lyrics

Back in grade school, when I met you, back when life was free and fun
When I hated all the pretty things, there was one that I loved
Oh Aliza, girl you stole my heart the day I saw your face
Then you ran with it far, far from this place

And that picture on your wall it's gonna fall, it's gonna fall
When the earth, it starts to shake, will you notice it at all?
And if your lies, they hold the world together, stitches always tear
You're still the only voice I ever hear

And this ringing in my ears won't ever stop, won't ever stop
Until I fight off all these demons and stop staring at that clock
I guess it's hard to understand when we're still worlds apart
It's always Death or Glory whole you're ripping out my heart
But I guess you knew that right up from the start

I'm and actor, I'm a liar, I pretend it doesn't hurt
I keep moving and ignore my wounds or wipe them with some dirt
I drink and smoke cheap cigarettes and I drown it out with noise
And I visit the sea to try and fill the void

Oh Aliza, oh Aliza you sure put me in my place
I will bury my head in the sand and try to hide my face
I'll write songs about you and hope you hear them
Wondering if this current flows both ways
While I'm reading all those letters that I never got the chance to send your way
Oh they say the sun shines brightest after rain
But who the hell are they?
