Oakton
Frozen still in the autumn breeze but in your car it's a thousand degrees
Nothing else mattered when we spent our nights on dimly lit streets
Everyday I'm scared that I'll never feel the same again
I gave you my best days when you didn't deserve them
When I said I'd come back running
I should've known you'd try to change me and we were not worth saving
Standing in the snow you were all alone
I was dying to be happy
We found ourselves lost in the moment
I could never be good enough
Everyday betraying trust
You cut me down with words
You left me broken
Now I know that same old smile
It comes around once in a while
To this day still pulling strings, but you'll never earn my jealousy
It took a year too many to realize you tried to change me and I don't need saving
Standing in the snow you were all alone
I was dying to be happy
We found ourselves lost in the moment
I could never be good enough
Everyday betraying trust
You cut me down with words
You left me broken
I'd never felt so alone as the day I turned on Oakton and left you standing in the winter's cold
This was a second home, now I'm on my own
Thanks to you all of these streets are haunted
I crossed my heart, you broke it
Torn down by words you'd spoken
I don't hate you, I just hate the way I let you walk right through me
Nothing else mattered when we spent our nights on dimly lit streets
Everyday I'm scared that I'll never feel the same again
I gave you my best days when you didn't deserve them
When I said I'd come back running
I should've known you'd try to change me and we were not worth saving
Standing in the snow you were all alone
I was dying to be happy
We found ourselves lost in the moment
I could never be good enough
Everyday betraying trust
You cut me down with words
You left me broken
Now I know that same old smile
It comes around once in a while
To this day still pulling strings, but you'll never earn my jealousy
It took a year too many to realize you tried to change me and I don't need saving
Standing in the snow you were all alone
I was dying to be happy
We found ourselves lost in the moment
I could never be good enough
Everyday betraying trust
You cut me down with words
You left me broken
I'd never felt so alone as the day I turned on Oakton and left you standing in the winter's cold
This was a second home, now I'm on my own
Thanks to you all of these streets are haunted
I crossed my heart, you broke it
Torn down by words you'd spoken
I don't hate you, I just hate the way I let you walk right through me
