Stolen Posters Are The Best Company

These 1am songs always hold extra thought when they're alone
They bring extra poignancy when the warmth of the sun is gone
its nights like tonight where i realise i love everything
but the lack of the sound of birds holds extra sting

I started this year with 100 promises
but 6 months in and i've just got cadences
my own choices leave sour consequences
but the days are gone where my heart still races

Waking up deeper in the bottom of a glass than you were last night could break through
to all the girls you never fell in love with and the songs you sang your hearts out to
but the girls are lost and the songs are gone and this feeling will never start to get old
cause the weekend always speaks to me, but the weekend never cares for me

I started this year with 100 promises
but 6 months in and i've just got cadences
my own choices leave sour consequences
but the days are gone where my heart still races

with glass ceilings and rolling hills
the ups and downs are always found
i'm glad this ship is sinking cause
i'm seasick and its getting me down
with glass ceilings and rolling hills
the ups and downs are always found
i'm glad this ship is sinking cause
i'm seasick and its getting me down

I started this year with 100 promises
but 6 months in and i've just got cadences
my own choices leave sour consequences
but the days are gone where my heart still races

Songs About Love Always Sound Like Bad Bon Jovi Covers

The only time i have thats mine is almost wasted on being alive
and i'll drink 330ml bottles in a vain attempt to survive
so i will take each day as it comes and i will regret everything i say
the only thing worse than being alone is having someone and then ruining it all

i'm going to tell you that it's not you
but i can't handle guilt and blame too
i think we should blame the time and the place
it's never going to work, this has got to change

after all these years i'm left with no time to say the words that will redefine
the focus of everything we spent so much effort on, why can't i decide
if this decision is a choice i should never have had to make
if only the actions i'd never done had kept us the same

i'm going to tell you that it's not you
but i can't handle guilt and blame too
i think we should blame the time and the place
it's never going to work, this has got to change

this year is the year we're going to keep our heart
and show everyone else why the fire in our eyes still burns
this year is the year i'm going to change the way i act
and show myself that i can keep to this self-designed contract

i'm going to tell you that it's not you
but i can't handle guilt and blame too
i think we should blame the time and the place
it's never going to work, this has got to change
