Behind My Closed Eyes

Time moves slow, the only time I don't want it to
Memories of you before you say a word
I feel the tears, but all I hear is cold
I'll give up for you if that's what you want me to do
Tired of saying goodbye everytime I close my eyes
Won't let me go
or maybe it's me that won't let you
I don't want to
Sometimes falling feels too right
Like it's bound to happen sometime
and sometimes your head makes your heart lose its spark
behind my closed eyes I'm tired of asking why
Now I won't ever know
Maybe it's better even so
I think of you much more than I'd like to
You're so far gone
so why are you here in my mind?
Sometimes falling feels too right
Like it's bound to happen sometime
and sometimes your head makes your heart lose its spark
behind my closed eyes I'm tired of asking why
Now I won't ever know
and it's better that I don't
I'm reaching out for you but it's me who'll pull me through
Climbin' up, don't you dare look down
I'm tired of yelling 'til I'm heard
And staying up at night
Just to watch you walk away again
Behind my closed eyes
Cuz sometimes falling feels too right
Like it's bound to happen sometime
and sometimes your head makes your heart lose its spark
behind my closed eyes I'm tired of asking why
Now I won't ever know
and it's best that I don't
behind my closed eyes

City lights, cars passing
White and yellow stripes
Feel the tears coming, don't you dare show it
Untangle the mess
There's no way you could
You can't do this alone
Take my hand and just let go
Let's look at the stars for the rest of our live
Wherever we are, together or not
Head up, eyes forward
Take a deep breath
You'll go far if you don't play their games
It's all the same
Just keep pushing on
You can't do this alone
Take my hand and just let go
Let's look at the stars for the rest of our live
Wherever we are, together or not
Let's look at the stars for the rest of our lives
Wherever we are, I'm here by your side

Over You.

You're more hopeless than romantic
And I've got a lot to say so I'll be gentle cuz you
Hung up the phone when I said what we had was fun
Guess loves something you couldn't do
I was taught later on
That love's not pining but that's all you ever knew
I'm sorry not sorry
You told me you loved me
I thought we said we'd be friends
I'm sorry not sorry
You thought you'd persuade me
But time doesn't always mend
You thought I'd say that I've been better
But since you're gone I'm feeling so brand new
How 'bout you?
I'm sorry not sorry
I know it's not easy, but hey
It's long overdue
I'm over you.
By this point you should have known better
Than to break my heart
'Cuz I'll write a song about you
Can't say you didn't see this coming
You had your chance, then two
You made me feel like I'm a fool
Now I know how it feels when love's not pining
I guess you wouldn't know
I'm sorry not sorry
You told me you loved me
I thought we said we'd be friends
I'm sorry not sorry
You thought you'd persuade me
But time doesn't always mend
You thought I'd say that I've been better
But since you're gone I'm feeling so brand new
How 'bout you?
I'm sorry not sorry
I know it's not easy, but hey
It's long overdue
I'm over you
I'm over you
I'm over you.

Killing Ghosts

Jump off the edge of the earth to reach the moon and the stars
Doing this all over again knowing that I might not get far
They say there is little hope but at least I know how you feel
Say you'll hold me just one more time so I'll believe that it's real
I know I'm strong enough to hold it all back
But there are spies within and I'm under attack
Thought you were on my side when I let you in
But you worked down my walls and now I can't win
Might be's aren't realities and maybe's aren't for real
I need to start thinking and not feel
I'm giving myself no choice cuz I've come too far
But how am I supposed to hit that target in the dark
I'm runnin' round in circles but I'm dying to get free
I'm fighting and not giving up but it seems to me
I'm killing ghosts
Sometimes you think you can trust someone but then they just change
Sometimes they'll call your name and then run away
Sometimes it's all too much and you feel like you might break
But sometimes someone comes along and can fix your heartache
Might be's aren't realities and maybe's aren't for real
I need to start thinking and not feel
I'm giving myself no choice cuz I've come too far
But how am I supposed to hit that target in the dark
I'm runnin' round in circles but I'm dying to get free
I'm fighting and not giving up but it seems to me
I'm killing ghosts
but it's no use
I can't do this on my own
I've hit the ground too hard
And now I'm seeing stars
Might be's aren't realities and maybe's aren't for real
I need to start thinking and not feel
I'm giving myself no choice cuz I've come too far
But how am I supposed to hit that target in the dark
I'm runnin' round in circles but I'm dying to get free
I'm fighting and not giving up but it seems to me
I'm killing ghosts
