Lyrics

maybe its time for change
maybe we like this game
tell me how to feel
cause i forget whats real

but i don't want to be mad
and i don't want to be sad
so i don't tell the truth
yeah i lie for you

we let it go again
we like to pretend
like cigarettes and wine
its okay, just not all the time

but i don't want to be mad
and i don't want to be sad
so i don't tell the truth
yeah i lie for you

its lonely on a one way street
we walk alone, try to meet
maybe im stong, maybe im weak
but your kiss is bittersweet

but i don't want to be mad
and i don't want to be sad
so i don't tell the truth
yeah i lie for you

it feels too late to change
what's really to gain?
i lost myself to you
that part is true

but i don't want to be mad
and i don't want to be sad
so i don't tell the truth
yeah i lie for you

Lie for You

I Fall (Acoustic version)

Lyrics You said its hard to be nice
and i sure paid a price, cause you pour salt in my wounds everyday
and Im gonna have to find my own way
cause its easier than hoping that you'll stay

and you told me i'd never make it on my own
but ya underestimated my backbone
and you told me i'd miss you every day and maybe thats true 
but i can live with the gray
I can live with the gray

you said its hard to be nice
even to the love of your life
but i do my best to be kinda
and even though you're gone now
i still got this mess you left behind

and you told me i'd never make it on my own
but ya underestimated my backbone
and you told me i'd miss you every day and maybe thats true 
but i can live with the gray
I can live with the gray

Lyrics
And I know there's a place we were meant to be if you were still like you and I was still someone like me...

I gave you a deadline, a mark in time 
thought i'd always be with you but now maybe were through
and you told me a story
about how love needs somewhere to go
were you talking about me, I don't know
but no one loves you like and i don't have much to show
i don't like being lonely when im not alone

chorus
i know there a place were meant to be
if you were still like you and i was still someone like me
we could find it together
and never say never
forget all the pressure
of what were supposed to measure and supposed to prove
we could find that place, were meant to be
where i can just love you and you can just love me
if you were still like you and i was still someone, someone like me
If you were still like you and I was still someone like me

Verse 2
we took a morning walk, it was brisk and cold
and we held hands and told
our old stories, about who chased who
and of course it was me but we always say it was you
I wondered would we be here again
next year when its cold

chorus
i know there a place were meant to be
if you were still like you and i was still someone like me
we could find it together
and never say never
forget all the pressure
of what were supposed to measure and supposed to prove
we could find that place, were meant to be
where i can just love you and you can just love me
if you were still like you and i was still someone, someone like me
If you were still like you and I was still someone like me

Someone Like Me

you are my favorite kind of broken
the kind maybe i'll fix
and i'll be the one who found when you were sick, sick, sick
and i'll take all the credit
when you finally stand on your shaky legs and look around 

you are my favorite kind of broken
I take your good for own
I take what I need to fortify my skin and bones, bones, bones
don't try to get better
i will make you sorry, i will make you pay

i'll expose your flaws, reign confusion like a fog
spend my time fussing over, following you
til you know that are beautiful but broken
through and through

say we'll stay together
be my chosen one 
and I'll burn for you with the heat of a thousand suns
lonely, lost and alone
is my favorite kind of broken
you are my favorite kind of broken

Favorite Kinda Broken

Lyrics
I hear footsteps on the hardword floor
They whine and creak and I'm so bleak I can't make it to the door
Im in the back room, baying to a lonely moon, keeping busy, 
Keeping score, I hear it all 

I hear your sister again on the phone
She's crying getting louder, well past the hour, always so alone
Another heartache, mistake and another man another plan, gone wrong
I hear it all

Chorus
I play deaf, I play blind
I don't say a word
Let at all burn
Evey whisper, every fall
Trust me I hear it aaaa, aaa, all
I hear it all


I hear you in the bathroom, softly cying
You got the water running so I can pretend but I'm lying
Here on the couch, I'm checked out
Medicating with TV and alcohol

Chorus

I Hear it All

Why do you always have your filter on
Are you afraid we will see the real you
its okay, we know your life aint perfect 
and neither was that sunset in Honolulu

Why do you always have your filter on
Are you afraid we will see the real you
We went to high school together, who you trying to fool
I got plenty of wrinkles and greys too

Grass can only be so green
Sky can only be so blue
Flowers can only come in colors in nature
even in Matchapitcuh, Timbuktu, 

Why do you always have your filter on
Are you afraid we will see the real you
You don’t need them bunny ears or whiskers
I prefer the human version of you

Why do you always have your filter on
Are you afraid we will see the real you
Being real is cool again
I saw it on Instagram, so I know its true
