The Fray - Absolute

Ive seen this one before, the girl she gets away
Everybody knows it but no one tries to stop it
Cause she barely even knows him but if she could see inside
Everything is quiet as she waits to tell him who she is

Is this all we get to be absolute

Quiet but Im sure there is something here
Tell me everything cause I want to hear

Its a kiss sits upon on her lips that waits for planes and battle ships
She wants to be a dancer and he has got a picture
On his wall and its a sailor in a new port every night
Yet man was born to trouble like sparks fly upwards innocent

Is this all we get to be absolute

Quiet but Im sure there is something here
Tell me everything cause I want to hear

All we are and all we want
40 years come and gone
All we are in photographs
Will never be taken

Quiet but Im sure there is something here
Tell me everything cause I want you here
Quiet but Im sure there is something here
Tell me everything cause I want to hear

I'm standing under a white flag

"even when i tried to give up, even when i tried to concentrate on other things, for some reason, i just end up thinking about her. to the extent that i've become wretched, to the extent that i hate myself, i love her. but, i think, i'm horrible."

"that sometimes, when i think about me and her, i'll think about the lifelong happiness that she brings, and the lifelong curse that i'll bring to her, that i'll disappointment her so much."

decided that i'll let go some people.
simply because they're not worth my time to constantly think about, putting it simply.
sometimes i wonder that it was just convenience sake that allowed some friendships to last.
i will work hard for my success and i will not stop.

sometimes my life feels like a drama.
sometimes ah.
