lyrics

Only 20 we've just begun
I think it's safe to say there's brighter days in sight
It gets better, we're only young
And your advice is to embrace to the darkness of the night
There's a certain truth in the orange air
The smell of cold smoke is just like home
A certain comfort knowing you're there
Knowing one day soon we might not be alone

What have I done, I can't be your friend
I won't be your crutch, don't let it end
Why does everyone watch me fall.
What have I done you don't understand
I can't take it back, why play pretend
Why does everyone watch me fall.

Just 21 with a full tank of gas
I swear we're going somewhere, just maybe not fast
We gotta keep walking straight up this road
'Til we find somewhere we can both call home
Not one for conflict, not one for a fight
This is just what they wanted to set us alight
We've gotten further than anyone else
Battled on shouting not tonight

What have I done, I can't be your friend
I won't be your crutch, don't let it end
Why does everyone watch me fall.
What have I done you don't understand
I can't take it back, why play pretend
Why does everyone watch me fall.

I've fallen more than once before and prayed
I landed on my feet
Fallen thousands more and still I feel I need to retreat
You're on fire and so am I
This is not somewhere I want to die
And I know you're scared
Because you're praying to a god that you know isn't there.

What have I done, I can't be your friend
I won't be your crutch, don't let it end
Why does everyone watch me fall.
What have I done you don't understand
I can't take it back, why play pretend
Why does everyone watch me fall.
