Lyrics

I wrote my first song with you in mind I was 12 years old, it was 2005 A friend burned me a CD, said to listen to it all He scribbled in Sharpie what the record was called Already heard I hung on every word And now we're neighbors Are you the monster it means you must be? Have you taken the time To change the sickness inside? Or are you still weak? Play crack the lie Are you still weak? Play crack the lie Are you still weak? Through all of the heartache, all the tears that I cried Sixteen in the suburbs, my sensitive eyes And you were our guy, to shine the light with a ballpoint pen When you talked to Christ, I was listening in Already heard I hung on every word And now we're neighbors I saw you walking out of Kroger last night And I wondered if you might Have killed the Devil inside Or are you still weak? Play crack the lie Are you still weak? Play crack the lie Are you still weak? Stephen got married when I was 14 I was fallin' in love with a girl named Casey But I took too long to untie my words And she moved on before I found the courage So I stayed in every night, felt fatal in bed Your Favorite Weapon was playin' in my head And all the pain you sang I shared in too Till I would lie awake hopin' one day maybe you Could sing my songs like I sang yours And be a friend to me, you could be my mentor But everything changed when the truth came out And the seeds you planted lay dead in the cold ground In the ground, in the ground, in the ground
