Streetlight Manifesto - We Are The Few lyrics

I hope this finds you well
I wrote you this letter
Because we miss you here in hell
Well now, i know it's hard when you
Don't know what to think
And every single smile is a foil
And you're waking up you might try
But, you won't get by until you're crucified
For all the things you try to do
Well I don't care if you sink or swim
And I don't care how you hold it in
As long as you don't bother me
With all the things I don't bother you with
9 times out of 10 you might be right
But what about that time
You know you're wrong?
You sing that same song
And everybody smiles but they'll
Never get along

I'm trying, and I'm trying, and I'm trying


And I'm trying to let go
But everybody's going down tonight

We are the few that won't say nothing right
We are the footsteps fading into the night
Nobody cares, and nobody stares with such
Conviction and I say:
I never wanted this, no one ever wanted this
But they gave it to you so you
Might as well be proud of it
And I don't know where we went wrong
All I know now is
I got to do something right

So come clean
No one should have have to live
With the things you've seen
But, you're living anyway

Well, I stop the car and put her in park
And I step outside- god, I hate this part
When I see what I saw
What I thought was a life
That was more than a chore
I'm just doing what I need to get by
I don't care if you leave or stay
But, you might as well split
Because it's not the same as it was
When we said our last goodbye
And if you want the truth: I
Was hoping one of us would-
Pass away, because it'd be much easier then
We would all get together
And think about when
We were young, we were dumb
We were numb but in love
And I'm done so I'm sending
Out this letter today

I'm trying, and I'm trying, and I'm trying
And I'm trying to let go
But everybody's going down tonight

We are the few that won't say nothing right
We are the footsteps fading into the night
Nobody cares, and nobody stares with such
Conviction and I say:
I never wanted this, no one ever wanted this
But they gave it to you so you
Might as well be proud of it
And I don't know where we went wrong
All I know now is I got to do something right

This has been the best night of my life
This has been the best night of my life
I could have lost my life
And I would have lost my mind
But now I'm fine, and I find
That this has been the best night of my life
This has been the best night of my life
(I still can't believe they had
The heart to apologize)
This has been the best night of my life
(I still can't believe they had
The heart to apologize)
I could have lost my life
And I would have lost my mind
But now I'm fine, and I find
That this has been the best night of my life

And as the day fades no one investigates
Nobody answers when she calls his name
Another victim, somewhere in a shallow grave
I want to hold her and tell her
"It's not your fault"
Na na na it's not your fault na na na

And as the day fades no one investigates
Nobody answers as she calls his name
Another victim, somewhere in a shallow grave
I want to hold her and tell her
"It's not your fault"
Na na na it's not your fault

We are the few that won't say nothing right
We are the footsteps fading into the night
Nobody cares, and nobody stares with such
Conviction and I say:
I never wanted this, no one ever wanted this
But they gave it to you so you
Might as well be proud of it
And I don't know where we went wrong
All I know now
Is I got to do something right

We are the few that won't say nothing right
We are the footsteps fading into the night
Nobody cares, and nobody stares with such
I never wanted this, no one ever wanted this
But they gave it to me so I
Might as well be proud of it
And I know I've done something wrong
All I know now
Is I got to do something right
