Seventeen was the last time that I recognized myself
I've spent three years in a costume
Pretending to be someone else
And I wonder why no one ever calls
Coz I never tried
All my bridges burned right before my eyes
Now I lie facedown
At the 9-5 and realize
Every time you told me you were fine
You just lied
Oh
If I said I've moved on, I'd be lying
I'm never gonna be alright
But I'm trying
I ran away to the city but, I'm hiding
I left my love for a Sweet View, darlin
If I said I've moved on, I'd be lying
I'm never gonna be alright
But I'm trying
I ran away to the city but, I'm hiding
I left my love for a Sweet View, darlin
Well, lately I've been losing sleep
Out on this balcony
This city looks so sweet
When no one's looking down at me
Well I met God but, he didn't feel mine
So I killed him
And now your whole life's a lie
Don't get fizzed with a nihilist
Unless you wanna open your eyes
We dream of something higher
That claims to know our name
An innocent desire
That without, we'd live in vain
Yeah
If I said I've moved on, I'd be lying
I'm never gonna be alright
But I'm trying
So many people tell me things that I don't wanna hear
I tend to look at the bottle and it just disappears
If I said I've moved on, I'd be lying
I'm never gonna be alright
But I'm trying
I ran away to the city but, I'm hiding
I fell in love with a Sweet View, Darlin
If I said I've moved on, I'd be lying
I'm never gonna be alright
But I'm trying
So many people tell me things that I don't wanna hear
