drunk and alone at night
i find solitude in your name
drunk and alone at night
i feel no pain
i remember you're still living
and i’m breathing on the same world
it gives me hope
you could still be my girl

not used to the changing tides
so high at the dawn
so low in the dark
the moon shines down past the beach
leading me adrift into the moonlight
until the submerged sun leaps from the sea
and the moon fades into blue
there i find myself alone in an ocean of doubts
ready to paddle back home

devotion to the idea of your mystique
the drama you pretend that doesn't matter
pluck my strings one more time
let it ring through my thoughts
never leave me alone
never tell me who you really are

i'm stuck
not free falling but forever falling
nowhere to begin or end
i don't know how i got here
its lonely

love can be real and love can be fake
cause there's only one word for the feeling you create
inside of the person who left themselves open
to the words you have spoken
to leave them mended or broken
so when you think you can fake with the best
when your heart skips no beats when she touches your chest
she's there for one reason, to fill some emptiness
she there for you, but you couldn't care less
the butterflies in your stomach have all lost their wings
you know you have lost the most marvelous thing
you took love, and made it boring

love can be real and love can be fake
cause there's only one word for the feeling i create
inside of the person who left themselves open
to the words i have spoken
to leave them mended or broken
so when i think i can fake with the best
when my heart skips no beats when she touches my chest
she's there for one reason, to fill some emptiness
she there for me, but i couldn't care less
the butterflies in my stomach have all lost their wings
i now know i have lost the most marvelous thing
i took love, and made it boring

i don't believe in love
but i believe in rock and roll
and how music can save your mortal soul
i don't know how to dance
but i can feel the flow

didn't you know
couldn't you tell
all the things i was trying to tell you in my head
but instead
you ignored
and got bored
by all the thing i actually said
thats not me
couldn't we
start all over again just one last time
you could be mine
but no
its not so
you’re gone away
so far away
its just me
quietly
with all the things i was trying to tell you in my head
i should go to bed
but instead
i’ll ignore
walk out my door
and get bored
by saying all the things i actually said
in my head
