Walking down these streets alone again
Low expectations mixed with mayhem
Ripples in the puddles move unsteady
Like the pumping blood from my heartbeat
Rain disguises the tears
When I can't face my fears
(Oh)
The world keeps beating me down
To the point where I may drown
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Reading old texts and posts on Facebook
And all the letters in your notebook
Based on a time where I didn't put you first
I know it's my curse
God it hurts
Want to put it in reverse
I didn't step up when I needed to
I was scared of something new
Disappointment is my defining trait
It's too late
For God's sake
Get a hold of yourself it's pathetic
It's just me it's authentic
The smiles fading around me
It's time to flee
Can't you see
I gotta set myself free
Rain disguises the tears
When I can't face my fears
(Oh)
The world keeps beating me down
To the point I may drown
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Not a day goes by when your not on my mind
Just last week I took the time
To look back on the days we had
Where we took a drive to the lake and back
Remember the nights where we just talked
About your work and what you bought
We used to dream of a house in town with a dog
The plans we had of morning jogs
I guess it was never meant to be
So says me
Rain disguises the tears
When I can't face my fears
(Oh)
The world keeps beating me down
To the point I may drown
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
