Lyrics:

Verse:
How could you say I didn't put you first?
Lie to my face like you're not the one who hurt me 

Pre:
You can't handle the fact that you fucked this up alone
I won't say I'm sorry 
It's you who did this
Stop changing the story
When we both know

Chorus:
I hate historical fiction 
How could you say you're the victim?
How could you say that I was yours for life
Then tell me I'm not right for you?
Won't let you rewrite us if it's the last thing I do 
If it's the last thing I do

Verse 2:
I thought you got everything you wanted
Why come back now?
Thought you were happier in Boston
(how's that going?)

Pre:
You're just making up reasons to be mad at me so
You don't deal with your feelings
But that's some bullshit
Stop changing the story
When we both know

Chorus:
I hate historical fiction 
How could you say you're the victim?
How could you say that I was yours for life 
Then tell me I'm not right for you?
Won't let you rewrite us if it's the last thing I do 
If it's the last thing I do

Bridge:
You lost the best thing that you ever had
And now you have to live with that

Chorus:
I hate historical fiction 
How could you say you're the victim?
How could you say that I was yours for life 
Then tell me I'm not right for you?
Won't let you rewrite us if it's the last thing I do

Lyrics:

Verse:
I never noticed the way I stand with my toes tilted in until you mentioned it 
You’d laugh and say it was the cutest thing that you’d ever seen
I loved how you made fun of it

Oh no one told me how my ears peek out when my hair is down
Like only you could see 
I kinda wish that you had never even pointed it out 
Cuz now it fuckin bothers me 

Pre:
And now, I hate all the parts of me you thought were good
How, oh how did you notice what I never could

Chorus:
All the small things hurt, cuz you loved them first 
And I’m terrified the next person that I am with won’t notice them at all
Won’t see the things you saw

Verse 2:
People tell me that the next one will find something new 
Like that’ll comfort me 
But I don’t want to believe that after all this time 
There’s still some things you didn’t see 

Pre:
And now, I miss you making all the bad things good 
How, oh how did you notice what I never could 

Chorus:
All the small things hurt, cuz you loved them first 
And I’m terrified the next person that I am with won’t notice them at all 
Won’t see the things you saw
Won't see the things you saw

Bridge:
Can’t look in the mirror without seeing through your eyes 
It’s like my body’s a reflection of the parts you memorized 
Like I’m just a collection of the things that once were mine
So who am I

Chorus:
Now the small things hurt, cuz now I see them first 
And I’m terrified the next person that I am with won’t notice them at all
Won’t see the things you saw
Won’t see the things you saw

Lyrics:

V1:
It's just as bad as I thought it would be
Finding out from someone else that you’re moving on from me
And I heard that there's a picture but I'm too afraid to see
Cuz what if you look happy and she’s prettier than me

Pre:
I woke up in the middle of my nightmare
Have to face the fear you really don’t care
You moved on and found someone it’s not fair
At all

Chorus:
What if now you know that I was never the one
I was just the first one you happened to love
Did you need me to leave for you to find what you want
Did you find what you want?
Did you find what you
Couldn’t see with me
I gave you everything, but
What if all that I was was a trial run?
The one before the one

V2:
I'm alone in bed but I know she’s next to you
Don't know a single thing about her and I hope I never do
Cause I compare everyone to you, and I thought you did that too
But if you did, that means
She’s better than me

Pre2:
I woke up in the middle of my nightmare
Have to face the fear you really don’t care
You moved on and found someone it’s not fair
At all

CH:
What if now you know that I was never the one
I was just the first one you happened to love
Did you need me to leave for you to find what you want
Did you find what you want?
Did you find what you
Couldn’t see with me
I gave you everything, but
What if all that I was was a trial run?
The one before the one

Bridge:
Why does it feel like somebody died
Were you moving on this whole time?
While i’ve been stuck, on the same side

Why does it feel like somebody died
Were you moving on this whole time?
I may not be the one, but you’re mine
You're still mine

CH:
What if now you know that I was never the one
I was just the first one you happened to love
Did you need me to leave for you to find what you want
Did you find what you want?
Did you find what you
Couldn’t see with me
I gave you everything, but
What if all that I was was a trial run?
The one before the one

Lyrics:

Hey
Wanted to give you an update
I moved out to LA 
And I got out of Maine
Did it all without you 
I bet you’d be surprised 
My hair is shorter and it’s dyed
I have a whole new life
So can you tell me why 
It’s still all about you 

