Activity killed you
When are you gonna find half of things that you knew in your body were wrong
I wanted to be friends with you
Now I have come to find it was mistaken
In passion nobody was wrong
And I believed you
They sat down in London
Had to be hard to be hard to keep hating yourself when these people are so well behaved
You did time in Duncanville
Part of you is living there still in a hole where the souls of the lost geared to save
And I believed you
[CHORUS]
When you said happiness
Is all you wanted
You said this
Is all you wanted
How I miss
We almost made it
Happiness
All of your good friends
All of the people like me keep a list of the things in this world that we trust
You are here in after referred to as someone who gave it a shot, gave it off, left the cruel world to us
And I believed you
[CHORUS]
You won't get nervous
You won't come down
You won't feel helpless
You won't be around anymore [x7]
