lyrics
Looking back on these pictures,
Just me, my mom and my sister.
I remember the times we spent together
Eating 'nasty chestnuts' each winter
They've been hurt since that accident
And life just keeps on crashing in
I've let them both down, so disappointed
When the topic comes up they both avoid it
I know though, it's so true
Broken hearts and our broken home came unglued
Too precious women who deserve better than to have me as a burden too
So I stay away and I stay out late and I pray that its them when the phone rings
Everyday, through the pain, that being depressed and alone brings
The worlds moving so fast around me
I fear that all that I love is moving on without me
I'm still in the valley, where you found me
But I'll keep climbing, wanna make you proud of me
In 2013, I developed an addiction to nicotine,
I don't know, it just never felt like a sin to me
But this time next year, I swear I'll be a better me
And none that I hold close will any longer be settling
No more burning bridges, no more setting these pointless traps
You can form an existence through your paradigm like that
Guilty pleasures and life's additctions infinitely caught up in the affliction
But I'm so invested that I hesitate to even try to make a difference
The worlds moving so fast around me
I fear that all that I love is moving on without me
I'm still in the valley, where you found me
But I'll keep climbing, wanna make you proud of me
Wanna make you proud.
Have I made you proud?
The worlds moving so fast around me
I fear that all that I love is moving on without me
I'm still in the valley, where you found me
But I'll keep climbing, wanna make you proud of me
Just me, my mom and my sister.
I remember the times we spent together
Eating 'nasty chestnuts' each winter
They've been hurt since that accident
And life just keeps on crashing in
I've let them both down, so disappointed
When the topic comes up they both avoid it
I know though, it's so true
Broken hearts and our broken home came unglued
Too precious women who deserve better than to have me as a burden too
So I stay away and I stay out late and I pray that its them when the phone rings
Everyday, through the pain, that being depressed and alone brings
The worlds moving so fast around me
I fear that all that I love is moving on without me
I'm still in the valley, where you found me
But I'll keep climbing, wanna make you proud of me
In 2013, I developed an addiction to nicotine,
I don't know, it just never felt like a sin to me
But this time next year, I swear I'll be a better me
And none that I hold close will any longer be settling
No more burning bridges, no more setting these pointless traps
You can form an existence through your paradigm like that
Guilty pleasures and life's additctions infinitely caught up in the affliction
But I'm so invested that I hesitate to even try to make a difference
The worlds moving so fast around me
I fear that all that I love is moving on without me
I'm still in the valley, where you found me
But I'll keep climbing, wanna make you proud of me
Wanna make you proud.
Have I made you proud?
The worlds moving so fast around me
I fear that all that I love is moving on without me
I'm still in the valley, where you found me
But I'll keep climbing, wanna make you proud of me