And I think I might be broken
You show up in every moment  

Cuz all my favorite things are things we used to do
And every guy is just someone who isn’t you
And every memory that I make just feels like proof
Of what I knew 
That every place I like is just a place you’d love
And 3,000 miles isn't far enough
Cuz there’s no me without you
Only us 
I see your fingerprints on things you’ve never touched 

Oh Oh Oh

Hey
How you doin these days
Am I stuck in your brain
Or is it just insane 
I still dream about you 

And I’m sick of always hopin 
You’ll show up at any moment

Cuz all my favorite things are things we used to do
And every guy is just someone who isn’t you
And every memory that I make just feels like proof
Of what I knew 
That every place I like is just a place you’d love
And 3,000 miles isn't far enough
Cuz there’s no me without you
Only us 
I see your fingerprints on things you’ve never touched 

Oh Oh Oh 

My bed and my car
My couch, my favorite bar
This town the cali beach
My house, down my street 
Every moon and every star
Think i’d still see you on mars  
You’re all over my body
You’re all over the new me 

Cuz all my favorite things are things we used to do
And every guy is just someone who isn’t you
And every memory that I make just feels like proof
Of what I knew 

That every place I like is just a place you’d love
And 3,000 miles isn't far enough
Cuz there’s no me without you
Only us 
I see your fingerprints on things you’ve never touched

Maybe I'm a little masochistic
Cuz I can't write a song without you in it
And it never feels great
Exploiting all this pain
Every single day
Just to relive it

I've used up every way to fit
Five years in a refrain and it
Fucking kills me
That I'm not healing

But I can't stop writing all these songs
Cuz the day I do is the day you're gone

And I know I should be moving on
But the day I do is the day you're gone

And I can tell my mom's a little worried
So I try my best to hide that I'm still hurting
But the second I'm alone
It's the second of September
And you're walking out the door
And I'm stuck here forever

And I've used up every way to fit
My tears in a refrain and it
Fucking kills me
That you've been healing

But I can't stop writing all these songs
Cuz the day I do is the day you're gone

And I know I should be moving on
But the day I do is the day you're gone

Oh
The day I do is the day you're gone
Oh
The day I do is the day you're gone

Maybe it's just in my nature
Every time my pen hits paper
Loving and not letting go
Every time my pen hits paper

But I can't stop writing all these songs
Cuz the day I do is the day you're gone

The Day You're Gone

Lyrics:
Mom's calling
Go pick up the phone
What if something's wrong
Could I make it home
Would it take too long
Stop
She's probably calling just to talk

Quiet down
Oh you're way too loud
I mean look around
They're all talking bout
How they want you out
Stop
All of my racing thoughts

Trapped in my head with all my fears
Again again

I hate it in here
Tattooed inside my eyelids
I can't escape the crisis
The things I'd do for silence
Sell my soul for peace and quiet

Stuck in an echo chamber
My mind is such a traitor
Been ringing in my ears
For years and years
I hate it in here

Oh oh oh

I always
Push and pull away
Everyone I need
I anticipate
That they're gonna leave me
But I'm my worst enemy

Oh, oh my god my worst enemy

And sometimes
It doesn't make sense
How who's in my head
Isn't looking at me when I stare into the mirror
But she's causing all of the tears

I hate it in here
Tattooed inside my eyelids
I can't escape the crisis
The things I'd do for silence
Sell my soul for peace and quiet

Stuck in an echo chamber
My mind is such a traitor
Been ringing in my ears
For years and years
I hate it in here

Oh, oh oh
I hate it in here
Oh, oh oh
I hate it in here

Minds been running, running
All my life
All my life
I've been running, running
From my mind
This whole time

My minds been
Running
All my life
I've been running
From my mind
I hate it in here

Mom's calling
Go pick up the phone
What if something's wrong
Could I make it home
Would it take too long
Stop

Lyrics:
She's so cool
She's so chill
She looks good with her hands
Ya I bet she wakes up
Looking perfect, oh damn
I can't blame you

Ya it hurts like a bitch
That you chose her instead
Didn't know where you went
Now it makes perfect sense
I can't blame you
No I can't blame you

I used to let my world
Revolve around the other girl
But doing that just left me worse
Doing that just fucking hurts

