Brand New
The Quiet Screaming
[Verse: Dashboard Confessional]
I'm missing your bed, I never sleep
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak
And this bottle of beast is taking me home
I'm cuddling close to blankets and sheets
But you're not alone and you're not discreet
You make sure I know who's taking you home
I'm reading your note over again
There is not a word that I comprehend
Except when you signed it
"I will love you always and forever"
I'm missing your laugh, how did it break?
And when did your eyes begin to look fake?
I hope you're as happy as your pretending
I'm cuddling close to blankets and sheets
And I am alone, in my defeat
I wish I knew you were safely at home
I'm missing your bed, I never sleep
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak
And this bottle of beast is taking me home
[Verse: Brand New]
We saw the western coast
I saw the hospital
Nursed the shoreline like a wound
Reports of lover's tryst
Were neither clear nor descript
We kept it safe and slow
The quiet things that no one ever knows
[Chorus: Brand New]
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
If today's the day it gets tired
Today's the day we drop out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
[Dialogue]
"Do you leave your razorblades lying around?"
"Don't be a [?]"
[Verse: Dashboard Confessional (Brand New)]
As for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs
And sit alone and wonder
How you're making out
But as for me I wish that I was anywhere
With anyone making out
I'm missing your laugh, how did it break?
(I lie for only you)
And when did your eyes begin to look fake?
I hope you're as happy as your pretending
I'm missing your bed, I never sleep
(And I lie well, Hallelu)
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak
And this bottle of beast is taking me home
[Chorus: Brand New (Dashboard Confessional)]
So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
If today's the day it gets tired
Today's the day we drop out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
So keep the blood in your head
(Your hair, its everywhere)
And keep your feet on the ground
If today's the day it gets tired
Today's the day we drop out
(Screaming infidelities and taking its wear)
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
So keep the blood in your head
(Your hair, it's everywhere)
And keep your feet on the ground
If today's the day it gets tired
Today's the day we drop out
(Screaming infidelities and taking its wear)
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
(Your hair, it's everywhere
Screaming infidelities and taking its wear)
