lyrics
So lift your spirits, only slightly
Your life is crashing, right before your eyes
Take in one more breath, won't be your last one
You better start, you better start to believe
They say the city never sleep and neither do I
My vessels are crowded streets, my hopes scrape the sky
And you were strung along this story, now you live in all your glory
If these are your wonder years, live them till the dream dies.
Cause the one thing you can't do is water down the fire in your eyes
And the worst thing that you could do
Is forget
Is forget
And I'll never understand
Why we pretend
We pretend
That you and I live different lives
They say the most awful things and I've heard them all
You wouldn't believe the cruel names they call
But you were strung along this story, now you live in all your glory
If these are your wonder years, do your best to survive
Cause the one thing you can't do is water down the fire in your eyes
And the worst thing that you could do
Is forget
Is forget
And I'll never understand
Why we pretend
we pretend
That you and I live different lives
And all this poetry doesn't do it justice
I wish I could instill this emptiness
But I must confess that I can't confess to being hurt
Cause if you don't let this hurt, you'll never beat this.
I remember all the apparitions I fell in love with all those years ago
When the worst thing in life was a bad grade
Now the worst thing in life is waking up
Because this weight just crushes the dreams you have in your sleep
And you forget them,
In an instant.
And the worst thing that you could do is forget
I live a good life
I live a good life
And I'll never understand why we pretend
I live a good life
I live a good life
The worst thing that you could do is forget
I live a good life
I live a good life
And I'll never understand why we pretend
You'll never be alone
You'll never be alone
Anymore
Anymore
Your life is crashing, right before your eyes
Take in one more breath, won't be your last one
You better start, you better start to believe
They say the city never sleep and neither do I
My vessels are crowded streets, my hopes scrape the sky
And you were strung along this story, now you live in all your glory
If these are your wonder years, live them till the dream dies.
Cause the one thing you can't do is water down the fire in your eyes
And the worst thing that you could do
Is forget
Is forget
And I'll never understand
Why we pretend
We pretend
That you and I live different lives
They say the most awful things and I've heard them all
You wouldn't believe the cruel names they call
But you were strung along this story, now you live in all your glory
If these are your wonder years, do your best to survive
Cause the one thing you can't do is water down the fire in your eyes
And the worst thing that you could do
Is forget
Is forget
And I'll never understand
Why we pretend
we pretend
That you and I live different lives
And all this poetry doesn't do it justice
I wish I could instill this emptiness
But I must confess that I can't confess to being hurt
Cause if you don't let this hurt, you'll never beat this.

I live a good life
I live a good life
The worst thing that you could do is forget
I live a good life
I live a good life
And I'll never understand why we pretend
You'll never be alone
You'll never be alone
