"Ann Arbor (Be Safe)" lyrics

Let this tear me apart

The distance in your eyes
Hangs like a noose as I asphyxiate and die
And every time you say you're proud of me and I know that that's a lie
If you ever really loved me you would know why I have to go
All you ever really thought about
Was a life
A house as a home

Be safe
Be safe
As I wash us completely away
Be safe
Be safe

Let this tear me apart
Let this pull the air from my lungs
Let this stop me from being the person that I should become

The funny thing about this
Is the only thing I ever wanted was you
And that was the only thing that I could never prove

Be safe
Be safe
As I wash us completely away
Be safe
Be safe
As you drown your sorrow and leave

Let this tear me apart
Let this pull the air from my lungs
Let this stop me from being the person that I should become
Let this tear me apart, yeah

So here's to the ending of
What you believed was love

You're not the person that everyone sees
Not a person that I can believe
You can drown your sorrow but just remember
Hatred stems from the seed

Be safe
Be safe
And you're still drowning
