lyrics

As we drive away
I see the years as they still slip away
Yellow and grey
These lines can erase
every bad feeling we can’t test our fate
and every new portrait I paint
separate new lines on the freshest pavement
and in my head
swerve the lights on just ahead
Out by the shed
I run through weakness and strengths that i dread
making amends like everyone else
I feel a rush of insatiable dread
with every new friendship I left
Scars as they circle my broken heart and
remember then
to leave the light on
flashing red

As we drive away
I seem to feel like I need this escape
Breaking my faith
with not much to say
I feel the weight of a thousand new waves
Could I remember my own
storyboard changing with each new day gone
Before we go
we’ll leave the light on
to watch it glow

Now we’re breaking through the surface
Blinded by the weight, now gone
Every new escape is worth it
Blinded by the weight of the dirt before we reach the ground

Long drive
You’re breaking the banks
Feel it in the tires
Feel it
Under the tow
Breaking through the winter
The surface
of what we know
Breaking through the windows
Just for a moment
Following the shadows
Overs the rails
Now in control
We can see the headlights glowing
Just up ahead
Battling to keep our focus

If we all give up on the little things
Losing our minds as the tide runs out
If we all give up on the little things
Shifting our focus to something else
Just stay
Don’t say
you’re leaving
Just stay
Don’t say
you’re leaving
