Untitled (Oct 8)

I'm gonna make a list of people
Who I'm not allowed to talk to anymore
I'm gonna find a good excuse
To keep myself from ever sleeping on your floor
I'm gonna stop myself from calling
Just to try to catch a glimmer of the past
I'm gonna show myself the first day
Isn't really all that different from the last

But certain songs make me 17
Yeah, some things never change and that includes you
So here's to when I said that I was never coming back
And here's to when I realized I'd lose you

I know I must be poison, I can learn to live with that
I know I must be poison, I can learn to live with that
I know I must be poison, I can learn to live with that
I know I must be poison, I can learn

In 7th grade, I let a bully
Make me think that I was made to fear
He slammed my head against the lockers
Chased me down, and made me want to disappear
And so for years, I thought to make new friends
I had to play myself as insecure
I was working my way through it
But then I loved you, and you didn't
So I had to close the door

Certain songs make me 12 years old
Yeah, some things never change, I swear I'm trying
So here's to when I said that I could never love you back
And here's to knowing now that I was lying

I know I must be poison, I can learn to live with that
I know I must be poison, I can learn to live with that
I know I must be poison, I can learn to live with that
I know I must be poison, I can learn

I am tired of gathering dust
I am freeing myself from my head
Where I locked myself up, and I'm walking outside
And I'm giving away all my cigarettes
I am trying to keep all my friends
I am proving I'm living my life
I am calling you back
I am trying to find my way out in the haze of the night
I am tired of gathering dust
I am freeing myself from my head
Where I locked myself up, and I'm walking outside
And I'm giving away all my cigarettes
I am trying to keep all my friends
I am proving I'm living my life
I am calling you back
I am trying to find my way out in the haze of the night
