The Daylight 04:42
Can't believe she's gone, I Can't believe she's gone, I Can't believe she's gone away Darkness was my future, Hopeless were the patterns, Callous was my heart, so it seems Oh, I should sing a little bit faster, I'm to blame for this disaster, I'm repairing my heart for you, Oh and I should breathe a little bit softer, Oxygen reminds me I lost her, I'm repairing my heart for you Can't believe she's gone, I Folded on the creases, Tore myself to pieces now But blessed was the daylight that, Flooded my hearts windows, and Cleared the smoke that billows out Oh, I should sing a little bit faster, I'm to blame for this disaster, I'm repairing my heart for you, Oh and I should breathe a little bit softer, Oxygen reminds me I lost her, I'm repairing my heart for you Peace my body, Oh my soul - to find, no I don't mind Break my hardened heart to show, that I, yea I was blind Lay my body on the shore, to find, no I don't mind Can't believe she's gone, I'm Casting out the demons Letting go of reasons why Welcome was the daylight that Found where I was hiding, and Fought the dark residing there Oh, I should sing a little bit faster, I'm to blame for this disaster, I'm repairing my heart for you, Oh and I should breathe a little bit softer, Chemicals remind me I lost her, I'm repairing my heart for you

You never see clearly, till you stop crying I never found it, until I stopped trying I stumbled upon you and fell through the ceiling tiles I started a fire, to smoke out my treasons I tore down a building, to pick up the pieces And now on a clear glass wall, I can see our fate but it’s a little too late Oh If you’re hearing this I must have made it through Oh when the clouds above open up through my window I’ll see the sky’s still blue I made the incision, I begged and I borrowed I traded my vision, for heartache and sorrow But now that I’ve found my sight I finally realize, I was born to go blind
3.
the wind blows through your hair as you're walking people stare up the block and down the street to north kings highway and there's a beating in my chest and it's seeming to suggest that before this day is through it might go my way so i sit back in my seat i scribble down something that's sweet about a boy, a girl and endless stretch of scenery cause it's like falling to your knees before a stranger on the street i did it just the other day you should have seen me oh and i wanna remember this night and how my words never came out right it's just my patience that keeps me alive just like all those pretty lights just like all those pretty lights in the sky there's something to be said about the colors in your head and how they mix to form the perfect shade of sadness not because of things i've done or any of the songs i've sung it's just the story of our lives we wish we had this and i remember we stayed up way past you're bedtime up on the 2nd floor down by my sliding door just innocent kids in a victimless crime trapped in a metaphor hoping for something more

Nothing goes as planned Everything will break People say goodbye In their own special way All that you can rely on And all that you could fake Will leave you in the morning Come find you in the day Oh, you’re in my veins, and I cannot get you out Oh, you’re all I taste, at night inside of my mouth Oh, you run away, cause I am not what you found Oh, you’re in my veins, and I cannot get you out Everything will changed Nothing stays the same Nobody is perfect Oh, but everyone is to blame All that you rely on And all that you can save Will leave you in the morning Will find you in the day Oh, you’re in my veins, and I cannot get you out Oh, you’re all I taste, at night inside of my mouth Oh, you run away, cause I am not what you found Oh, you’re in my veins, and I cannot get you out No I cannot get you out No I cannot get you out Oh no, I cannot get you out No I cannot get you out Everything is dark It’s more than you could take But you catch a glimpse of sunlight Shining Shining down on your face Your face On your face Oh, you’re in my veins, and I cannot get you out Oh, you’re all I taste, at night inside of my mouth Oh, you run away, cause I am not what you found Oh, you’re in my veins, and I cannot get you out No, i cannot get you out No, i cannot get you out... Oh no, I cannot get you...

woe is me faithless you and selfish me i will leave a key for you outside my doorway woe is me one if by the land, or two by sea so won’t you leave, for me, a light outside your doorway on a ladder from there to here i’ll climb all this clatter between my ears i find does it matter if i cant clear my mind? There’s a right and a wrong time Woe is me Sentimental you and faithful me And i will be the one to gaze on you discreetly Slow your speed Turn yourself around and follow me Cause i will be the one who preys upon you sweetly on a ladder from there to here i’ll climb all this clatter between my ears i find does it matter if i can’t clear my mind? There’s a right and a wrong time on a ladder from there to here i’ll climb all this clatter between my ears i find does it matter if i can’t clear my mind? There’s a right and a wrong time
