Nine o Seven - Sidelines (Acoustic)

I've been spending life in the Darkside
Trying to find my way to the Greenside
Pretty sure I got left behind somewhere along the way
And I'm not sure If I'm gonna make it
Trying as hard as I can just to fake it
Cuz all that it takes is one shove and I'm done
But I'm not going up in flames

Cuz there's something that I've gotta say
I've been holding it in for three whole days
The way the sunshine hits your face
And the way your freckles never change
Your tired smile, your pale blue eyes
And the fact that I can't sleep tonight
The letters that I wrote don't make it right

Cuz I was sixteen, living in a daydream
Hoping that the grass was greener on the other side
But when you left me, I could feel your heartbeat fade away
You pulled me closer to the other side

I've spent plenty of time hung up on the sidelines
Trying to find my way through the hard times
Pretty sure I got left behind somewhere along the way
But I'm not sure that I've been forsaken
Trying to run from all my mistakes
Cuz all that it takes is one shove and I'm done
But I'm not going up in flames

Cuz I was sixteen, living in a daydream
Hoping that the grass was greener on the other side
But when you left me, I could feel your heartbeat fade away
You pulled me closer to the other side

And when you held me, I ​could feel the sunshine on your face
Fading to skies of grey
The seasons change, the weather stays the same
The grass was green but I was seventeen, yeah

But now I'm eighteen, living in a daydream
Hoping that the grass was greener on the other side
But when you left me, I could feel your heartbeat fade away, yeah
I was sixteen, living in a daydream
Hoping that the grass was greener on the other side
But when you left me, I could feel your heartbeat fade away
You pulled me closer to the other side
