Intro 01:20

College 02:47
Your cell phone battery had died and we almost got into a fight because I forgot the way back home. We drove around for hours with your feet up on the dashboard. It was the last time that I didn't feel alone. You said "Take me away from here. I don't want to miss you when you go." Things are getting crazy and I'm afraid of what the future might hold. Distance proved to be too much and I guess true love was not enough. You seemed to find another man. You said move on don't wait for you. A lot has changed and you changed too, but I remember the first time I held your hand. Come on and show me what you're made of. Honey, I'm skin and bones. Don't forget you left me waiting for you to come home.

So My Type 03:24
My friends keep telling me there's a light at the end of this tunnel, and god, I hope they're right. I always change my mind. You were never a good idea, but the way you moved always seemed so right. Maybe you were right. I'm just saying this because maybe I'm all wrong. I'll try to forget your name. You can rearrange your words in the worst ways. You never loved me in the first place. Timing so insignificant. The right words never made a difference. No, they never made a difference. But the wrong words always did. Can't come up with a good excuse. Tell me why I should believe you. Lying through your teeth, man, I can see it in you're eyes. I'm just some combination of bad intentions, desperation really did a number on me for the last time. Holy shit. This could be perfect. Oh my god, you're so my type.

When this sets in don't forget you left me with something in my state of mind and a bad dream. I saw your eyes blink a few too many times. Think tonight's the night we die. Please tell me this is all just a bad dream and I'm still sleeping. Could you tell me the truth. These lines write out another story, and I'm sorry, but you won't get the best of me. This changes my perspective on everything now I'm trying to wake back up from this bad dream. They took everything from me. When this sets in don't forget you left me with something in my state of mind and a bad dream. I hope you think of my face when your heart feels vacant. Singing sad songs alone in your basement. I wish this didn't mean so much to me. I'm still sleeping. I wish this didn't mean so much to me.

I watched the rain fall from our roof and you saw the writing on the wall. If the clouds never break, never settle again, I'll keep the doors locked and we can never pretend that I heard the sirens at our door. I'm not ready. I'm engulfing all the things we left for nothing. This is what I want and tha'ts enough for me. I'm dying to stay so just let me be. My heart is in place and now I can see everything. The attic flooded within days. We lived on islands washed ashore. When they found us, I looked pale and left searching for food. When the days got shorter, they were already through and they came and took us both away. Above the surface it gets cold. The light grows brighter. We get old. Our kingdom has been taken away. We're safe, but miss it all the same.

Brother 04:34
I had another one of those dreams last night. I guess it's no surprise that you weren't there. I had to get up and go outside, hold my breath so I could get some air. I saw the cars crash. I saw the shards of glass. Heavy metals start to dance. I saw your body in slow motion, and you never had a chance. The blood of my brother says I won't be another one of his old mistakes. For my mother's and my father's sake. The growing frustration has given me nothing but a heart I can't replace. I'll save it for another day. I won't let you down. I had another one of those dreams last night where I die, and no one was around. Tried to make it home on the red eye with something in my state of mind. I never heard a sound. I saw the cars crash. I saw the shards of glass. Heavy metals start to dance. I saw your body in slow motion, and you never had a chance. I won't let you down again. I swear to god I saw you die last night. I'm so scared. I thought I saw you die last night.
