lyrics
You, you never would've known
That you were breaking by yourself
When there was no one else to love
And maybe you'll just sit and smile when I sing this song for you
Oh I hope you do, yeah I hope you do
But I, I'd rather be alone
I'd rather keep this to myself
I'd rather never let you know
"Cause baby I can't waste my time by counting little details
Of how I loved you so, and how you still said no
But oh I left it all unsaid
And now these words stay wrapped around my neck
"Cause I know you won't believe
Believe me when I say you're all I need
So tell me I was wrong to think that things were oh so lovely
'Cause I could never find the words to say how much you meant to me
But either way, yeah, I thought you were happy
Darling don't you know that I can see the worry in your eyes
And how am I supposed to feel when you cant make up your mind
Your appetite for sympathy's too much for me to take
'Cause there's not a thing that I could do if these choices aren't for me to make
Oh no, you still want me to stay
Yeah, but I still won't make the grade
I was on my roller skates
But derby girl was still too quick for me
So why'd you have to walk away and leave me to your misery
'Cause now there's nothing left for me to say and I'm sorry
For all the times that I thought you could save me
We were fine 'til I asked if you'd be alright
For a song and a dance at prom except I
Should've known that you would rather think twice
Oh, for a guy like me
Oh Harley
Maybe someday you'll discover that this songs for for you
But you'll run, you'll run away
Oh I never should have fallen for you
'Cause I could never write a song to make you fall in love with me
And if misery's the only thing that's keeping us together
Then it might not last forever
Yeah it might not last forever
No it might not last forever
That you were breaking by yourself
When there was no one else to love
And maybe you'll just sit and smile when I sing this song for you
Oh I hope you do, yeah I hope you do
But I, I'd rather be alone
I'd rather keep this to myself
I'd rather never let you know
"Cause baby I can't waste my time by counting little details
Of how I loved you so, and how you still said no
But oh I left it all unsaid
And now these words stay wrapped around my neck
"Cause I know you won't believe
Believe me when I say you're all I need
So tell me I was wrong to think that things were oh so lovely
'Cause I could never find the words to say how much you meant to me
But either way, yeah, I thought you were happy
Darling don't you know that I can see the worry in your eyes
And how am I supposed to feel when you cant make up your mind
Your appetite for sympathy's too much for me to take
'Cause there's not a thing that I could do if these choices aren't for me to make
Oh no, you still want me to stay
Yeah, but I still won't make the grade

about
Warpstar Tucson, Arizona
In 2011, three guys formed a band and played a handful of shows, then hid in a cave in the middle of the desert for five years. When they came out they released their debut album in 2016. This is the story of that band.
