Lyrics

So much has taken place since my love affair with lust began
Haven't been thinking straight and I don't think I want to again
Oh I was always shy and
Taught I should never lie, I'm
Alone just fantasising
About what I'm denying
I've never really missed it, but I wish I could go back
Oh just to get a sense of making memories that I lack
But now it's always red lights
Ten hours until the night time
Oh how do I even climb
Oh out of this dead life
I'm not surprised I'd rather die about a hundred times
I've set aside all but my life
What do I have to show for it
Cos I didn't do any of that
When I was a boy
Say to me that you wanna come over
What you need, is not really closure
Entertain you with words that I wrote for you
Enter lanes leading us to that show for you
Who's to say that it wouldn't have worked
If we tried to make it, it would've been worth
All the time I spent writing melodies and words
We had all we needed for a great Summer
I'm not surprised I'd rather die about a hundred times
I've set aside all but my life
I've got nothing to show for it
As I didn't do any of that
When I was a boy
A boy
So much for never lying
So much for never trying
How I'm just realising
Always on the worst timing
It's what I always asked for
But I will always ask more
Surprised at how these last four
Years they went so fast for
Bad of me that I cannot move on
So much for never lying
So much for never trying
Sad of me that all those days are gone
How I'm just realising
Always on the worst timing
It just won't be the same, if I tried
Stuck in place, will it ever change, all these
Plastic memories will last me, until I die
'Till I die, I won't ever know if it
It just doesn't feel the same
No it just doesn't feel the same
Yea just doesn't feel the same
No it just doesn't feel the same
How could I end up this way?
How could I end up this way?
How could I end up this way?
How could I end up this way?
