Mayday Parade Album

A show of hands, who has said these words before
With a show of hearts on the floor, who has ever meant them more
Well I'll swallow my pride if you'll stay for the years
And watch me spin circles as I disappear

Hearts, they don't lie they just quiver in fear
As you say
Tonight we, forget everything
And stay the night
If I was wrong then I'm sorry
I'll stop this fight
For the night

And this empty space left in the seat
To my right where you should be says a lot
Don't let it say goodbye
And today I know that tomorrow is going to shine golden and bring our hearts back home

And today meant nothing, because youre gone
And I swear that this meant everything to me, because my hearts not home

The words are coming I feel terrible
Is it typical for us to end like this
Am I just another scene
From a movie that you've seen 100 times
Cause baby you weren't the first or the last or the worst
And I've got to fill the blanks in the past with a verse
And we could sit around and cry but frankly your not worth it
Anymore

So say hello to all the boys at the top of this table that your under
Lipstick lullabies
This is sorry for the last time
And baby I understand that your making new friends
This is how you get by
The moral this time is
Girls make boys cry

On any other day I'd shoot the boy
Cause your simple toy
Had caused a scene like this
Leave him hanging on the walls
Just a picture in the hall
Like 100 more
Consider this as a gift as you taste him on your lips
And he's making you scream with his hands on your hips
I hope he's leaving you empty baby this is just a fix
For such a simple little whore

And your name remains the same
All that has changed is this pretty face
So pull the trigger
It never gets closer
You want to start over
But never start over

And I thought it would be funny to leave you hanging in suspense
Then I'd run over to your house and I'd scale the chainlink fence
That borders your back yard and then I'd climb through your window
And I'd whisper that I love you as you fall out of your clothes
And we'd lay there in the darkness like this dream of you I had
Where we captured all the fireflies and knew what time we had
Could be counted on our fingertips and that almost made you cry
But you let me hold you tightly as we said all our goodbyes
May I say I loved you more
And it must of been and hour that I clutched you in my arms
And I must have said the right things because you instantly felt warm
And you heard my heart stop beating but you watned not to cry
As your sympathetic whispers told a tale of bad goodbyes
You swore you heard me laughing and I swore I saw you smile
AS the time we've spent together was meant to last us quite a while
As I take this piece of you with me I'll carry to my grave
And knowing that for someone you're an angel sent to save
(Keep Breathing my angel, if you go down I go with you)
May I saw I loved you more
So let's drink to memories we shared
Down one for all the hopes and cares
Here's too for being unaware that you're gone
Because before too long you'll be a memory

You say that Gainesville's got no soul
Well that sounds like a good excuse for coming home
and this Tallahassee skyline keeps singing out a song
Just know it's your song they've been singing.

So stay
So stay

Stay and watch the stars come out and then the sun as they all fade away
I'll sing you every song I know if it will make you want to stay
And then i'll say
That I missed you

And these words
They'll convince you, to stay
I poured through every song I wrote
Every line that I've cried every note that was split with this pen
And every line in every song, they all seemed to come out wrong,
Untill your song

So lets sing it all night long
And this Tallahassee skyline hasnt changed
While the view from every rooftop says to stay

So stay

Stay and watch the stars come out and then the sun as they all fade away

Ill sing you every song I know convince you to stay
And I could call you baby doll all the time
And youd whisper in my ears youd say i missed you boy

Now sing it over again, and over again, and over again,

And I could call you baby doll all the time
and youd whisper in my ears, youd say i missed you boy

Now sing it over again and over again, and over again

I swear that you don't have to go
I thought we could wait for the fireworks
I thought we could wait for the snow
To wash over Georgia and kill the hurt
I thought I could live in your arms
And spend every moment I had with you
Stay up all night with the stars
Confess all the faith that I had in you
To late, I'm sure and lonely
Another night, another dream wasted on you
Just be here now against me
You know the words so sing along for me baby
For heaven's sake I know you're sorry
But you won't stop crying
This anniversary may never be the same
Inside I hope you know I'm dying
With my heart beside me
In shattered pieces that may never be replaced
And if I died right now you'd never be the same

I thought with a month of apart
Together would find us an opening
And moonlight would provide the spark
And that I would stumble across the key
Or break down the door to your heart
Forever could see us not you and me
And you'd help me out of the dark
And I'd give my heart as an offering

And I will always remember you as you are right now to me
And I will always remember now
Sleep alone tonight with no one here just by your side
How does he feel, how does he kiss
How does he taste while he's on your lips
I can't forget you
I know you want me to want you
I want to
But I can't forgive you
So when this is over don't blow your composure baby
I can't forgive you
I know you want me to want you I want to

Well I thought that we could sit around and, talk for hours
about things I couldn't say to you
and things that we could never do and,
This conversation has had no face
when the words take days you can re-write and erase anything

you know my heart (so tell me all thats needed, cause i don't really want this)
knows all this

and I'll borrow words from all my favourite paragraphs
to write about all of these faded things
we hope would mean the most to me
and
each line is sent i have found a new pages of hope for the days when i fell like I've lost everything

you know my heart (so tell me all thats needed, cause i don't really want this)
knows all these lines (cause my jealous heart really can't take that)
so I'll sing this song for everyone thats come out lost

But, I'll be ok (Is that what you want me to say)
It's called breakup
Cause it's broken
But I'll be ok (is that what you want me to say)
It's called breakup
Cause it's broken

I'll be ok
Is that what you want me to say
It's called Breakup
Cause it's broken
(repeats)
(singing)-I'll be ok, is that what you want me to say
Cause it's broken
and well, try so bad to tell me that you
make it that you're sorry and the
lines we said
never meant the words we meant
Cause it's broken
Every kiss that you could ever mean
The everything that takes you back
The chocolate, rose, the kisses
That like chasing through your misses

I'll be ok
Is that what you want me to say
It's called Breakup
Cause it's broken
(x2)

Well I thought that we could sit around and, talk for hours
about things I couldn't say to you
and things that we could never do
