witching hour

I'm at my worst right now
Alone on a park bench at the witching hour
With the words that you speak and the ones that you mean
What could be harder than falling asleep
With the breath that I breathe I'd bury my dreams
If all that it meant was for this to be easy
All that I need is you with me
Don't you know that I'm doing my best
Alone in the dark with the pounding in my chest
When it's over, pull me closer
I could leave but I don't wanna move
But I could go if you think it would help you
I still can't cry, I think that's my weakness
How long must I sit here to pick up the pieces
When I wake up will you wish me well
I'd rather be here in my personal hell
So if I should stay, am I digging my grave
Nothing seems harder than walking away
For better or worse, I'd carry my curse
If all that it meant was for this to work
All that I need is you with me
Don't you know that I'm doing my best
Alone in the dark with the pounding in my chest
When it's over, pull me closer
I could leave but I don't wanna move
But I could go if you think it would help you

Please don't ever think that you could hurt me
Don't forget that you're the one I'd choose
When you decide that we're just friends
I'll be there to make amends
I know you're someone I was meant to lose
Never really thought I was the running type
I can never miss you if I never try
I know you couldn't wait for the morning light
But I'm scared you never wanted me to say goodbye
So what's the problem if my mood's a little dark
If I have my way you know I'll tear us apart
Yeah, so tell me, tell me, how could I win
Should I have a little heart
Should I show a little skin
Well lately I been struggling to lift my chest
Been buying all this shit just to relieve the stress
So girl, please forgive me, I just want what's best
Yeah girl, please forgive me, I'm just doing my best
Never really thought I was the running type
I can never miss you if I never try
I know you couldn't wait for the morning light
But I'm scared you never wanted me to say goodbye
(My mood, my mood's a little dark)
(I'll tear, I'll tear us both apart)
Please don't ever think that you could hurt me
(Tell me, tell me, how could I win)
Don't forget that you're the one I'd choose
(Have a heart and show some skin)
When you decide that we're just friends
I'll be there to make amends
I know you're someone I was meant to lose
I was meant to lose
Never really thought I was the running type
I can never miss you if I never try
I know you couldn't wait for the morning light
But I'm scared you never wanted me to say goodbye

You don't wanna know my name
You don't wanna know my fucking name
You don't wanna love me
You don't wanna know my name
Yeah, you don't fucking love me
You don't even know my name
That's okay, I'm alright
If you don't wanna play the game then I'm fine
That's okay, I'm alright
I'm not gonna wait for you, never mind
You don't understand how I want this to go
Girl, if you think I don't know how to make it alone
Cause when I ride, I don't ride in the fucking backseat
When I die, I won't die when you fucking ask me
If I'm not enough then you don't have to remind me
If you wanna make out, you know where to find me, ya
You don't waste your time
When you're throwing me aside
Out of sight and out of mind
If you wanna hurt me do it right
Right, as if you even heard me
Girl, if that's all you got
Well then you weren't even worth me
You don't wanna love me
You don't wanna know my name
Yeah, you don't fucking love me
You don't even know my name
That's okay, I'm alright
If you don't wanna play the game then I'm fine
That's okay, I'm alright
I'm not gonna wait for you, never mind
What could I ever say to you
I don't wanna tell the truth
You don't wanna hear it too
I don't wanna be with you
I just wanna hear you say
I'm not looking for anything but you
Anything but you
But you don't wanna know my name
You don't wanna know my fucking name
You don't wanna love me
You don't wanna know my name
(No you don't, no you don't, no you don't wanna know)
Yeah, you don't fucking love me
You don't even know my name
(Well darling, that's just the way that it goes)
That's okay, I'm alright
If you don't wanna play the game then I'm fine
That's okay, I'm alright
I'm not gonna wait for you, never mind

no excuse

I'm still losing sleep cause I always think of you
And I never mind the reasons why there's nothing I can do
Lately when I hit the streets, I've been down with no excuse
Lately I've been looking down
Like there's no, like there's no one to choose
But hey, there was nothing you could say
Nothing that you ever wish for ever seems to want to stay
Is that me or you, who's gonna be the first to break
Do you think about me too
Do you think, do you think you're too late
Well baby, I miss you
Or maybe, I want to
So hate me, I'm with you
It's the same old story where you want me to lose
Well baby, I miss you
Or maybe, I want to
So hate me, I'm with you
If you loved me better you would tighten the noose
If that's the way we're meant to part then
Take a breath, say what you wanted
Just finish what you started
I still convince myself to miss you
If I could just forget about you
Would it be better if I had never known
Well baby, I miss you
Or maybe, I want to
So hate me, I'm with you
It's the same old story where you want me to lose
Well baby, I miss you
Or maybe, I want to
So hate me, I'm with you
If you loved me better you would tighten the noose

If I should wait for you to wander
Would you let me then be free
When I fall prey to silent waters
Would you let me sink this dream
But if you should watch over me
And you never let this lie
Then rest assured, oh, should you falter
Lay your weary head on mine
A fleeting word is all I need to
Let you steal my heart away
A second chance is all I'd give you
Why should I still choose the pain
As I take more than you can give
I lose all I stand to gain
So please forgive as I forgave you
I can't bear to see your face
I love or hate, no in-between
I don't know how to make this fair
It's nothing less than sick obsession
Or burn in hell for all I care
If I'm blessed with an open heart
Then it's cursed to always break
So I should wait for you to wander
There's no more that I can say
