"Just be yourself; you are wonderful"


It's always dark in your room
Reminds me of hopelessness
Not enough air to get me through
But still I slept days in your bed
Praying one day you'd hold me
So close I wouldnt feel dead
I loved you too long
I loved you too hard
Now I wear the colors
Of destruction all around
This already tired town

To make you mine how I tried
My touch was not good enough
So I'd stand back and I'd cry
All alone on the top of our hill
Someday I'll begin again
But here time stands so still

And all the silent promises you never kept
Hang over my head like a lifelong tease
And every I'm sorry you had you spent
On a girl broken but not too broken to dream

I loved you too long
I loved you too hard
Now i wear the colors
Of destruction all around
This already tired town
