Black Marks

You said you’d wait forever

I guess forever never came

I walked the stairs to the old apartment

And it didn’t feel the same

Or maybe I’m the one who changed

I’m staring down that hallway,

As the memories come flooding back.

Attached to stupid things like

This scene , where you broke my heart,

With no apologies

Just straight ghosting.

Forever love since 23?

Huh. Guess the jokes on me.

You left me in the dark

I would’ve given you everything

Now my life is slowly falling apart

With black marks on my heart

Who brought you down so far?

I was never the enemy

All my life, i’ll keep moving on

With black marks on my heart

Whatever your mom thinks,

She’ll never even know

You set me up as the target

Counting down till i explode,

Who’s the one with the reason?

Who’s the one with the doubt?

Come on and clear your mind and put it all on the line so we can figure it out.

Cause we can shake this now

Swung for the fence but fouled

And now I’m hating crowds

But finding love in sound

And singing songs to myself to make it all feel better

You gotta keep your head up from that tidal wave

I woke up to the ashes of the unsent letters

But it didn’t kill the pain.

You left me in the dark

I would’ve given you everything

Now my life is slowly falling apart

With black marks on my heart

Who brought you down so far?

I was never the enemy

All my life, i’ll keep moving on

With black marks on my heart

If your gonna play like you wanna play

Your gonna have to take what im gonna make

If you wanna go where you’ve never gone

Your gonna have to do what you’ve never done

If you wanna feel what you’ve never felt

Your gonna have to play like i wanna play

If you wanna know what you’ve never known

Your gonna have to say what you wanna say

You left me in the dark

I would’ve given you everything

Now my life is slowly falling apart

With black marks on my heart

Who brought you down so far?

I was never your enemy

All my life, i’ll keep moving on

With black marks on my heart

You left me in the dark
