Strangers
I won't hold you down
Pick heads off forget-me-nots
The faded light of memories
The spirit of the summerhouse
It still hasn't left me
A haze over the house we shared
A flag of permanent defeat
I'm screaming at the August sun
I know you can hear me
Over and over in my head (Over and over)
I haven't convinced myself yet (We're not getting older)
Won't force you down
Never will I guess I'll just see you around
Heart beats me down
Hollow now this house is a burial ground
I guess I'll just see you around
So lay the weight of your world on me
Upset was overdue
I feel empty like your bedroom
The pressure's building it's caving the walls
Trace the cracks and just wait for it to swallow me whole
How stupid I've been to think it'd be easy
Hostile and faceless but you see right through me
Won't force you down
Never will I guess I'll just see you around
Heart beats me down
Hollow now this house is a burial ground
I guess I'll just see you around
I left you waiting by the train
I took shots with shaky aim
And I know it's desperate but you and I keep circling the same drain
And it still feels the same when I'm standing in the rain
I know it's desperate but I see you on every stranger's face
So lay the weight of your world on me
I'll keep it off your back until you get back up on your feet
You're always doing the same for me
Won't force you down
Never will I guess I'll just see you around
Pick heads off forget-me-nots
The faded light of memories
The spirit of the summerhouse
It still hasn't left me
A haze over the house we shared
A flag of permanent defeat
I'm screaming at the August sun
I know you can hear me
Over and over in my head (Over and over)
I haven't convinced myself yet (We're not getting older)
Won't force you down
Never will I guess I'll just see you around
Heart beats me down
Hollow now this house is a burial ground
I guess I'll just see you around
So lay the weight of your world on me
Upset was overdue
I feel empty like your bedroom
The pressure's building it's caving the walls
Trace the cracks and just wait for it to swallow me whole
How stupid I've been to think it'd be easy
Hostile and faceless but you see right through me
Won't force you down
Never will I guess I'll just see you around
Heart beats me down
Hollow now this house is a burial ground
I guess I'll just see you around
I left you waiting by the train
I took shots with shaky aim
And I know it's desperate but you and I keep circling the same drain
And it still feels the same when I'm standing in the rain
I know it's desperate but I see you on every stranger's face
So lay the weight of your world on me
I'll keep it off your back until you get back up on your feet
You're always doing the same for me
Won't force you down
Never will I guess I'll just see you around
