SELL OUR DEPRESSION
AND JUDGE YOU
BECAUSE I AM ONE TOO
BUT NOW I AM SO HIGH
YOUR MEMORY JUST BLURS BY
SELL MY OBSESSION
I JUDGE ME
BECAUSE I FEEL SO BLUE
BUT NOW I AM SO GONE
IT’S ALWAYS NIGHT
THERE’S NO DAWN

ALL THE DAYS
ALL THE NIGHTS
ALL THE LOVE
AND ALL THE FIGHTS
BUT I KNOW YOU SEE
THAT IT MEANT THE WORLD TO BE
ALL WE SHARED
ALL WE TRIED
ALL WAS YOURS
AND ALL WAS MINE
BUT I KNOW YOU SEE
THAT IT MEANT THE WORLD TO BE
YOU LOOKED ME IN THE EYE
AND TOLD ME YOU’D RUN DRY
I WISH IT WAS A LIE
WHEN YOU TOLD ME YOU’D RUN DRY
YOU WERE RIGHT I CAN’T DENY
WHEN YOU TOLD ME WE’D RUN DRY

STILL HOOKED ON YOU
I DON’T KNOW WHY

THE MISTAKE YOU’RE MAKING
MY LIFE’S BECOME SO EMPTY

YOU HAD A COMMON FIX

WOULD YOU THROW IT ALL AWAY
COULD YOU THROW IT ALL AWAY
BUT I GRAPPLED WITH YOU
AND LOST TOO MANY TIMES
AND WE’RE KILLING OURSELVES
TO KEEP THIS THING ALIVE
ALL THE DAYS
AND ALL THE NIGHTS
ALL THE LOVE
AND ALL THE FIGHTS
ALL WE SHARED
AND ALL WE TRIED
ALL WAS YOURS
AND ALL WAS MINE
BUT I GRAPPLED WITH YOU
AND LOST TOO MANY TIMES
AND WE’RE KILLING OURSELVES
TO KEEP THIS THING ALIVE
THIS WAS MY LAST SONG TO YOU
WE KICKED LOVE AROUND
DROPPED IT DEAD IN THE GROUND
GOD BLESS US WE TRIED
SAID OUR NAMES THEN GOODBYE
WE WOULD HAVE BEEN LYING
IF WE KEPT ON TRYING
