reflecting on last spring, and all i havent learned. imagine this song like an angry letter thrown into the fire,,, just,,, immortalized by the internet instead of burned out of existence.

lyrics

Ive been biting my tongue
biting it till it bleeds
i dont know how you cant see
the blood it drips and stains the sea
cover your eyes and ears i
dont know if i even blame you
pretending things are not as they seem
as they are
as it was
as you were
i will leave

wake me up when youve had your fun

ive been biting my tongue
and chewing my cheeks to hide your name
its hard to carry on
a boy in a tie, the people a sea
it seems the loud music
never stopped, no one hears this
pretending things are not as they seem
as they are
as it was
as you were
i will leave

wake me up when youve had your fun
when you come back the shore might be gone
and who do you have to lean on?

ive been immobilized
by the fear of speaking my mind
we used to be past this but im
thinking that the peak is over
regress back to our former
never would i loose what ive learned
knowing things are as they seem
as they are
as it was
as you were
i will leave

wake me up when youve had your fun
wake me up when youve had your fun
let me rest, after all this im done
