Strangers

I won't hold you down

Pick heads off forget-me-nots

The faded light of memories

The spirit of the summerhouse

It still hasn't left me

A haze over the house we shared

A flag of permanent defeat

I'm screaming at the August sun

I know you can hear me

Over and over in my head (Over and over)

I haven't convinced myself yet (We're not getting older)

Won't force you down

Never will I guess I'll just see you around

Heart beats me down

Hollow now this house is a burial ground

I guess I'll just see you around

So lay the weight of your world on me

Upset was overdue

I feel empty like your bedroom

The pressure's building it's caving the walls

Trace the cracks and just wait for it to swallow me whole

How stupid I've been to think it'd be easy

Hostile and faceless but you see right through me

Won't force you down

Never will I guess I'll just see you around

Heart beats me down

Hollow now this house is a burial ground

I guess I'll just see you around

I left you waiting by the train

I took shots with shaky aim

And I know it's desperate but you and I keep circling the same drain

And it still feels the same when I'm standing in the rain

I know it's desperate but I see you on every stranger's face

So lay the weight of your world on me

I'll keep it off your back until you get back up on your feet

You're always doing the same for me

Won't force you down

Never will I guess I'll just see you around