She's great but that don't have to mean
I'm not who I'm supposed to be
Both things can still be true to me
I'm not Vienna
And I don't have to be

Oh I care way too much
I don't go with the flow
Ya I know what I want
And I know when I know
Not a cool girl
And you want a cool girl
You want a cool girl

I used to let my world
Revolve around the other girl
But doing that just left me worse
Doing that just fucking hurts

She's great but that don't have to mean
I'm not who I'm supposed to be
Both things can still be true to me
I'm not Vienna
And I don't have to be

She can be everything you need
I can be more than enough for me
Both things can still be true to me
I'm not Vienna
And I don't have to be

I'm not oh I'm not Vienna
I'm not oh I'm not Vienna
I'm not oh I'm not Vienna
I'm not oh I'm not Vienna

I'm Not Vienna

I have this horrible feeling that something is wrong with me
Cuz each time I let someone in they always decide to leave
So consistently
It happens like clockwork, it all makes a pattern
They love me and need me then leave when my back's turned
Then all that I have's one more reason that something is wrong with me

Oh you love me for being myself
While wishing I was someone else

How am I too much and not enough at the same time
I fit into your life but not enough to keep you in mine
How do the reasons that first made you stay
Turn into reasons why you run away
How am I too much and not enough at the same time

Tell me why I have this horrible feeling that something is wrong with me
And I wish the people who leave would just answer me honestly
Oh it's killing me
Is it that I'm intense
Or I care way too much
Or did all of the novelty just now wear off
Oh there's gotta be a real reason why something is wrong with me

Oh you leave me for being myself
I'm wishing I was someone else

How am I too much and not enough at the same time
I fit into your life but not enough to keep you in mine
How do the reasons that first made you stay
Turn into reasons why you run away
How am I too much and not enough at the same time

Can't be who you want
And who I need
Can't give you my all
And watch you leave
I'm not enough not enough
But I'm still too much
Not enough not enough
But I'm still too much
Not enough not enough
But I'm still too much
Not enough not enough
But I'm still too much

How am I too much and not enough at the same time
I fit into your life but not enough to keep you in mine

Lyrics:
Some random day in 5th grade
When I looked into the mirror
I saw flaws I'd never seen before
Now they were all too clear
I let some dumb boy tell me
All the things that I should hate
But before that day in 5th grade
I just thought I looked okay

One day when I was 15
My best friend of 7 years
She picked a silent fight with me
Before she disappeared
And I was too naive to know
That I had played a part
And for years I blamed myself
Whenever good things fell apart

Oh it's not always been pretty
But it's all a part of living

At 12 I needed who I was at 17
At 17 I needed me at 23
If I could travel back in time
I'd tell myself that it's alright
You'll see
One day you will be
The person that you need

The person that you need

One day when I was 20
I cried on the bathroom floor
Cuz the person that I loved
Just didn't love me anymore
I spent the next three years
Locking my heart inside my chest
Now at 24, I'd tell myself
You'll fall in love again

I still don't know what I'm doing
But I know that I'll get through it

At 12 I needed who I was at 17
At 17 I needed me at 23
If I could travel back in time
I'd tell myself that it's alright
You'll see
One day you will be

The person who is strong enough
Brave enough
Deserving of all the love
Doesn't run
Opens up
Someone you can trust to
Catch your fall
Answer calls
Be there cuz she's been there too

At 12 I needed who I was at 17
At 17 I needed me at 23
If I could go forward in time
I think she'd tell me it's alright
You'll see
One day you will be

I'll see
One day I will be
The person that I need

Lyrics:
This morning
In your bed sheets
When you held me
All I could think about
Is I should enjoy this now

Cuz I know that one morning
You won't hold me
I'll be boring
When all of my new wears off
You tell me that I'm dead wrong

You promise you won't leave
And I try to believe, but

When you're lost in my eyes
The only thing I see
Is how bad it'll hurt when
you lose that love for me

When you touch my body
I just feel the space
The space I know will crush me
When all your feelings fade

The more you show you love me
The more I start to know
It'll kill me when you don't

Don't, don't, don't
don't, don't, don't

One Monday
I'll be over
On your sofa
And I'll tell something's wrong
We haven't kissed in so long

And then I'll ask you what's changed
And then you'll break
Say we need space
I'll watch my fears come true
I won't do what I did for you

