May I have your attention please Cause I think I’ve been deceived And now I just don’t know what to believe May I have your attention please First things first, I’m out of luck Feeling like I just wanna self-destruct Is not the best way to waste my time But it’s better than just wondering why Every second I spend here Just confirms my deepest fears I don’t know where to go But I know I’ll end up broken and alone Nothing really matters When you’ve been pushed so far down Well nothing really matters May I have your attention please Cause I think I’ve been deceived And now I just don’t know what to believe May I have your attention please Cause I think I’ve been deceived May I have your attention please Lady luck’s a heartless bitch I’m always caught in a stitch From bridges I seem to burn Formed places I can’t return Nothing ever feels the same Maybe I’m slowly going insane I feel I’ve crossed the line Cause I so far that I ran out of time Nothing really matters When you’ve been pushed so far down Well nothing really matters May I have your attention please Cause I think I’ve been deceived And now I just don’t know what to believe May I have your attention please Cause I think I’ve been deceived And now I just don’t know what to believe May I have your attention please Nothing really matters Nothing really matters May I have your attention please I think I have been deceived And now I just don’t know what to believe May I have your attention please Cause I think I’ve been deceived And now I just don’t know what to believe May I have your attention please May I have your attention please May I have your attention please

She caught me with my head underwater Felt like I was about to be slaughtered Paraded down the busy city streets The worst side of me exposed for all to see And I guess I did kind of half-expect To choke on my words till there was nothing left But I didn’t think this would happen again So I guess that all I can do is make do and mend My head is all I hear at night Let's lock the doors My body's giving up the fight Tonight I'm yours She caught me with my head underwater Felt like I was about to be slaughtered Paraded down the busy city streets The worst side of me exposed for all to see The things I’m scared of showing myself Have taken a liking to my personal hell She says it’s not over, and then it happens Over and over and over and over again My head is all I hear at night Let's lock the doors My body's giving up the fight Tonight I'm yours So I stay with my head underwater Still laughing all the way to the slaughter Staring down the busy city streets I guess this has to be the worst damn side of me My head is all I hear at night Let's lock the doors My body's giving up the fight Tonight I'm yours

I’m living off cold pizza and broken hearts Stumbling through rubble in the dark Trying to find myself the smallest hint of a sign I should apologise on my emotions’ behalf I knew I was toxic from the start But I guess that wasn’t a thought that I could get behind When your eyes are disguised And I’m covered in lies And we’re wasting our time That’s when I realise I miss you more than anything at all I told myself that I’d be more sincere But honesty makes less sense each year Now I can’t tell you anything I have to say I only understand one thing that’s vaguely clear And that’s the fact I need you here And that I couldn’t have it any other way When your eyes are disguised And I’m covered in lies And we’re wasting our time That’s when I realise I miss you more than anything at all I know you hate how you’re the one that keeps me up at night I know you hate how you’re the one that keeps me up at night

I long for your love And I long for your affection I long for all the things that I just cannot have And I miss your smile I’ve not seen it for a while But I still tell myself that it’s not so bad I’m not coming home tonight The colours of the train, they just blur and go by I’m not coming home tonight When will you see we’ll never be alright I was scared of our past Now I’m scared of our future I’m scared of what might happen When you’re not around And I’m still chasing ghosts In places that we’ll never go In the hopes that maybe someday We’ll both be homebound I’m not coming home tonight The colours of the train, they just blur and go by I’m not coming home tonight When will you see we’ll never be alright I’m a wreck in the worst kind of way I wonder sometimes how I’ll get through the day You know that I still just don’t have the guts to say You know that I’m just a phone call away I’m not coming home tonight The colours of the train, they just blur and go by I’m not coming home tonight When will you see I’m not coming home (I’m not coming home tonight) I’m not coming home Why can’t you see we’ll never be alright?

What am I doing here Is there any kind of reason nothing feels clear All the words I say make me wanna choke Cause I’m not bent, just broke I’m just an asshole with feelings I hope you understand The fact that I went crazy Wasn’t part of my plan I know this has no meaning But I apologise I guess it could mean something At some other point in time What am I doing here Do I have to just give up or can I persevere When everything feels like a joke Cause I’m not bent, just broke I’m just an asshole with feelings I hope you understand The fact that I went crazy Wasn’t part of my plan I know this has no meaning But I apologise I guess it could mean something At some other point in time Not bent, just broke Not bent, just broke

If you’re still around There are some things I just want you to know I’ll try to not let all my feelings overflow I guess that I’m just scared Just scared of what you think The more I know, the further down, the further down I sink (You’ll find me here) It’s pathetic I thought we were in this together It’s pathetic I can’t wallow in self-pity forever I know that I’m still bitter But delusion’s such a drag I’m sick to death of waving the white flag If you’re still around If you’re still around Just give me a sign, pretend that everything’s alright And I’ll try to act like I’m at least somewhat contrite I guess I’m not as together As I thought I might have been It might be that I'm the only one not listening (You’ll find me here) It’s pathetic I thought we were in this together It’s pathetic I can’t wallow in self-pity forever I know that I’m still bitter But delusion’s such a drag I’m sick to death of waving the white flag If you’re still around You’ll find me here If you’re still around If you’re still around If you’re still around You’ll find me here If you’re still around If you’re still around If you’re... Oh, it’s pathetic I thought we were in this together It’s pathetic I can’t wallow in self-pity forever I know that I’m still bitter But delusion’s such a drag I’m sick to death of waving the white flag If you’re still around
