we are nothing,
don't ya know?
we lost it all down, down, down the road
so pack your bags
come on lets go
there's some empty graves
for these restless bones, these restless bones
god I need a place to rest this soul…
so bring me close,
bring close, close, closer dear
let me see it, see it in your eyes
that you want me here
that you want, want, want me here
I want to be something you hold
something that you're afraid to let go
but souls get heavy
and hands get full
don't you know that we're not ready
woah
we're not ready, don't you know
so bring me close,
bring close, close, closer dear
let me see it, see it in your eyes
that you want me here
that you want, want, want me here
something's wrong
this i fear
i can tell by the way that you talk
that you're not here
when you're back
if it's true
won't you bring me close
bring me close close closer to you
let me see it in your eyes that you want me too

i was born on a tuesday
i took two huge gasps of air
this world is mine for the taking
once i figure out, once I figure out how
i am starting to lose feeling
we never quite grew out of ourselves
we're still kids, we're still kids
i promise you this
we're still kids i swear
underneath all of it
we'll sit and reminisce
talk about the old days
pretending to be grown up all the time
when the truth is we're twenty something
and still threatening to run away
when there's nothing
and no one
holding us here in the first place
i fell in love on a thursday
i've held my breath ever since
this heart is yours for the taking
tell me if you ever end up finding it
i am starting to lose feeling
we never quite grew out of ourselves
we're still kids, we're still kids
i promise you this
we're still kids i swear
underneath all of it

Join at the Neck

Ive got some flaws just like you too
We have the choice to hide it
Or wear out our hearts
And im still deciding which one works out best
But The more I admit I’m human
The more they resist
Im thinking ill crawl back
And build up that shell
Ill keep my thoughts to letters
I’ll never send out
And maybe these songs
But thats risky too
I just want to do right
But I fuck up still
Wish I could just be myself
But it doesn’t seem to be enough
To anyone now
Can I just start again
Hey my name is caitlin
Wish we could be friends
But the world keeps on movin
But it was a nice attempt
Too fast for us to begin
I grew up In kansas
And I like to drive at night
Maybe you could come too
But I wont go any deeper
Here are the facts
I like the way the sun feels
And my favorite colors red
Tell me your story
But I cant let you in Im sorry I cant let you in
It will end up a mess
And I cant do that again
I’m either impossible
Or hopeless romantic not meant for love
But both of those options
They really do suck
Im holding on to dear life
And I just want you to know
That I really do love you with all of my soul
I want to look cute
But I suck at that
Ive never been good
Choosing the clothes on my back
I want to impress you
Remind you that
Im still a girl
Most definitely a friend
I want those to words
To join at the neck
I want to everything
I want to be everything
I want to be everything to you
wanna be perfect
But not exact
I want to be the best thing youve ever had
And I know it sounds stupid
And fairy tale esque
But I want to be together until the end

I wish that you’d walk through my door
Maybe I deserve to be alone
You told me it’s not my fault
You had to find yourself
And I found myself lost
I’m taking back your thoughts
Out of my head
Out of my heart
I’m pushing out your ghost
Out of my bed
Out of my home
After you leave
Will there be anything left for me
How is it you’ve got every part of me
How is it that I’m left with nothing
Im afraid to say that I’m strong
I know one day that I wont be left
Just skin and bones
I’m taking back your thoughts
Out of my head
Out of my heart
I’m pushing out your ghost
Out of my bed
Out of my home
I’m pushing out your ghost
Out of my head
Out of my home
I’m pushing out your ghost
Out of my bed
Out of my heart

Don’t lie to me anymore
Don’t say my name
the way you said it before
You can bet that I’ve got
Stories to tell
These hands get so full
You know that they’re bound to spill
I’ll stay but not forever, baby
It’s today not tomorrow waiting
While you’re looking over your shoulder
Love, I wither
Take these bones so you can break them
Clash them against the wall
So we can hear them
Hang them up so we can see them
Hang them up so I can see them
I’ll stay but not forever, baby
It’s today not tomorrow waiting
While you’re looking over your shoulder
Love, I wither
Leather jacket pulled up high
Don’t you ever look up at the sky
Is that smoke coming from your lips?
I guess I never was much of a winter kid
