The Rest of My Life

I fell asleep last Saturday
underneath polluted skies
I walked alone in those Jersey nights
and I saw the boardwalk start to fall
the emptiness starts to drown
the quiet corners of this town
and I, late last night, I made my plans
it was the only thing I felt I could do
said goodbye to my best friend
sometimes there's no one left to tell you the truth

It's gonna kill me the rest of my life
let me apologize while I'm still alive
I know it's time to face
all of my past mistakes
it's gonna kill me for the rest of my life

This is my all time low
somehow it feels so familiar
somehow it seems so familiar
I feel like letting go
and every second that goes by
I'm screaming out for second tries
said goodbye to my best friend
sometimes there’s no one left to tell me the truth

It's gonna kill me the rest of my life
let me apologize while I'm still alive
I know it's time to face
all of my past mistakes
I've got to live with them the rest of my life

This is the mess I've made
these are the words I can't erase
this is my life support
shutting down for the final time
and it twists like a blade
and kills me for the rest of my life

If you won't forgive me the rest of my life
let me apologize while I'm still alive
I know it's time to face
all of my past mistakes
it's gonna kill me for the rest of my life
