Ave Maria - The Early November

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

I thought if I looked nice, then I would feel nice (Ave Maria)

And you would see me right, you would see me right

But it was an old lie, it was a cold lie (Ave Maria)

It was a long night, a long-

I thought if I looked nice, then I would feel nice (Ave Maria)

And you would see me right, you would see me right

But it was an old lie, it was a cold lie (Ave Maria)

It was a long night, a long-

Waking up in the sun, sandpaper tongue (Ave Maria)

Red stripe across my back

Hearing your voice sing like a choir

«What am I looking at?»
