Half Measures

Oh, that curb was yours for the moment
Alone, looking back at
Growing up

And the choices that led you here
The attention brings quite the excitement
But commotion will come to peace
And all you'll find left is
Fear
We had your back

Ooh, your mistake was giving up on
Yourself
And now, here you will stay for your
Crimes committed
You will receive everything

The words on the screen read
Indicted
The picture's a broken scene
How tough love feels, it's what you
Need

All these removed and reminded
Of a time when this wasn't
Me

And we were still the best of
Friends
I hope you'll be okay

But your big mistake was giving up on
Everyone
And now, here you will stay for your
Crimes committed
You will receive everything

A new world inside, where
Cold walls feel comfortable
Where straight lines don't curve
And oh, in the time you're gone, your
Cell's forgotten
Remember this: You are missed

We gave our strength, and now we
Have no choice
The bird's flown the coop and broke
His singing voice
We can't wait for you to
Change, we tried
So, until that day
Goodbye

The time on the bus will remind you
Of what you had and how you
Lost it all
But you can't say it wasn't
Your fault

Cause your big mistake was giving up
On everyone
And now here you will stay for your
Crimes committed
You will receive everything

A new world in sight, where
Cold walls feel comfortable
Where straight lines don't curve
In the time you're gone, your
Song forgotten
Remember this: You are missed
You are missed
