Lyrics
I've been asleep so long.
I’m barely breathing
And your voice is gone.
It’s like silent screaming.
Tried to bite my tongue,
Now im bleeding out one more song
About the death of me.
Now I see so clearly.
I know my funeral’s next weekend but
If you've got plans I'll be understanding ‘cause
Our glass was empty but it seemed full to me.
It only took 10 years to see what you see.
So let's pretend the worst was only a dream
‘Cause I don't wanna face what's coming.
If it was only that easy.
I picked you up outside
With your words still repeating.
Are the purple lights worth all the drinking?
But I know I’m wrong.
I’ve been your enemy far too long;
Stuck in a memory.
Now I see so clearly
I know my funeral’s tomorrow but
If you've got plans I'll be understanding ‘cause
Our glass was empty but it seemed full to me.
It only took 10 years to see what you see.
So let's pretend the worst was only a dream
‘Cause I don't wanna face what's coming.
If it was only that easy.
If it was only that easy.
So sick of the lying; sick of the crying.
I can't forgive myself for watching us burn.
So fuck all the fighting; the shit we’ve been hiding.
I still remember us the way that we were.
The way that we were.
Our glass was empty but it seemed full to me.
It only took 10 years to see what you see.
So let's pretend the worst was only a dream
‘Cause I don't wanna face what's coming.
No, I don't wanna face what's coming.
If it was only that easy.

This is genuinely some of the best songwriting of our generation. Fucking no one is making anything comparable to this sound and it's incredible.

[@ABRKaleb]

This whole album is incredible. And this song tops it all.

God damn bro. 🌹👏

[@adecakaship2486]

Songs where I repeat the same section all the time are really rare, but that vocal part on "Are the purple lights" is just so freakin beautiful. 1:22

[@JayDiOh]

Favorite on the record.

[@absolutfx]

Well, just made a big mistake texting my ex-wife/high school sweet heart because of this song. Thanks Cory.
