I know I should be hurt and sad and angry And believe me, I am I should fill this song with minor chords and whine about How I did the best I can It's nice to know what friends are for But this ain't it It's like you went and turned the knife Before you even stabbed me in the back So go ahead on you merry way I wish you the best, I hope you make it someday 'Cause I am moving on Try not to miss me when I'm gone Thanks for all the compliments, oh I can tell You meant every word And thanks for all the funny jokes, but you should know I never laughed that hard And I know you never thought I could yell And that's just great But if you could hear me now I'd hope it make your ears shake So go ahead on you merry way I wish you the best, I hope you make it someday 'Cause I won't die in your blood It was never where I belonged And if you wanted to see me break Well, I've got some scars But I survived your earthquake And I am moving on Try not to miss me when I'm Miss me when I'm gone If you have something else to say You better say it You better say it You better say it The song's almost over and I can't take it You better say it So go ahead on you merry way I hope that you get your ass kicked someday 'Cause I won't die in your blood It was never where I belonged And if you wanted to see me break Well, I've got some scars But I survived your earthquake And I am moving on Try not to miss me when I'm Miss me when I'm gone

There was a time I couldn’t breathe Without you sinking into me All in my lungs, I’m coughing blood Again You always knew the string to cut To send me in another rut All in my head, and pulling threads Again But I’ve become too raw To play dead While you open me back up Maybe I’m getting cured And I’m not waiting for You to love me more than I can Maybe I’m getting fine And I’m not wasting time Ruminating my remission I found your cord, I cut you off You’re not the only friend that I’ve got Not in my lungs, or coughing blood Again ‘Cause I’ve become too raw To play dead While you open me back up Maybe I’m getting cured And I’m not waiting for You to love me more than I can Maybe I’m getting fine And I’m not wasting time Ruminating my remission Maybe I’m getting cured And I’m not waiting for You to love me more than I can Maybe I’m getting cured And I’m not waiting for You to love me more than I can Maybe I’m getting fine And I’m not wasting time Ruminating my remission My remission My remission Maybe I’m getting cured Maybe I’m getting cured Maybe I’m getting cured

You’re states and streets away And I miss you all the time So I’ll count down till the distance has been closed And I’m back under your lights Keep me on your mind ‘Cause all I need Is you in my daydreams But all I want Is you and Montreal You looked at me like crystal Now I shine when I’m alone Doused my skin in a fire that still burns And lights the way back home All I need Is you in my daydreams But all I want Is you and Montreal I’ll walk outside See you in streetlights Just say you’ll wait Say you’ll wait You’re states and streets away But I'd go there any time All I need Is you in my daydreams But all I want Is you and Montreal All I need Is you in my daydreams But all I want Is you and Montreal

Take a stab at what Has got you stuck this time You set your brain on fire Wonder why you're so much older But don't know how to be alive Tell me where it hurts Is the belly of your gut about to burst 'Cause I can hear them rumbling All those bombs packed in your stomach Maybe you, you should set them off It feels good to feel so raw Like you've been cut by shooting stars Now you're human Now you're human What's it like to be alone Nobody here to calm you down Your head just keeps on talking While you sit there feeling silenced Just scream, scream it all out It feels good to feel so raw Like you've been cut by shooting stars Now you're human Now you're human It feels good to feel so raw Like you've been cut by shooting stars Now you're human Now you're human Now you're human Now you're human Now you're human Now you're human Now you're human Now you're human
