things to say, two more hours I took today merciless away, and it starts all over again, the sky will never look the same again till you show me how it could be the sky will never look the same again till you show me how it could be
