lyrics

Pull my paintings off the walls
Ignore my drunken calls
This may have been
The worst of me you’ve seen yet
Take my clothes off of your bed
Cry a little bit
Having them saved you from
So many nights of loneliness

I’ve had better days
But I’m stuck here with these
Broken Memories
They’re stories that I’ll tell my friends

Write all but your name into my songs
Forget all I got wrong
This is probably
The best I’ve been at since
Pack all my clothes into boxes
Laugh a little bit
This past year of plans
Saved me from
So many nights of hopelessness

See I’ve had better days
But I’m stuck here with these
Broken memories
They’re stories that I’ll tell my friends
You took a part of me
Now I’m changing all of these
Fading memories
To stories I’ll tell my friends

You said it’s all we ever
It’s all we ever could
Feel at this age
It’s all we ever
All we ever could
Feel at this age

And for the past few years
I’ve felt this
And I wish I could say
It got easier
You make it sound like
This wasn’t worth it
And maybe that’s the part
That lingered
Maybe thats the part
That set me free

See I’ve had better days
But I’m stuck here with these
Broken memories
They’re stories that I’ll tell my friends
You took a part of me
Now I’m changing all of these
Fading memories
To stories I’ll tell my friends

You said it’s all we ever
It’s all we ever could
Feel at this age
