We met that day in the library, her hair and my high waisted jeans,
My friends sat watching, and she saw right through me.
Guess I was the one, the one to go to jail, for all the things we shared,
And that’s okay with me.
Analyze this like a poem,
If you have scars then why not show them?
And I’m here to say
We're ready now to take the blame and
​
We should lay ourselves in the sun, and let it dry.
We’re all the guilty ones, we’re all the guilty ones
just trying to make it by.
Lay it all out by the sun and let it dry,
we’re all the guilty no longer trapped by
The ecosystem x3
​
No, don’t need a middle man, I played Switzerland,
For you and for him, but we were all to blame.
Wait, I’m not here to point blame, but sometimes sorry’s a game,
And nobody else is concerned, about this but me.
Sorry I was green with envy,
I’d go back in time and bite me,
But I’m here to say we’re ready to take the blame and
​
We took ourselves in the sun,
And let it dry.
We’re all the guilty ones, we’re all the guilty ones trying to make it by.
Lay it all out by the sun and let it dry,
we’re all the guilty no longer trapped by
The ecosystem x3

So please take this as an apology,
For the me you’ve seen,
It’s not all there is,
I promise.
But what we had,
We had something great,
But I’m alive,
I realized a little too late.
(All of the tension and all of the buildup, all of the nightly 2 am freak phone calls)
(All of the days we spent pretending that she was not the reason we were ending)
(All of the good times I still will cherish, sharing those secrets that we’ve exploited)
(Now we just shit talk like it’s a language, open me and see my pages are faded)
But I know
Everything you’ve said
All about me
And I’ve made this all about me.
We should lay ourselves in the sun,
And let it dry.
We’re all the guilty ones, we’re all the guilty ones trying to make it by.
Lay it all out by the sun, and wait so I,
Can see everything and no longer trapped by
The ecosystem,
The ecosystem,
The ecosystem.
