Did I leave Daz behind Because he’s still on my mind And it’s so 2003 To think he’s still into me Blink-182 poster behind his head As he’s sitting on the bed With that smile that begets the name The world rocked and I was not the same In our bond And I abscond But I take something of his air With me as a prayer I say into the sky Please let him love the way I lie And he looks at me, I look back Does he know I’m having a heart attack When he pulls a funny face And his love gives me a place To reside Do I need to hide The heartbeat That simply fell at his feet As we walk out of the bar Or when I picked him up in my car Or when he ran from me I chased him down so he might see I mean what I say when I say Eternity
The fire’s alight with every fuse that it burns And I just fall in love as the sun burns On the axis of you What the hell am I supposed to do With all these feelings I’ve got That I think time forgot In the aching I feel And was that time real When we hopped a scotch And I pulled into your parking lot To pick you up They say a hand to a glove Is all that you need But you made me bleed On January 21st I didn’t let on when it hurt And you took up with her I just watched without a word And let on I didn’t care You ran a hand through your hair But I was there And I still am Guess that wasn’t part of your plan To keep your guard dog lover throughout the years I’d silence waves like I do your fears Kiss you on the crest And find the man that knows me best
The stars cross themselves Like a holy prayer And I know it’s the past But you are there And there’s summer in my bones As the rubble topples homes Like the foundation of Hill 16 And loving him was the dream As we both match Our patchwork scars And I’m walking home As you’re chasing cars With bubbles in your chest Don’t you know that I love you best Though you’re sitting with her Does she know what we were And still are I’ve no wish to be on par I just want the truth to shine Let it be known that I call you mine
