about

February 2011. This was on a release that never made it to a physical copy.

lyrics

It's getting to the point
Where I try to skip ahead
there's really nothing left
but remembering and it's all I did
proving you were wrong
not that it matters now
there's really no argument against
who stood where and how.

but i feel like the fool
that tried to rush right in
so stupid so sure in my ignorance

now i'm the only one here
holding up their end of the bargain
it all reaches a slowing somber
and it doesn't look like it will be -

careful what we say
we can't afford mistakes
another way to explain our planned fall from grace
but i won't cry for casualties.
because between you and
"i have no idea who could possibly love a wretch like" me

thanks for not being so good
you couldn't lie to your best friend
a ghost of who you were and i was oblivious

now i'm the only one here
holding up their end of the bargain
it all reaches a slowing somber
and it doesn't look like it will be starting
