I like to whisper
And you like to scream
This isn't working
But you'll never leave
Theyd like to take these
Thoughts to your mind
you're kicking and screaming
So you'll never find the crime
You never wanted to leave
And I never wanted to stay
I guess it's for the best
Until the very end
Decisions may come back to haunt
I never want this to be
let's wish for the best
Until the very end
They want to help you
But you'd rather blame.
So now they avoid you
Like you were a plague
Your minds been in transit
Now for so long
I hope that you find it
Cuz you've never been so wrong
You never wanted to leave
And I never wanted to stay
I guess it's for the best
Until the very end
Decisions may come back to haunt
I never want this to be
let's wish for the best
Until the very end
So long goodbye
Hope this finds you well
So long goodbye
And I'll never tell
But I had to show you
That I'm sorry .
And I hope that you'll
Grow up someday

Take a trip down to the shoreline
Where they broke your heart
But the pieces stay
Inside the ground
Take a walk down to the east side
Where your friends that died
Hang out by the lights
In The night
Where they reconvene
never make a scene
there to remind
Take a ride up to the shoreline
Where the ghosts come back
Just to reenact
The best of times
Take walk down to the west side
Where the luggage claim
Is there claim to fame
So take the walk
Where we reconvene
Never make a scene
enjoy the ride
Chorus
Everything don't mean anything
If everyone won't do anything at all
Just got to believe in it dear
And every turn that you never learned
Will bring you back to where you started from
Again
Until you get it right
Bridge
You say that life ain't easy
I think that You forgot the words
You say that life will beat me
I think that you forgot the words
To sing

And How does it feel to be disloyal
And how does it feel to stab your best friend in the back
I hear you're saving puppies
Somewhere in Coram
And I think I saw you walking
Could've sworn I heard you talk
But every time I come around
you jump back in your coffin
And your suicide was your only way out
Cuz I could never hurt you
And you're great friend to the rest of the world
A pretty good friend to everyone but me
And i'm peeking out from under
The rug you have swept me in
And I could see from down here
All the bullshit people stepped in
And today the truth comes
In the form of a song
And I hope these six drinks stab your heart
To remind you what you did
That your suicide was your only way out
Cuz I could never hurt you
And you're great friend to the rest of the world
A pretty good friend to everyone but me
I went down to your funeral
I was alone with an empty casket
Before I took off I sang you a song
It goes I might be dead to you but you're not dead to me
And I think I saw you walking
Could've sworn I heard you talk
But every time I come around
you jump back in your coffin
Repeat chorus

We all hear what you're saying
But you can't see what they do
So We wont give you that number
Cuz they're addicted to you
Have you learned how to walk
Well you should learned how talk again
Cuz I can't tell
We can't tell if your dumb
Sometimes the words don't come out so right
And everything that you thought was so right was wrong
Right was wrong
Look for meaning in nothing
Ignore the showing of proof
The lies won't give you that number
Cuz it all adds up to you
Have you learned how to walk
Well you should learned how talk again
Cuz I can't tell
We can't tell if your dumb
Sometimes the words don't come out so right
And everything that you thought was so right was wrong
Right was wrong
So When's he coming back for you
To explain to you
the way to feel
Do you think it's real
So When's he coming back to you
Cuz we can't explain the loyalty
Do you think it's free to feel
Please just
Say goodnight
