I was lied to when I was told life was fair,
And that someone would always be there,
I hated myself more than anyone else.
I was so unhappy with the cards I was dealt.
When I was a child,
My castle was my home,
Now I walk down empty streets,
Memories and me alone,
It’s easier to burn a bridge then to cross it,
To slip, give in, give up,
Move on and try to forget.
More has been said in silence
Than can ever be spoken in words,
Secret’s shared, and promises kept,
And feelings that will never be cured.

i feel like nick was reading my mind when he wrote this the first time i heard it anyway. i've been where he's been when he wrote this song. i'll never forget that feeling. it sucks that he's gone.
I love this song, but it's kind of bullshit to agree because everyone feels this way at one time in life at least. Life is not fair, and you will be alone untill you go out and do something about it, but still it will never be perfect. But you should never give up, that's what it means to live
