Anywhere But Here – Mayday Parade Lyrics
Tonight is the one thing left
and I haven’t said it yet
I’m falling and the writings on the wall
Today was misery
and I just can’t believe this happened
and I finally broke down
(and I finally broke down)
Tonight is the one thing left
and I haven’t said it yet
I’m falling and the writings on the wall
Today was misery
and I just can’t believe this happened
and I finally broke down
(and I finally broke down)
You say you feel so down
Every time i turn around
You say you should’ve been gone by now
And you think everything’s wrong
You ask me how to carry on
We’ll make it through another day just hold on
I can’t help myself
I’m addicted to a life of material
It’s some kind of joke
I’m obsessively opposed to the typical
How many times
Can I push it aside
Is it time I befriended all the ghosts of all the things that haunt me most
So they leave me alone
Move on with my life
Be certain the steps of left and right don’t fight the direction of upright
Got a million reasons to run and hide
I don’t blame you for being scared, for being scared, no
Bout a novel long, all the pain that he’s caused you
Baby I’m fully aware, I’m fully aware
If I could change the stories ending to me and you
Don’t know the meaning of pretending what to do
I’m walkin’ down the street, shufflin’ my feet
Whistling a feel good song
Got the sun on my face, nothin’ in my way
So I keep rockin’ along
I can hear her heart beat for a thousand miles
And the heavens open every time she smiles
And when I come to her that’s where I belong
Yet I’m running to her like a rivers song
Load the car and write the note
Grab your bag and grab your coat
Tell ones that need to know
We are headed north
It’s a little bit funny this feeling inside
I’m not one of those who can easily hide
I don’t have much money but boy if I did
I’d buy a big house where we both could live
As I lay me down
heaven hear me now
I’m lost without a cause
after giving it my all
Winter storms have come
and darkened my sun
After all that I’ve been through
Who on earth can I turn to?
Seems like we’re holdin’ on forever
Just gotta let it go
Times up,you pushed me to surrender
(tonight)
Who knows,what happens now,whatever
Wherever the wind blows
And im there as long as we’re together
Hey
Hey
Hey
When you walk, you don’t leave tracks
When you talk, they don’t talk back
Believing every word you say
But they don’t know, they don’t don’t know
I think you wanna come over, yeah I heard it through the grapevine.
Are you drunk or you sober? Think about it, doesn’t matter
And if it makes you feel good then I say do it
I don’t know what you’re waiting for
I don’t wanna feel no more
It’s easier to keep falling
Imitations are pale
Emptiness all
Tomorrow’s haunted by your ghost
I have nothing left to give
I have found the perfect end
You were made to make it hurt
Disappear into the dirt
Carry me to heaven’s arms
Light the way and let me go
Take the time to take my breath
I will end where I began
