2009 Lyrics

Rose tint faded away

I realized I was all alone

I felt so afraid

I went to the mall in a daze

And everything just felt off

I was lost in the crowd but it felt like I was the only one there at all

And I spent way too much time

Thinking what we could do aligned

If we weren't confined

We're running out of time!

Chasing highs and chasing fame

You only care what others say

You don't learn from your mistakes

You leave the ones you love with a price to pay

(I wish it was still 2009)

If you gotta bone to pick better tell me face to face

Everything you do is in vain

Your innocence wasted away

A vapid husk is in its place

Sometimes I like it better when you're not around

You lift me up then let me down

You stand by and watch me drown

Until I'm at my very last breath

And then you come into the deep end

I gotta confront the truth

It was never me and you

We're running out of time!

Chasing highs and chasing fame

You only care what others say

You don't learn from your mistakes

Leave the ones you love with a price to pay

You don't care about the cost or the stakes

Long as you get your way

I'll use you as my ash tray

Make sure I put you in your place

We're running out of time!
