Long nights and hard days
Regrets and mistakes
The choices we make
We lived harder than we ever did
There were problems but
We were just kids, we didn’t mean it
We didn’t know what we did
Oh we were just kids
No panic attacks
Moments we could relax
The way your heart tracks through love
All the memories that you’re gonna leave
That you could still chase down
All your dreams
Kids... we didn’t mean it
We didn’t know what we did
Oh we were just kids
Kids... we didn’t mean it
We didn’t care what we did
Oh we were just kids
Oh you’re gonna be just fine
Yeah you’re gonna do it, do it
Oh you’re gonna need some time
Yeah you’re goin’ through it, through it
Oh you’re gonna be just fine
Yeah you’re gonna do it, do it
Oh you’re gonna need some time
Yeah you’re goin’ through it, through it
Long nights and hard days
Kids...we didn’t mean it
We didn’t know what we did
Oh we were just kids
Kids... we didn’t mean it
We didn’t care what we did
Oh we were just kids

Leave It Alone

I think it’s time we got away
So don’t keep me waiting
We’ll be ghosts inside a frame
Forever waving
If I’m lost along the way
Will you keep me straight edge
We’ve got miles and miles for days
Where did the time go?
I want my name back
I tried to love you
But I lost track
Why do mountains
Melt into meadows?
So many questions
I need to know
I can’t leave it alone
No I can’t leave it alone
Set out in the afterglow
Under painted skies
Lost you in the chemicals
That trailed behind
Why don’t real colours show
When it’s dark?
Is grey matter all we are?
Where did the time go?
I want my name back
I tried to love you
But I just lost track
Why do valleys
Turn to volcanoes?
So many questions
I need to know
I just can’t leave it alone
No I can’t leave it alone
When I was younger
I used to see clearer
Now I’m out of focus
When I look in the mirror
Why are diamonds
Cut from destruction?
There’s too much pressure
I just can’t function
Without a lifeline
Without some answers
What am I doing?
When will I ever track down the reasons?
Where do I begin?
So many questions
I’m losing hope
I can’t leave it alone
No I can’t leave it alone
No I can’t leave it alone
No I can’t leave it alone
I can’t leave it alone

Diamonds

Diamonds in the rough
Didn’t search hard enough
Took too long for me to dig in
When I caught your eye
I didn’t mean to call out
But I thought I must be dreaming
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
You…
Diamonds in the rough
Didn’t try hard enough
Took too long for me to see it
Did I dull your shine
All the times I cut you down
I believed you and I could save it
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
In the morning I wake up
And think of you
And when I close my eyes
It’s all that I can do
In the morning I wake up
And think of you
Always, always, always
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you

There's need to panic
Make no mistake
The harder that I tried
The more I had to wait
Too many holdups
So much red tape
It felt like living in
A permanent delay
My friends they told me
You'll find it soon
A theory that was sound
But had a lack of proof
But all that static
Led me to you
I never knew
What they were going on about
I never knew
What they were going on about
I never knew
What they were going on about
There's no short answers
No easy fix
A string of hypotheticals
That never fit
Too many roadblocks
Not well equipped
The worry that your
Heart might not exist
My friends they told me
You'll find it soon
A promise that went over
Like a lead balloon
But all that nonsense
Led me to you
I always figured you
Were out there
But I had my doubts
The more that I looked
On the bright side
The more I burned out
You'll know it
When you see it
But 'til I met you
I never knew
What they were going on about
I never knew
What they were going on about
I never knew
What they were going on about
I always figured you
Were out there
But I had my doubts
The more that I looked
On the bright side
The more I burned out
You'll know it
When you see it
But 'til I met you
I never knew
What they were going on about
I never knew
What they were going on about
I never knew
What they were going on about
I never knew
I never knew
What they were going on about
