lyrics

Just say something and mean it
Don't say that you were surprised
All I hear is misleading
And you can't even apologize

With my back up against the wall
It gets worse before it gets better
I might drown before I fall

I'm not the first or the last
To bring this up but I feel like
We keep getting into the same fights
But at the same time, we're doing fine
We wish for more than we could ever handle
Just look at how we're burning out the candles
That we lit one day to symbolize being honest
Without even thinking 'bout the healing process

I'm older now than we were before
I guess I fell through the right hole
But I took my chances and changed my life

With my back up against the wall
It gets worse before it gets better
I might drown before I fall

I'm not the first or the last
To bring this up but I feel like
We keep getting into the same fights
But at the same time, we're doing fine
We wish for more than we could ever handle
Just look at how we're burning out the candles
That we lit one day to symbolize being honest
Without even thinking 'bout the healing process

I was born a summer kid but summers never last
