Write what you feel; I'm so done Waiting for the sheets to clean themselves I've gotta Get the fuck out of this town You know it's dragging me to hell At least I'll burn there with you Running in circles I could never Find a place for us to settle Driving hours over state lines Just to find some common ground Always finding something better Every glass we found we shattered I walked away across the pieces It was worth each drop of blood I lost You made a promise that you knew that you'd take back I was always you’d make up for all the things I lacked But you burned our home with the ashes of your cigarettes Now you're all alone Oh I hope you regret this One more weekend with this bottle Then I'm moving on without you Always knew you wore an anchor Never knew it tied me down too You're a storm and I'm a sailor I'll put miles of sea between us All the distance drowns the sound of the rain Forget my name, I've done the same Chorus You said things would be harder You've never been more wrong I've found solace in space Wait for time to erase All the messes you made with your cynical bullshit Chorus

Highways 04:28
Every time that I Look up at the black suburban night sky I see the moon and think of how the wolves would howl At something beautiful despite their knowing that it's out of reach And it reminded me of how we used to be Those warm nights, you had me Around your finger like a bad romantic comedy I told you "Stay happy" and you were gone Well it's been too long now and any hope that I had once left my mind But darling, I can't help missing the way your eyes gleamed on those starlit nights She's trouble with a sunshine smile and She'd never fall this hard Her touch is like fireworks, her eyes brighter than the stars She's crazy with the best intentions Two hearts can break this cliché curse My heart fuels a fire that just won't burn bright enough for her And I've never lied awake this long before Just trying to find the words To pull you close and tell you never to let go And the tremor in my lungs is something people live Entire lives in search of but We found it here, We've found it while we're still so young I've always had my silver tongue and heart of gold But it takes more to pull a hear when it's been Frozen to the core Chorus I know you spent last summer alone And I know you liked it like that Here's to making the best Of the short time we had Here's to making the best Of the nights when I thought There was something beating in your chest Chorus

I won't lie I'm in the worst state of mind Haven't slept in a week But when I drink I'm just fine I see your picture and stare And forget you're not here For a second things feel fine But you don't see me anymore at all And I know you're still out there breaking hearts And I don't know where I'd be If you hadn't broken me But I can't put myself back together till you come back to me I won't lie, I've been hiding too long I built walls of my failures and built them too strong I'll look past them with pride now I'm treading the waters just fine But you're on my mind Chorus And I've still got pictures on nightstands They fall to the floor every now and then There's just something In The rear view mirror Yeah I still believe in the good Times When you were mine Chorus

How'd it feel To wash the sheets a second time I know that it hurts on my end Hold this close The pain will help to make the good times bette r Like rain makes better weather We were bright like the sunrise Washed over the suburbs each day in the fall And we were fast like the summer We knew it would never last at all Make no mistake, this is me This is where I wanna be One last time I ask you not to throw away The photographs we posed for One last night I'm sick if sleeping all alone I'm strangling my pillows Trying to hold on to you Trying and failing I know this is bad news Chorus

We came here when we couldn't sleep We came here when heartbreak was all we could see We came here to laugh till we cried We came here when this was the only place to hide No matter what the world threw down This was the only place in town To come and heal when we had been hurt To find a little peace when we were Broken and heartless But that didn't stop us The stars were beneath us, and smoke filled the air We talked till the sun rose And fogged up the windows Yeah I know for sure that we grew the most here at the top of the world This is my refuge when suburbia feels barren This is my castle when my house is not a home When all the bombs fall, this place saves me from the fallout This is the place I go to feel like I'm alone When the streets feel like oceans and my sails tumble down This is where I take back the helm Chorus I hope the memories that I've made don't fade Of finding solace, I feel like I've been saved Chorus

Tuesday, 2 A.M. In the parking lot again Of the walmart up the street From house I used to live in It's been hard just getting by And I hope that things will end And I'd kill to have the chance To brush it off and start again So please Tell me Where did the time go? Are you with me or are we Better on our own I can't read All the signs on this new road So if you could, tell me Where did the time go? At first it seemed these years would just drag on A bridge that never reached that final chorus in a song And no one has it figured out just yet and it scares me to death To stare at a clean slate with nothing in hand Chorus If I had one wish id wish for Another chance to soak it all in And if I had my way, then this stage Would be my home all over again But all those things All good things Must come to an end Remember the ending, remember the star Remember the friends and remember the heart Remember the rain the day you crashed your car Remember the people who made you the person you are
