Skate

It took a turn at 5pm
I wanted so bad for you to come home
Laying back and remembering
How we danced and we laughed and we let it all go
And I can see it all so damn clear like it was yesterday
As I'm sitting on the floor all by myself

No please don't tell me the same old stories
About how everything works out
None of your guidance is reassuring
Cuz I know that you're right

I look outside, the leaves are falling
Summer's gone, and I'm left stalling
How'd it pass so fast? I'm wondering
Was it all a dream or something?
Did you have to be so honest?
Has it been this long since August?
And all the things I gave up for this
I'll stay inside and just ignore them all

To you, I'm turning into this again
A jealous stray that you won't let in
Outside, I'll burn another day undone
Spin around in circles 'til I find someone
To the world, get up and put the lights all on
Been in bed for far too long
Call me what you will
Call me what you will

No please don't tell me the same old stories
About how everything works out
None of your guidance is reassuring
Cuz I know that you're right

I look outside, the leaves are falling
Summer's gone, and I'm left stalling
How'd it pass so fast? I'm wondering
Was it all a dream or something?
Did you have to be so honest?
Has it been this long since August?
And all the things I gave up for this
I'll stay inside and just ignore them all

Yeah just ignore them all

You take it from within
And feed it to the wolves
My superficial skin
You're beautiful and gold
You take it from within
And feed it to the wolves
My superficial skin
You're beautiful and gold

Taken for a night and then
Stayed here for a day too long
Give up for us and them
Give up on what you found
Feeling like a slight of hand
Turned back and saw nothing wrong
Is it time for what they say?
