I should've known better than to fall for appearance
After all you never judge a book until you read it
Nowadays I'm feeling like a room without a roof
But everything inside is empty and I'm looking for some proof
Maybe you just like to play a game of show and tell
But the telling never happens and the showing gives me hell
So I'm laying here at night thinking about your pretty face
But the memories you gave me were a pity, a disgrace
And I can't help wonder if you did me wrong on purpose
Cuz for lack of a better term I'd say I never deserved it
I've been trying my best to think of a remedy
So I put my words into whatever melody
I think of
I'm on the brink of collapse now
But like old soda I won't fall flat now
I can picture us now on a hillside in Italy
But that'll never happen if you never see the imagery
Survive your own lies on your time
Blue skies will fly by, it's alright
I can't advocate for your sanity
But only time will tell if you had thought of me as family
Had a couple flashbacks
Wish I could get past that
I been down the deepest bag
Hoping I could get back
What I thought was true
Would of never been you
Try to bury what I'm hatching
But my heart keeps attaching
But now I found myself
On the lake with the homies
Tried to keep my cool
But the echoes seem to haunt me
I been in to long
But my heart keeps on growing
I been in too deep
But my heart keeps on roaming
But now I find myself
In a lake of attention
Used the same line twice
Need to ask for directions
I look into the mirror
I can't see my reflection
A shadow of myself is my only recollection
Because I think like a book
And I walk like an actor
I talk all illiterate
Like a southern on a tractor
The only thing I need now
Is a way to get past her
Then maybe I can think
Its a clear mind I'm after
Encore! Encore!
My thoughts are filled with laughter
I found another memory
Add another factor
I'm tired of rhyming anything
This ain't my song anyway
The only thing I need
To survive another gloomy day
The only thing I need
To survive another gloomy day
The only thing I need
To survive another gloomy day
Repeat the same phrase
So people can get through to me
The only thing I need
To survive another gloomy day
Survive your own lies on your time
Blue skies will fly by, it's alright
I can't advocate for your sanity
But only time will tell if you had thought of me as family
Behind the eyes that are the doors
That stop me from getting more
I hope to see you before
All the echoes seem to pour
It's just that I can't find myself
Drowning now I need some help
Maybe I won't see you more
Before the echoes start to pour
