you don't know me, you don't even care
you don't know me, you don't wear my chains.
speak, speak your mind. you're always
telling me i need to open mind. and wait,
wait your turn then shut me out cause
you've got nothing left to learn.
through the wind and the rain she stands
hard as a stone in a world that she can't
rise above. but her dreams give her wings
and she flies to a place where she's loved.
concrete angel.
there's no one in town i know.
you gave us some place to go.
i never said thank you for that
i thought i might get one more chance.
i grabbed some frozen strawberries so i
could ice your bruising knees but frozen
things they all unfreeze and now i taste like
all those frozen strawberries i used to chill
your bruising knees, hot july aint good to
me, im pink and black and blue for you.
all my bags are packed, im ready to go,
i'm standin here outside your door, i
hate to wake you up to say goodbye.
but the dawn is breaking, its early morn,
the taxis waitin, he's blowin his horn,
already i'm so lonesome i could die.
should i give up or should i just keep
chasing pavements even if it leads nowhere.
or would it be a waste even if i knew my place,
should i leave it there?
as my memory rests
but never forgets what i lost
wake me up when september ends.
and i don't know
how to be fine when im not.
when darkness turns to light
it ends tonight, it ends tonight.
dont you worry about the distance
im right there if you get lonely
give this song another listen.
and i've done all i can to stand on
her steps with my heart in my hands.
now i'm starting to see, maybe it's
got nothing to do with me.
well open up your mind and
see like me, open up your plans
and damn you're free.
and the bars are finally closed
so i try living in the moment
til the moment, it just froze
and i felt sick and so alone.
i think you need to stop following
miserys lead shine away shine away
shine away, isnt it time you got over
how fragile you are always waiting
on your super nova cause thats who
you are and you've only begun to shine.
i talk to you as to a friend
i hope thats what you've
come to be. it feels as though
we've made amends, like we
found a way eventually.
and you don't want to be here in the future
so you say the presents just a pleasant interruption
to the past and you don't want to look much closer
cause you're afraid to find out all the hope you had
sent into the sky by now had crashed. and it did
because of me.
if i ever leave this world alive
i'll take on all the sadness that i left behind.
if you were falling
then i would catch you.
sing me a song tell me about the
things that you're dealing with lately
i dont understand how you could
sing to me lies let them linger inside
of me give me a reason to stay with
you just let me know so i can run
away faster than ever before.
im depressed upstairs
and im remembering where
and when and how and why
you had to go so far.
best friends, they come and go
depending on your highs and your lows.
there ain't no reason things are this way
it's how theyve always been and they
intend to stay. i dont know why we live
this way, we do it everyday.
i don't wanna waste another moment
saying things we never meant to say.
and even though im angry i can still say
i know my heart will break the day
when you peel out and drive away
i can't believe this happened.
is that what you call tact? your as subtle
as a brick to the small of my back. so lets
end this call and end this conversation
and is that what you call a getaway?
tell me what you got away with.
cause you left the frays from the ties you
severed when say best friends means friends forever.
listen up now honey, you're gonna be sorry.
can't get out from under a sky that is falling.
if there's no one beside you when your
soul embarks, then i'll follow you into the dark.
