lyrics

For months on end
You cared enough
About the future
But I fucked that up
I turned away any signs of progress
And for what it's worth
I guess I'm stuck
Writing songs about growing up
I'm just getting taller

Cause you're alone
And I'm afraid
There's nothing much left to lose
There's nothing much left to lose
Cause you're alone
And I'm afraid
There's nothing I wouldn't do
There's nothing that I can do

I don't want to play the starring role
In the only show I've never seen
I feel left out I feel hungover
I'm only sad
Cause I'm getting sober
Just let me breathe
Just let me breathe

Give me all you've got
Till you've got nothing
Till you've got nothing
Give me all you've got
Till there's nothing left
Till there's nothing left

This stone will never sink if it's not thrown
But who's supposed to be in control
This stone will never sink if it's not thrown
But who's supposed to be in control
In control

Give me all you've got
Till you've got nothing
Till you've got nothing
Give me all you've got
Till there's nothing left
Till there's nothing left

I feel so numb
Do you hate who I've become?
I want to play my part
But I'm waiting for life to start
We haven't come far
