Vanguard

Where did the time go? where have the years gone?
Where'd all my friends go? Feel like a phantom
Everyone I know are just some faces in my phone
I used to call them 'til I realized that I'm better off alone
I don't belong with anybody feels like I'm from outer space
The older that I get the harder it is relate
We go our separate ways and rarely know it at at the time
Upon rewind, I wish I'd found a better way to say goodbye
Exit out the side door hope I don't get seen
Shoulda said farewell but I'm too scared to make a scene
Guilty that I didn't wanna stick around the scene
Now their final memory of me is one I'll never see
If I were to die who would even care?
Who would give me flowers and what stories might they share?
Who would play my music and promote me everywhere?
Show me love if I was gone but just ignore me if I was there?

Three eight nine seven four seven one
If you know the area code and need a friend hit me up
No front same number since late sixth grade
Regardless if I'm famous that will not change
Some ways I'm really just the same old me
Stupid optimistic grandiose when I dream
Loyalty on my sleeve 'til you rip my trust apart
Then I forgive you 'til you do it once again then I depart
I love without condition and I care unto a fault
Stubborn I'll admit it I'm imperfect aren't we all?
I've learned to see my flaws and do my best to make them change
And so the man I am tomorrow ain't the same as yesterday
Contradict the notion that I have to stay the same
Evolution is a natural part of life so turn the page
At the end of the day, this is only the beginning
Even when our stories finished this earth keeps spinning

This is only the beginning
Even when our stories finished this earth keeps spinning
