UFOs in the Sky

Every night I see your bloodshot eyes
As clear as I ever did, clouded by sentiment
I swear I never meant to cut those ties
I was distant and reticent
You were selfish and hesitant to change

But sometimes when I paint my life
I shade in a black and white past
Leave out the shadows I cast
I only tried to find a place to hide
Instead of helping you survive

Another night of feeling like my head's turned sideways
Speeding up the highway, I feel my eyes fade
I swear I saw a UFO in the sky
Kept blind faith, through every tirade
'Cause you were high all the time
And I never tried to make things right

You made me fear rejection
I still hope your spirit's resting
I pull off the nearest exit
I wish I saw a UFO in the sky
You turned me into a skeptic
I wasn't home when you wrecked it
I should've known to expect it

Another night of feeling like my head's turned sideways
Speeding up the highway, I feel my eyes fade
I swear I saw a UFO in the sky
Kept blind faith, through every tirade
'Cause you were high all the time
And I never tried to make things right

You made me fear rejection
I still hope your spirit's resting
I pull off the nearest exit
I wish I saw a UFO in the sky
You turned me into a skeptic
I wasn't home when you wrecked it
I should've known to expect it

I feel like I failed
I still have a voicemail saved you left me
Time heals
Everything but your pale face still gets me
Outside from the shelter that I built
Brings back to life all the remembrance I killed
Revisits the cynical decisions that I still hate
Yet I still made

Another night of feeling like my head's turned sideways
Speeding up the highway, I feel my eyes fade
I swear I saw a UFO in the sky
Kept blind faith, through every tirade
'Cause you were high all the time
And I never tried to make things right

You made me fear rejection
I still hope your spirit's resting
I pull off the nearest exit
I wish I saw a UFO in the sky
You turned me into a skeptic
Your vision blurred your perspective
I should've learned to accept it
(I should've learned to accept it)

I'm feeling like my head's turned sideways
Speeding up the highway, I feel my eyes fade
I swear I saw a UFO in the sky
Kept blind faith, through every tirade
'Cause you were high all the time
And I never tried to make things right

You made me fear rejection
I still hope your spirit's resting
I pull off the nearest exit
I wish I saw a UFO in the sky
I can't deny what you lived through
I wasn't close enough with you
I hope you know that I miss you
(I hope you know that I miss you)
