College Try - Nothing to Write Home About (Pull Me In)

Shattered dreams
Snowy streets
This is what home feels like to me
Haven't seen
A color scheme
Since you the day that you left
Left me faded
While you waded
Through the waters I was flowing
From my eyes never open

I walked away from you
Before you walked away from me
I'm the one that drew the line
After the words you chose to say to me
So tell me something that I've never heard before
Just enough to finally let it slip out
You were wrong

So understand, I'm a little bit skeptical
Of the words you sowed so neatly
Tie it up into a bow
And present it to me in stasis
Your ignorance, and arrogance
Pushed me away with hast
But I mustn't be too hasty
Everything will go to waste

I walked away from you before you walked away from me
I'm the one that drew the line, I guess on that we can agree
So tell me something I've already heard before
Just enough to take back you said you're sorry for

And now I'm standing on the edge of the ocean (Pull me in)
Oh pull me to the edge this land mass is sinking
And I'd rather push out with the tide as it washes me away
Then to drown in my sorrows for another day

I don't miss you
I miss what you did for me
I wrote song for you
The way you asked me too
So tell me are you happy?

I'm gonna lay it all out for you
I don't think I can feel a single shade of blue

The idea of me ingrained in your memory
Is just a shell of the boy who died in '14
Maybe I'm just waiting for my health to deteriorate
I've let so many go before me
So how long will I have to wait?
How can I be justified when
I'm slowly stealing time
Away from everything
That's so loosely defined
As I navigate the golden coast
I swear I can feel you ghost next to me

So pull me in
(Pull me in)
Because I know how this all ends
I'm in the shadow of everything I could've been
So pull me in
(Pull me in)
Because I know how this all ends
I'm in the shadow of everything I could've been

The idea of me ingrained in your memory
Is just a shell of the boy who died in '14
Maybe I'm just waiting for my health to deteriorate
I've let so many go before me, so how long will I have to wait?

I never meant to make you cry
There's just so much on my mind
I feel like the bridges I've burned have left me exiled
On an island lost at sea
Named after her majesty
The queen of every pot hole that's been etched into her streets

Settle in the undertow
Moving fast and thinking slow
Has brought you right back to the spare room of your parents home
So breathe in start again
Chapter 6: make amends
Go back to where you belong and try to settle in
