blank

oh you dont know what its like
to pace the floors til your soles are gone and,
i've been patiently praying,
no hoping, for life's wings to sweep me away,
oh for life's wings to fly me away.

and here we are, going no where
passing off blank stares

this is why i've been staking out this situation for so long
there's nothing else to do,
but let this unravel until
you decide exactly what we need
and i'm so scared
i cant even contemplate
the words spilling from your mouth

and here we are, spiraling down these stairs
going no where
now i realize
those blank stares spoke more than our mouths ever did

inverse

its no wonder i sit here and wonder
just what's going through your head.
and why its been 3 long weeks
since anything has been said
and we all just wish to be inside the other's thoughts
because the center of all attention,
is truly where we all belong.
someone show me the path to take from here
there's just so many
and i'd hate to take a wrong turn,
for it will most certainly crush me.
the lives of everyone intertwine
like a cliche indie movie, and the life of God above me.
so please show me whats going on inside that pretty little head
are the gears all turning and working just fine
or are you caught up on something that happens to be mine
oh this rainy weather is probably for the better
because its harder for us to see you cry

subtitles

these days render a false sense of security
whatever that may be, i hope you clutch it as close to your chest
as i used to hold you to mine
i'm almost certain we cant hold on forever,
but these days are bringing me more
than i'd ever dreamed of wishing for
i feel just as bad as you do
and there are times when it seems like i miss you
but believe me when i say that gone isnt a temporary absence.
i'm slowly being eaten from the inside out
and everyone's annoying me slowly
i'm losing my hair and the stress just keeps mounting
and you just keep laughing.
i'll just keep trying
and you'll just keep denying that i ever cared
