Anger, Fear, Doubt

I don't have insomnia
But I'm stuck with sleepless nights
If walls could speak
You would come to find that I'm not who I seem to be.
I'm not a lie, I'm a jar whose contents are sealed inside,
Air tight so nothing can escape.
I'm a very angry person with no good meandering of coping.
I'm hoping one day I'll find one for myself.
Anger, fear and doubt are the closest to me.
Clawing at my back and crawling through my veins,
Anger cuts at my brain and fogs my eyes so I can't see straight.
Fear holds me inside myself
So I cannot break out.
Doubt stomps out my hopes and dreams
Like he's shattering a glass.
I swear, I'm not hateful, afraid or a skeptic.
I'm just trying to find the key to all of the doors
That I've locked behind me.

I'm not taking the time to word this the best way
You make me feel like less; I can barely stand at all.
These two months have been purgatory,
Walking on fences, hanging on tightrope.
I'm waiting for your phone call
I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you.
My throat has been so damn sore
From winter winds and nights spent yelling
"How many times must I repeat myself,
Before you realize it's getting old?"
Thinking about you makes me want to
Pack up my life and travel west.
Countless opportunities on the horizon.
I can finally see things from Jack's point of view.
I don't want you back.

These twelve hour drives
That epitomize the summer
Were always something I looked forward to.
I know it's not the case, I know it's not the case this time.
We left everyone we knew behind
To take you one step farther than we were willing to go.
We left everyone we knew behind
So you could leave us all alone.
These farewell-goodbyes
At six in the morning
Were the worst way to start the day.
But we'll keep driving on knowing what's on the other side of the country.
Six years and counting
Refuse to be silenced
By lack of contact.
We'll write to you in the fall
Expecting to hear that you're fine.
I promise we can go camping before you go.
It seems like time, it got the best of us.
I promise we can go camping before you go.
It seems like time, it got the best of us.

I need to dust the cobwebs off my dreams
It's not been done in a few countless weeks.
I just try to live vicariously
Through the books that I read and the songs I sing.
Rip the label off the bottle.
I just wanna do the same to you.
I swear, I'm making promises
That have nothing to do with you
There's no path that you can take
To lead you to a perfect life,
To make you happy all the time,
To finally make you realize,
Waking up is getting harder than opening your eyes.
