Verse 1:
I like to read and go, to places that I’ve never been, never been before.
Into closets, countries, or wherever they my take me.
Chorus:
But you’re my favorite thing to read.
So many words and you never seem to end.
And I’m too scared to live like that.
That’s where you come in.
Verse 2:
These secrets are so scary.
So many people don’t know the real me.
Will you still come close and annotate me?
Chorus 2:
You’re still my favorite thing to read.
So many words and you never seem to end.
Did I push you too far and make you bend?
I broke you too much for me to mend.
Bridge:
I can’t erase what you wrote down inside of me.
They sunk so deep they’re in the air when I breathe.
And I don’t want to be alone, anymore.
It’d still be nice to have you at my door.
What have I done?

Verse 1:
I know, that I have severe attachment issues.
I’ve been casting on the North-side and you’ve been living in the South, again.
Chorus:
I don’t want to do anything. I don’t want to do anything new.
I don’t want to do anything. I don’t want to do anything new.
Just let it be me and you.
Verse 2:
I left my heart in a shitty part of California.
Not Los Angeles, but some small town with a giant fucking Jesus.
Some days it’s me and my bed, me in my head. Sad isn’t it.
Chorus:
I don’t want to do anything. I don’t want to do anything new.
I don’t want to do anything. I don’t want to do anything new.
Just let it be me and you.
I don’t want to do anything. I don’t want to do anything new.
I don’t want to do anything. I don’t want to do anything new.

Verse 1:
This wasn’t how it was suppose to be,
Blink was right I guess, but I don’t like me at 23.
What happened to you? What happened to me?
I thought we were gonna be, gonna be happy.
I need more than a salary, but turns out I sold more soul than necessary.
Chorus:
My years will be the end of me
My years are my enemy
Verse 2:
The lights are on in the house that I grew up in, and the streets signs are all showing me how to get there.
My feet are dragging behind me and I’m a little scared. but my heart still cares and there’s a lot of delight.
Cause light is still a light, and a little light is still bright. Yeah a little light is still bright.
Bridge:
So hold on, hold on to the thought of us, and the youth that’s leaving our bones.
So hold on, hold on to the thought of us, and the youth that’s leaving our bones.
So hold on, hold on to the thought of us, and the youth that’s leaving our bones.
So hold on, hold on to the thought of us, and the youth that’s leaving our bones.
I can’t forget already; I’m not even thirty. I can’t forget already; I’m not even thirty.
I can’t forget already; I’m not even thirty. I can’t forget already.
So hold on, so hold on to the thought of us, and the youth that’s leaving our bones.
It’s leavin'

Verse 1:
I read it on the television screen,
You’re a success if your cold and if you’re mean.
And you only have intellect if you willing to say, "there’s nothing and nothing is true."
And on and on we all sing the same songs, "that we were wrong,
And we won’t make the same mistakes that our fathers made.
When they were twenty something back then."
Chorus:
You’re ice on the road. You’re a bad song on the radio.
You’re nice when you’re alone. Cause your only friend’s that stupid phone.
Verse 2:
On and on we’re singing the same song,
"That they were wrong but we have the answers,
But why do I feel like I won’t do any better."
Chorus:
You’re ice on the road. You’re a bad song on the radio.
You’re nice when you’re alone. Your only friend’s that stupid phone.
You’re ice on the road. You’re a bad song on the radio.
You’re nice when you’re alone. Cause your only friend’s that stupid phone.
