Ave Maria

Didn't give up at 14 when everybody said
 It was just like the dream they had
 See, this is how it goes, in in-and-out flows
 There's no sun that ever lasts
 So come on now, let's wake up, see what you want
 Everyone already has
 Didn't give up at 18 when everybody said
 It was just like the dream they, they had
 Waking up in the sun, sandpaper tongue
 Red stripe across my back
 Hearing your voice sing like a choir
 "What am I looking at?"
 Ave Maria
 Last time that I try to catch you
 I thought if I looked nice, then I would feel nice
 And you would see me right, you would see me right
 But it was an old lie, it was a cold lie
 It was a long night, a long night
 I don't wear a coat on cold days, train to Rahway
 Running down Adderall
 Writing the line of my life, it's finally gonna go right
 And I can justify it all
 But come on, now let's wake up, because it's never enough
 You're always gonna hear me wrong
 I wouldn't give up at 18, 'cause everybody said
 It was just like a dream they had
 
 Waking up in the sun, sandpaper tongue
 Red stripe across my back
 Hearing your voice sing like a choir
 "What am I looking at?"
 Ave Maria
 Last time that I try to catch you
 I thought if I looked nice, then I would feel nice
 And you would see me right, you would see me right
 But it was an old lie, it was a cold lie
 It was a long night, a long night
 ♪
 I thought if I looked nice, then I would feel nice
 And you would see me right, you would see me right
 But it was an old lie, it was a cold lie
 It was a long night, a long-
 I'm throwing out a Hail Mary
 It's gotta get to you, time is ticking away
 I'm throwing out a Hail Mary
 I gotta get to you, time is ticking away
 Ave Maria, Ave Maria