You promise you won't leave
And I try to believe, but

When you're lost in my eyes
The only thing I see
Is how bad it'll hurt when
you lose that love for me

When you touch my body
I just feel the space
The space I know will crush me
When all your feelings fade

The more you show you love me
The more I start to know
It'll kill me when you don't

When you don't, when you don't
Oh
It'll kill me when you

Stop holding me like it's the last time
Love me from the sidelines
When you get so tired of me
Tired of me

Stop seeing me like I'm a lifetime
I'll just be a goodbye
When you get so tired of me
Tired of me

When you're lost in my eyes
The only thing I see
Is how bad it'll hurt when
You lose that love for me

When You Don't

I've dreamt this up a million times
Running into you, on some random night
I thought through every way it'd go
The heart attack, the vertigo

Would you hate me, could we even talk
Would it be okay or would you run right off
It's haunted me the last four years
And now it's come to life right here

You're two feet to my left and
My whole world didn't end
No more holding my breath

I'm coming up for air
I'm finally free
I'm coming up for air
Can finally see
Don't feel the pit in my gut like I used to
Don't have to carry the weight of the old you
Losing you dragged me so deep and it left me, left me there
But I'm coming up for air

(But I'm coming up for)

Didn't expect to feel relief
To talk bout your sister and my family
Your eyes say everything I need
I meant to you what you meant to me

You're two feet to my left and
My whole world didn't end
No more holding my breath

I'm coming up for air
I'm finally free
I'm coming up for air
Can finally see
Don't feel the pit in my gut like I used to
Don't have to carry the weight of the old you
Losing you dragged me so deep and it left me, left me there
But I'm coming up for

No more losing sanity
Let go of the fantasy
No more going home scared I might run into your family
No more crying on the floor
No more feeling not enough
No more making villains out of people learning how to love
No more fear of what you think
Used to be so sickening
Looking in your eyes I feel the feeling finally sinking in
No more crying on the floor
No more feeling not enough
No more making villains out of people learning how to love
(Air)
No more making villains out of people learning how to love
(Air)
Can finally breathe

Lyrics:
Like a joke that won't land
Like a lump in your throat or a weight in your hands
It's walking in the room and forgetting what you're looking for
Running back and forth seeing if you really locked the door
It's constant deja vu
Nothing feelings right if it's not with you
No it don't make sense
How it feels to lose a

Friend
Friend
Friend

Like a million missed calls
Not knowing where to land when you start to fall
It's feeling like a book that nobody can read
Cuz nobody could ever really see what you see

Stitched up but still bleeding
Know that I can breathe but my hearts not beating
Don't make sense
How it feels to lose a friend
Friend
Friend
Friend
How it feels to lose a
Friend
Friend
Friend

On my wedding day
Who's supposed to stand on my right
You're supposed to be on my side
But you left anyway
Never giving a reason why
Using silence like it's a knife

Like clothes that don't fit
Like an empty glass when you go to take a sip
Or being the somebody that nobody will pick
Throwing out ideas but then none of em stick

Like screaming "come home"
To somebody who already decided to go
Oh it's all dead ends
Never did make sense
Oh never did make sense
How it feels to lose a friend

Lyrics:

V1:
Oh say can you see 
The smoke from your window
Unnatural disasters are all man made
Fire’s catching on trees
But we made the wind blow 
As we close the blinds and look the other way 

Pre:
Land of the free
Home of the brave, but
It’s hard to breathe
I’m so afraid of 
All of the pain  
Nothing is changing 

Chorus:
America, the beautiful
Where killing’s constitutional 
Where schools are just like funerals
Where leaders are delusional 
America
America
Oh ain't it beautiful?

V2:
Oh say can you see
The children in cages
Their parents had nothing but dreams in hand 
And I can’t believe
That we get away with
Being so protective over stolen land

Pre:
Land of the free
Home of the brave, but
It’s hard to breathe
I’m so afraid of 
All of the pain  
Nothing is changing 

Chorus:
America, the beautiful
Where killing’s constitutional 
Where schools are just like funerals
Where leaders are delusional 
America
America
Oh ain't it beautiful?

Bridge:
Time moves on, but we go backwards
Keep repeating the same patterns 
Every headline’s a disaster
Thoughts and prayers then forget after

Chorus:
America, the beautiful
Where killing’s constitutional 
Where schools are just like funerals
And somehow it’s excusable  
America
America
Oh ain't it beautiful?
