The sun is bleeding through the blinds
we murdered yet another night
I close my eyes and swallow pain
my boday aches like Saturday
I'm one to watch and you're one to say
"I never really cared"

and I'm not coming home tonight
so don't wait up
cause I bet it never gets this cold in California

My eyes are sensitive to sight
and my skin burns under the light
I shut my eyes and sound the end
of what I thought was my best bet
and all that's left is left unsaid
but I never really cared

and I'm not coming home tonight
so don't wait up
cause I bet it never gets this cold in California

I'll count headlights on the way back home
each one holds a wish and a secret toll
of all the girls who twist my thoughts in ways
that make me smile and sufficate

and I'm not coming home tonight
so don't wait up
cause I bet it never gets this cold in California



So so what happens in your room?
when you're all alone with me at home
going crazy over you

behind these bedroom walls
everynight I sing along with all her favorite songs
I sing until my voice is gone
until my lungs are bleedin'
tell me you don't miss these brown eyes
and that you're not in love

I hate hate the way you look at me
where's the pills for that thing that you call
"sweepin' me off my feet"
it's girls like you that keep open graves
for boys like me
that keep themselves locked up for days

behind these bedroom walls
everynight I sing along with all her favorite songs
I sing until my voice is gone
until my lungs are bleedin'
tell me you don't miss these brown eyes
and that you're not in love

Take this stupid heart
I know it's all you ever want me for
and I hope you keep it close
so everyone knows that it's all because of you
that I'm dead to the world

I won't wait, I won't wait, I won't wait
I won't wait for you to make me stop

behind these bedroom walls
everynight I sing along with all her favorite songs
I sing until my voice is gone
until my lungs are bleedin'
tell me you don't miss these brown eyes
and that you're not in love

Take this stupid heart
I know it's all you ever want me for
and I hope you keep it close
so everyone knows that it's all because of you
that I'm dead to the world



Tonight I'd rather be in love
rather it was you flowing through my blood
scraping through my veins my everything
and you cling to every thread
that clings to me

I live in notes and photographs
and everything I'm holding back
but you're the words that weren't enough
you remind me of a song I used to love

I couldn't call you if I wanted
my fingers couldn't work if they tried
they're so sore from keeping crossed
and tracing over cuts on my worthless arms
if I said "I hated the feeling" it would be a lie

I live in notes and photographs
and everything I'm holding back
but you're the words that weren't enough
you remind me of a song I used to love

I live in notes and photographs
and everything I'm holding back
but you're the words that weren't enough
you remind me of a song I used to love

you remind me of a song I used to love



Did you know you were the girl
that made me hate blond hair and I
just can't wait to make you hate me a little more
and everynight that I spend
with bloodshot eyes and no end
and enough excuses here to bury me alive

so here I am
a love worn masochist
with hearts carved straight across my chest
letting the carpet soak up all that's left to give

Will you swear you won't be sleepin'
cause I can't begin to dream to shut my eyes
and I'm biting bullets and watching phones
for no apparent reason
and I don't think that I'll make it out alive

Did you know you were the girl
that made love a four letter word
I just can't wait to make you hate me a little more
you made my head a mess
with the life of doctors notes
and ink blot tests
and enough empty bottles to bury me alive

so here I am
a love worn masochist
with hearts carved straight across my chest
letting the carpet soak up all that's left to give

Will you swear you won't be sleepin'
cause I can't begin to dream to shut my eyes
and I'm biting bullets and watching phones
for no apparent reason
and I don't think that I'll make it out alive

When a smile is a close call
and my words caught in my throat
I'm an inch away from dying
and I'm lucky if I choke

When a smile is a close call(I wear my heart)
and my words caught in my throat (on my sleeve)
I'm an inch away from dying (and you'll still)
and I'm lucky if I choke (walk right by me)

so here I am
a love worn masochist
with hearts carved straight across my chest
letting the carpet soak up all that's left to give

Will you swear you won't be sleepin'
(I wear my heart on my sleeve)
cause I can't begin to dream to shut my eyes
(and you'll still walk right by me)
and I'm biting bullets and watching phones
(I wear my heart on my sleeve)
for no apparent reason
(and you'll still walk right by me)
and I don't think that I'll make it out alive
no, I don't think that I'll make it out alive
