You were a storm but I loved bad weather
You snowed me in so it might be better that we go our separate ways
You're stuck in another phase
You'll follow anything that looks in your direction
Naturally I question whether I was just a trend or something else entirely
The questions never end cause they go as deep as your roots in me
So I'll pull them out just like they were weeds
The only thing I know, you're lost you are not free
Oh I know you think
Think that you know it all, you think that you know it all
Girl you're still so naive
You think you've seen it all, you think you've seen it all
Your hearts' on your sleeve and your mind will believe
Anything that they feed it, so it just keeps eating
The worst kind of beast has beautiful eyes
Puts on a smile and hides behind lies
You can't tell the difference from monsters and sickness
and people who build you, well you're burning bridges
The patience in the people that you're running from is running thin
Everything about you just changes like wind
To adapt to conditions you throw yourself into
Then wonder why you've got nobody to turn to
Well I was there all along
Oh I know you think
Think that you know it all, you think that you know it all
Girl you're still so naive
You think you've seen it all, you think you've seen it all
Your hearts' on your sleeve and your mind will believe
Anything that they feed it, so it just keeps eating
I promise that I'll never try to claw my way back in a life
of someone who's only who they hang around
Alone there's no trace of identity to be found
So follow them follow them you'll see at the end
Follow them follow them you'll see at the end
Follow them down until they let you drown
Follow them down until they let you drown

I fell behind, you drifted away
I'm coping but time takes its toll
I'd like to say that I'm doing okay
but that lie has already been sold
the weight on my shoulders is holding me down
and i cant get over that now I'm alone and afraid
everyone is moving on i shut my eyes and you were gone
everyone is moving on and where am i now
everyone is moving on i shut my eyes and you were gone
everyone is moving on and where am i now
you lied and you lost it came with a cost
we all went our separate ways
said its for the best the changed for the worst
we're stuck in the beds that we made
and now I'm alone and afraid
Now I'm alone, now I'm alone
and afraid

I still try to set a better example, you still try to set me back
and I'm just fine but wouldn't it be nice to be more than that, more than that
Complacency is alright I've been doing it for years
Its easier than trying, confronting all my fears, and you're the biggest one
Maybe its why I run
I spend my nights in parking lots
You spent my love on all you've got
and now you've got all that you want
I'm following your footsteps
At least I know they lead away from here
And only when I'm far away will you hear what I had to say
I moved on some time ago but I'm haunted by your ghost
These backwood roads the only place I ever feel alone
and lonely feels like home
It's probably in my head
It's probably like you said, we're really not so different
I spend my nights in parking lots
You spent my love on all you've got
and now you've got all that you want
I'm following your footsteps
At least I know they lead away from here
I spend my nights in parking lots, run down bars and truckstops
I thought I was escaping but I"m following your footsteps
Going where you've been in hopes that I can find some answers
I'm going where you've been in hopes that I can find some answers
I'm going where you've been in hopes that I can find some answers
I'm going where you've been in hopes that I can find some answers
I'm going where you've been in hopes that I can find some answers

I'm here at a truckstop states away from home
I wonder if you miss me, if you know I'm even gone
You know I'm just like you
You've got your ways I caught on
The air we're used to breathing feels too thick after too long
Then we're gone
We're running from what holds us down
and you'd hoped that I'd turn out so much better than I did
But I can't help it
I'm a canvas, you're an artist
You painted your own image on me to see how it would look
preserved in more than just my memories
In more than just my memories
We're both runners but you're faster, you've got your own life anyway
But I still bothered just to call you from a parking lot in salt lake
I know you didnt answer but I'd probably do the same
The thing with perfect matches is there's too much of one thing
There's too much of one thing
So I'll go the way you told me to
You never let me slow you down, so i'll just forget too
everywhere that we've been and everywhere that we might go
I shouldn't bother with the effort now cause I already know
That some birds just leave for winter and some never come back home
Some just leave for winter and some never come back
We're both runners but you're faster, you've got your own life anyway
But I still bothered just to call you from a parking lot in salt lake
I know you didnt answer but I'd probably do the same
The thing with perfect matches is there's too much of one thing
There's too much of one thing
Wont make the mistake like I did before
Won't leave anything in an unlocked door
Won't fix what's broken, what broke for a reason
I can't hold the weight anymore
We're running but you're still so far away
Staying in fair weather just in case

Did you think about the price you pay
For empty promises you make
Did you think about the things you say
Before they get thrown in your face
I doubt it, oh I doubt it
Well I think I know you better than you even know yourself
You'd go straight to heaven, if it sent me down to hell
You say that you've been changing
But it doesn't look so well for you this time
Did you hope that I would make amends
Did you hope I'd try to call you "friend"
Did you hope that I would give you a second chance
Were your intentions honest, or was I a second guess
Well I think I know you better than you even know yourself
You'd go straight to heaven, if it sent me down to hell
You say that you've been changing
But it doesn't look so well for you this time
It doesn't look so well for you this time, this time, this time...
