All Time Low

There's more than one Alex at an all time low Trying to stay up because I know some people want to see me fall like snow But then depression kicks in and it's off the walls I go I hope you understand when I say there's more than one Alex at an all time low Trapped inside these 4 walls as my music blares The volume turned up so the outside world can't hear the abuse in here Depression beating me, but the lyrics to the songs remove my fears I got caught in a daydream so now depression wants to prove my nightmares When it comes to my mistakes I've always been forthcoming But depression still wants to ridicule me for my shortcomings Depression doesn't want me to live them down Constantly reminding me of the princess I was dating that I didn't crown "You can't handle a goldfish, but now you want to bait a Piranha" "you had your heartbroken by a regular girl, but now you want a date with Rihanna" I reply I'm strong enough to face my karma I'm just trying to think good thoughts to erase the drama I would have took a bullet for her, but I didn't realise she'd be holding the gun, now it's poor me I'm shot I can't deal with this sober, someone tell the bartender to pour me a shot The more that I learn about love, the more that I'm shocked My love for you is dead, I'm putting everything of yours in a box I feel like screaming, but I don't want anyone to hear all the noise Depression has me at an all time low saying soon we'll really fall out boy I've been lost for a while, now I'm trying to find somewhere to call my home Now you know my battle, you'll understand why Alex Gaskarth isn't the only Alex at an all time low
