lyrics

In the glow of a basement show I could always spot you
In every row
Whether or not you were really around
I was screaming at the top of my lungs hoping you could be hear the sound
Of my voice over all that noise always surrounding you
Cut right through
An arrow buzzing from a mile away
I only wanted you to notice I just wanted you to turn my way

Don't try to hold it back when you know what it means
I'm trying everything, everything
Don't try to pretend that it was all just a dream
That's how it always seems

Is this real, is there any appeal, should I still be waiting?
You called it a fling
I'll call it whatever you think I should
Holding onto all the hopes that I have that you'll decide I'm a good
Representation of a modern man: blurry eyes, but a full heart
I won't fall apart
I'll try to prove it to you every day
And every night I'm shooting arrows
Because I don't know the words to say

Don't try to hold it back when you know what it means
I'm trying everything, everything
Don't try to pretend that it was all just a dream
That's how it always seems
