We're both still suffocating Waiting for something, waiting for nothing It's what I feared the most We're surrounded by lights Each one is like a fucking ghost And each one shines out Showing what used to be They never stayed for too long Where they fade so quickly, We used to shine so bright But we're so fucking sick of new beginnings So fucking sick of this fresh new page If we go to sleep now, we don't need to see another day Never asked for this clean break We never need a brand new start I never needed a brand new start Just a different heart I used to think about where we'd be Could we meet outside of what we used to be The summer fades so quickly I used to think about where we'd be Could we meet outside of everything The summer that fades so quickly It loses all of it's beauty Green turns to red then turns to gold, And the summer air it grows so cold

I know there's a silence that will never be filled The smiles that cover up the scars that never healed There's still a sadness that's engrained on our hearts So unprepared for it all but longing for those false starts It's like nothing we ever had dreamed Pushing everything until it burst at the seams Lost air, found in each other's lungs Listing all our faults to all the loudest songs We keep losing our way So tired of saying goodbye We'll just keep singing those sad old songs Never been more scared of the future We've spread ourselves too fucking thin Holding on to this dead weight We're quickly losing everything I know there is a silence that will never be filled The smiles that cover up the scars that never healed There's still a sadness that's engrained on our hearts So unprepared for it all but longing those false starts See the sky about to rain It's the only thing that makes me feel safe Standing under the greyest skies The rain falls so hard, we can open our eyes This will never be perfect Too many tears left staining our skin This will never be perfect But I'd rather never wake up, Than go back to how things were Keep singing the loudest songs Keep repeating those sad old songs Because this will never be perfect This will never be fucking perfect Just keep singing the loudest songs Keep repeating those sad old songs We'll keep repeating those sad old songs
