I learned how to love from a family who didn't know how to forget I learned how to live as a person who only held on to regret I was taught how to act, to cover up scars To bottle up feelings like failed dreams of stars You'll never make me proud if you live like that But there's more to my life than the plans you might have This must be just what I needed I don't know what I wanted from you A dark night, a bright light It's just enough to wake me up In a family of graduates, you dropped out The day you came early, you were locked out The thoughts are creeping in again You know I don't want to make a scene Let's go somewhere, I need to be alone Let's go somewhere, I'm gonna fall apart What you saw through the window can't be blocked out Broke every pane to take away your own
