This hit me from left field these feelings that you had concealed A sense of emptiness that you revealed leaving silence over the phone line There were some things I just couldn't say I thought about you every f**ing day Watching miles slowly cause decay while the weeks and months tear you away Well I guess it's just a missed sense of confidence Don't worry because I'll be fine You've got your city lights and I've got the shoreline You will always be branded in me A memory I'll try to keep out of my head A reoccurring dream I can't forget so I'll just sleep in instead I'm leaving open seats to the New York City streets I always figured they be just a little too crowded for me But I swear there was weight in the words you said Enough to knock me off my feet and straight into your bed These bad dreams relapse two separate marks on the same map I keep chasing these times I know I can't get back Well I guess it's just a missed sense of confidence Don't worry because I'll be fine You've got your city lights and I've got the shoreline You will always be branded in me A memory I'll try to keep out of my head A reoccurring dream I can't forget so I'll just sleep in instead I'm leaving open seats to the New York City streets I always figured they be just a little too crowded for me It's just another cla**ic case of the right person at the wrong time You left me with a wreck inside my head, bloody knuckles and a note that read “You should have loved someone else instead” I should've loved someone else instead And I know this could never work so I'll play it out in my head instead From the moment that we met to those three words that you never said You are the life support that time cut short The skip in my heartbeat. I'm dragging my feet You are the lock on my gate keeping me from moving on You left me with a wreck inside my head
