There are a number of cities, towns, and regions known as Lakeview:
There's a little voice in my head
It's telling me to move on
But I'll never, I'm gonna hold on
To every word you said
It wasn't fair to me
You had to figure shit out
It felt like time dragged on and on
This is my note to you
Words I couldn't bare to speak
I'll bite my tongue until it bleeds
Through my grinding teeth
I'll sing this loud
I know that this wasn't your intention
You're that something I've been missing
The pieces fall into place
We slowly realize the promises we forgot
Are the only ones we made
Let's play it safe I won't speak a word
But when I'm lying next to her
I'm still looking into your eyes
I'm still looking into your eyes
The stars in the sky keep me gazing
Hazy vision I try to keep steady
Some so bright the others fading away
I want you to know that I'm barely holding on
I hope there's a piece of me left after this
I'm not quite sure who I am anymore
We'll try and we'll try but will never understand
Til someone speaks up and says I love you
The pieces fall into place
We slowly realize the promises we forgot
Are the only ones we made
Let's play it safe I won't speak a word
But when I'm lying next to her
I'm still looking into your eyes
We both know this isn't over
It's just the calm before the storm
The time it takes to tell you how I feel
We both know this isn't over
It's just the raindrops before the flood
I don't wanna miss us but I do
I'm just searching for the right words
I don't want to miss out
But I think we bit off more than we can chew
I don't want to miss us but I do
I just want you to know I'm done
Pretending it's all okay
Like this is just what I wanted
Take a second and speak your mind
Roll the dice I'm sick of waiting
We both know that I am everything that you need
I don't want to miss out
But I think we bit off more than we can chew
I don't want to miss us
I don't want to miss us but I do
And I can't forget those nights
That we would spend up waiting
And I was waiting on this to change
You told me to take you for granted
So why? Why shouldn't I just walk away?
I chose these words, cause I've
Been patient with you.
Set me free, from these chains
That have held me from the truth
You're so consistent, and your
Lips understanding.
Can you just let me walk away
Can you just let me walk away
You're so commanding, was that the real nature?
Then you will always be the same.
I'm sorry I couldn't be
The man that you needed
I can't believe that
I'm still breathing
If love is what you need
Well let me go
Release, release me from this place
Of your satisfaction
I tried my best, you let me down
Too many times
Every word you speak
Gets further from the truth
You told me I was your escape
Why would I wish if that was true
And I think we've had enough
Cause this has been consuming us
I'll watch this fall back to the ground
I'm sorry I couldn't be
The man that you needed
I can't believe that
I'm still breathing
If love is what you need
Well let me go
I'm sorry I couldn't be
The man that you needed
Just tell me that you'll be waiting
If attention's what you need
Well than it shows
So pray for your false life?
Beg for your life, this will be closure
All hope is lost, it's starting
It's starting over
Let's start this over
This isn't the same game
We played when we were young
If this is love, I better go
If this is love, I better go
You had your tight hold on me
I gathered some courage and gave it my best attempt
Can you hear me calling
I'm tired of chasing my own tail
I've been sitting here for days
Circles are getting us nowhere but lost at this point
Nowhere
This never meant more to me
More than any cover shoot for a magazine
I'll take my dreams as far as they will go
Snap back to reality
The only one in control of my life is me
And I'm cutting ties like a mad man
Know looking back you'll regret this as long you live
As long as you live
I'm tired of playing all these selfish games
I never asked that much
I never asked that much of you
I once had faith in you, but now I know
True color never fades
I once had faith in you, but now I know
True color never fades
You thought you had the best of me
But from the beginning I kept my eyes on you
Because I know what you do
A lesson learned don't burn the bridges you build
Because playing with fire will only leave you burned
I stuck my neck out on the line for you
And sutures won't close these wounds
Once a thief and always filled with deceit
Was it so hard to keep your word
I want the world to see
What a hollow shell you've become
Your true color will never fade
How does it feel to be exposed
You had your tight hold on me
I gathered some courage and gave it my best attempt
Did you hear me calling
I'm tired of chasing my own tail
I've been sitting here for days
Circles are getting us nowhere but lost at this point
Nowhere
I held on to you like you were gold
But even that goes dull
You know I have a better chance
With a shot in the dark
The only useful thing that I've taken from all of this
Is never lower your eyes to an enemy
I understand we all have demons inside of us
Twisting every thought
Grinding them into a speck of dust
I thought I'd never let go
Not for a moment
You proved just how simple it was to forget me
So go, go just leave me alone
'Cause I'll be alright on my own
I don't need a selfish queen to take advantage of me girl,
Pack the memories and get the hell out of my mind
Back to where it all began
Childish love was at the root
I had you sitting in the palm of my hand
I thought I'd never let go
Not for a moment
But that's exactly what I'm doing and I'll be better for it
So go...
