Sentimental

[Verse 1]
I think I'm full of shit
But it's all sentimental
I like my share of fear
But keep it soft and gentle
Not like the words I use
Mixed with a taste of hatred I don't save for anybody else

[Verse 2]
I dream of empty streets
Dark nights and cups of coffee
I dream of rolling hills
I hear her laughing softly
But there's a pressing sense
That everything around me isn't felt by anybody else

[Pre-Chorus]
And if I'm out of line
Won't you take the blame
This is what I get for guessing at the words you won't say

[Chorus]
Let our voices break
Let us tear our way back home again
Because I swear that there's a reason for the awful things I say
No it's not you
Maybe one day

[Verse 3]
I'm gonna move away
And I'll feel self important
I think I'll starve myself
Inside an old apartment
And when the time is right
I'll send out invitations saying I no longer feel afraid

[Verse 4]
I'll dream of neon lights
Black eyes and good intentions
I'll dream of hidden cards
Of comforts never mentioned
But in my reasoning
I found a fatal flaw that says I'm born to live and die the same

[Pre-Chorus]
And if I'm out of line
Won't you take the blame
This is what I get for guessing at the words you won't say

[Chorus]
Let our voices break
Let us tear our way back home again
Because I swear that there's a reason for the awful things I say
No it’s not you
Maybe one day

[Bridge]
I'm angry and I'm wounded
Though the reason's still unclear
All I know is that I'm suffering
And I don't want you to hear
It's like throwing pebbles at a mountain
Shooting bullets in the sea
I'm a sad excuse for nature
So what's your excuse for me
'Cause I don't know how to hurt you
So I only hurt myself
Although I think it makes you hate me
Something I do all too well
'Cause you're the bruises on my knees
You're the ringing in my ears
You're the only days remembered
Out of twenty some odd years
So here I'll stand
And here I'll stay
And here I'll fall
But not today
'Cause I am strong
But you're stronger still
And you don't know that I'm your weakness
But you will

[Chorus]
Let our voices break
Let us tear our way back home again
Because I swear that there's a reason for the awful things I say
No it's not you
Maybe one day

[Outro]
Let us bleed it out
Let the tears run down your face again
Because I swear that there's a reason for the awful things I say
I never would have chased you if you’d never run away
