lyrics

If I’m being honest, I’m thinking about myself
I’ve been here too long
I’ve been here too long

Familiar, how it aches
Storm’s at the door and I don’t know how to feel
Take it like this, then, I need a friend
I’m thinking that I’m not the only one

And all my lies are going over me
Am I thinking about them
Or am I just thinking about me?

Jealous once, just bitter now
I do believe I got it all figured out
There was a saint on my uniform
Words that you used were like cuneiform

I gave my life away
It’s too late
I’m getting deeper in my hate
Gave my life away
It’s too late
It was over before eighth grade

And all my life I’m going over it
Was it in the summer when it went bad?
Yelled at my sister in a hotel room

Yeah, you were right, look at me now
I can’t believe I got it all figured out
There was a saint on my uniform
Words that you used were like cuneiform

I gave my life away
It’s too late
I’m getting deeper in my hate
Gave my life away
It’s too late
It was over before eighth grade