Just go...
So go, go just leave me alone
'Cause I'll be alright on my own
I don't need a selfish queen to pity me girl,
I know that time heals all
Was it so easy to throw away what we had
Every year was a waste so this is goodbye
I couldn't change a thing even if I tried
GET OUT OF MY LIFE
Girl I think it's crazy
Are you out of your fucking mind
I should have known
I should have seen this coming
You liar
You fucking coward
So go, go just leave me alone
'Cause I'll be alright on my own
Baby I don't need a selfish queen or you to pity me
Girl I know that time heals all
Every year was such a waste
Correct me if I'm wrong,
I'm just guessing this is goodbye
No need for names
You know exactly who you are
You like to think
You like to think that nothing's changing
But you're alone in this and there's a reason
It's hard to admit when you know that you're wrong
When every line and every lie is piling on
Now I ask of you, just don't let me down
Just don't let me down
Just don't let me down
Now I ask of you, don't be sorry now
Don't be sorry now
Don't be sorry now
I'd rather be homesick than warm in my bed
Far away from the world and the things that you said
I won't stand by your side and beg for affection
I shouldn't have to scream just to get your attention
And I'll save revenge for another day
I'll save revenge for another day
I'm losing sleep again
And I'm constantly reminded of the times that we tried
to be friends
You never cared
So where were you when no one else was there?
(Where were you when no one else was there?)
I'd rather be homesick than warm in my bed
Far away from the world and the things that you said
I won't stand by your side and beg for affection
I shouldn't have to scream just to get your attention
And I'll save revenge for another day
I'll save revenge for another day
I'd rather be homesick than warm in my bed
Far away from the world and the things that you said
I won't stand by your side and beg for affection
I shouldn't have to scream just to get your attention
I'd rather be homesick than warm in my bed
Far away from the world and the things that you said
I won't stand by your side and beg for affection
I shouldn't have to scream just to get your attention
And I'll save revenge for another day
Whatever happened to you
Telling the truth
Now this will be the hardest
Thing that I'll do
This conversation is getting old
Just so you know I thought
The world of you
Why couldn't you let me know
That you were begging for attention
Cause I wouldn't have let you go
(I need to leave this light obsession)
To hold you down
To watch you drown
I'm taking back
Every breath I've wasted on you
Whatever happened to the person you were
This war between us has been tearing us apart
My hands are stained, what can I do
This is the only thing that I have left
Why couldn't you let me know
That you were begging for attention
Cause I wouldn't have let you go
(I need to leave this light obsession)
To hold you down
To watch you drown
So lay back
(And watch me take this from you)
Let's make this count tonight
We'll turn out every light
Don't let me go, just let me take over
Don't let me take your time
Don't let me down
Let's make this count tonight
We'll turn out every light
Til you show me what you got
I gave you everything you asked
But now I'm taking it back
Let's make this count tonight
We'll turn out every light
Don't let me go, just let me take over
Don't let me take your time
Don't let me down
Let's make this count tonight
We'll turn out every light
Til you show me what you've got
And now there's nothing left
I'm taking back every promise I made
You can count on me
I'm taking back every promise I made
You can count on me for nothing
And I can't forget those nights
That we would spend up waiting
And I was waiting on this to change
You told me to take you for granted
So why? Why shouldn't I just walk away?
I chose these words, cause I've
Been patient with you.
Set me free, from these chains
That have held me from the truth
You're so consistent, and your
Lips understanding.
Can you just let me walk away
Can you just let me walk away
You're so commanding, was that the real nature?
Then you will always be the same.
I'm sorry I couldn't be
The man that you needed
I can't believe that
I'm still breathing
If love is what you need

Beg for your life, this will be closure
All hope is lost, it's starting
It's starting over
Let's start this over
This isn't the same game
We played when we were young
If this is love, I better go
I hope you know,
This isn't who I am.
I'm sorry for the way this has been.
And I, I want this so badly,
I'd do anything to make this up to you.
I've given up on these pathetic things that have tried to tare up apart.
(Now this is killing me)
These second chance i threw the all away.
No looking back I've lost everything.
How, how could I let this replace our love?
(I'm ashamed of all that I've become)
How, how could I've been so blind.
When everything was right before my eyes.
(Chorus)
If we can make it through this rain,
Then we can find our way through anything.
Just remember our promise,
To keep this honest.
You're honestly everything to me.
This cavity is just a hole,
An empty promise of a soul.
I told you I could change.
(I told you I could change)
Just give me one last chance to prove this to you.
Just please remember this.
I, I'd walk the world for you.
(I'm ashamed of all that I have done)
I forgot what meant the most to me,
And that was you.
(Chorus)
If we can make it through this rain,
Then we can find our way through anything.
Just remember our promise to keep this honest.
You're honestly everything.
I'm not going down without a fight.
(chant) I'm not going down without a fight.
I hope you know this isn't who I am.
I'm sorry for the way that this had to end.
COME DOWN!
(group vocals)
I wish this didn't,
I wish this didn't have to,
I thought you said that you've
Never felt so right
But i just can't take the fight
So i have to know how
Much longer will this
Carry on, cause you know I
I would never lie to you
(I would never)
I'm sorry but i'm done
I'm done with your games
I won't learn that way
This time, go ahead and tell
All of your friends that i am
Through with you
(With you)
And you should know
I hope this works out for you
Cause i'm still broken
From all the things we've been
Through
And this is for the times we
felt alive and you can't tell me
I'm not ready
So take a look into my eyes
And i'll take this slow
Somehow you always find your way around
Every single worthless thing
Finding every single piece of this puzzle
That's only held together with the
Love that we had in our life
Well I know you want this to waste
Some things will never change and
Your life won't mean anything
This is where you cross the line
The time has come and this time is mine
I'm sorry but i'm done
I'm done with your games
I am through with you
And you should know i hope this works
Out for you, cause i'm still broken
From all the things we've been through
And this is for the times we felt alive
And you can't tell me i'm not ready
So take a look into my eyes as i let you go
I'll find a way, to let you forget me
Your on your own
Your on your own
And i want you to know i hope
This works out for you cause
I'm still broken from all
The things we've been through
This is for the times that we felt alive
So this is how it's working out
I've been lying to myself
A few more days and I'll have to say goodbye
I need you now
I need your touch
Cause this picture's not enough
To help me fall asleep tonight
(Just tonight)
I'll be holding on even when your gone
And I'll be waiting, you know I'm
Waiting for you to make your move
So pick your price, so say goodbye
I'd walk this earth a thousand times
For one more night by your side
So I can see your smile
Tell me that your coming home
I wish we had more time
So I can let you know
Darling I'll be waiting
For you to come back home
You and I, we're one alike
I never thought this is how we'd
Say goodbye
Forever's not too long if I'm waiting
For you
(Waiting for you)
I need you now
I need your touch
Cause this picture's not enough
To help me fall asleep tonight
I'll be holding on even when your gone
And I'll be waiting, you know I'm
Waiting for you to make your move
So pick your price, So say goodbye
I'd walk this earth a thousand times
For one more night by your side
So I can see your smile
Just one more time
By your side
I'd do anything
Just to see you smile
Tell me that your coming home
I wish we had more time
So I can let you know
Darling I'll be waiting for you
To come back home
This feeling will never change
This city will never be the same
Come on!
So if this ended today
Could you look at me the same
Because tomorrow I forget your name
Always tried to forget you were alive
And I'm sure you'd do the same for me
And I think it's time that we make
This happen, it's time to say goodbye
Open up your eyes, you were a waste of time
You were a waste
You would carry me
And I needed to breath
Your so not worth it
Your heart was in too deep
You need to reach for the surface
But she'll never listen. No!
So here we are again
We'll try to make this last
You said you'll take me, I never will
And I'll never take you back
I'm rebuilding what
You've done to our lives
So hold your breath to try to
Save your worthless life
And I think it's time
That we make this happen
It's time to say goodbye
Open up your eyes
You were a waste of time
You were a waste
You would carry me
And I needed to breath
Your so not worth it
Your heart was in too deep
You need to reach for the surface
Woo.
