Lyrics
So tired
Shots of caffeine
Keep awake the eyes that keeps
These tires
Set upon the asphalt while
We drive another thousand miles
This is where I wanna be...
PRE CHORUS
We're big city boys
Capturing the hearts of
Small town girls.
CHORUS
So let’s get rich
And give it all away
Who needs money anyway?
We've got ourselves,
We've got this feeling
Running through our veins
My soul
Fractured like my fragile bones
These trials have taken
Its toll
But everyday I'm getting better
My heartache won't last forever
This is who I wanna be...
PRE CHORUS
CHORUS
BRIDGE
It’s either business suits or combat boots
There’s got to be another way
So give me college books
I'll rearrange the words
And write you lines with hooks
I'm sick of the American Dream....
But my dream...
CHORUS
To be quite frank,
I do not see
What it is you say you see
When you say you see that something
That you see in him
Honestly,
It's quite alarming
How uncharming he can be
And even more so-
How easily you fall for it
But if it’s me that you are missin'
When you close your eyes to kiss him
CHORUS
Here I am! Here I am!
I've always been here waiting
Here I am again
Like a kite, waiting for a breeze
I'm down here on my knees
Here I am
I can read him like a book
It’s safe to say
He’s the glorified antagonist
And you wouldn't like the ending
If I told you it
You wouldn't like what happens
To the girl that falls for him
Oh! It’s me that you are missin’
When you close your eyes to kiss him
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Hear me out
I'm not here to tear you down
I'm just here to break you out
of this prison you've created
This is an intervention...
CHORUS
When you move,
You float
You speak,
And the notes
Roll off your tongue
That i swear- in a way
Makes the trees start to sway
And now you’ve got me movin’…
PRE CHORUS
And we move, yes we do
To our own beat that we make
This whole town’s gonna shake
We’ll make it crumble and quake
And we move...
My heart stays in time
To the beat of your feet
Your kiss is a melody
Flowing through me
So pick up the pace
And chase after me
Cuz now you got me movin’...
PRE CHORUS
CHORUS
And we move, we move
And we move, we move
And we move, we move
And we move
BRIDGE
Take another step in my direction
I need a closer look at pure perfection
Take another step in my direction now
CHORUS
Something is broken
And no one can fix it
Most people don't know
That it’s even missing
A brother, a dagger
A back turned towards danger
Ruining friendship
With malice and anger
PRE CHORUS
And in my mind, the sky's becoming grey
And the clouds are forecasting rain
I've got a glimmer of hope
I've got a glimmer of light
And it's getting me through the night
CHORUS
Why do we choose to do
These things that we do
There's an answer deep inside
And it's tearing apart you
I have never felt
That I could play the part
But I know some things are constant
And it’s working on my heart
The sky tonight
Is riddled with stars
It reminds me of
How small we are
And I'm struggling to be
The person you want me to be
PRE CHORUS
CHORUS
BRIDGE
A hundred years from now
When all the world has changed
Rock's still beating scissors
When we play those silly games
And when I was much younger
Right and wrong were all the same
But you were always there for me
When I didn't know your name
CHORUS
Oh, that girl's got a glitter in her eye
And I think it shines like
We're in love this time
No, no one can change my mind
And I know exactly what they’ll say
But it never made a difference anyway
CHORUS
So take my hand! Take my hand
This is not the end, my friend
So take my hand
Don't be afraid
Because today
I swear this world won’t separate us
No, today is not that day
Say we're young
Say its half a million times
We're in love, and I think that we'll be fine
No, nothing can change our minds
And I know exactly what they’ll say
But I never cared to listen anyways
CHORUS
BRIDGE
You’re the only one for me
When I hold you and you kiss me
I am free
And when I give you my hand
I give you my heart
It’s always been yours, from the start
Take it gently, hold it tight
Don't let go
CHORUS
You were always stronger
When it came this
I know you said you have to leave
I only need five minutes
Then you can have the rest of your life
To ponder this..
CHORUS
What happened to the love songs
After the love was gone?
Did you ever stop to think about;
Did you even stop to think of
What happens to the loves songs
After the love is gone?
What happens if I can’t let go?
Cuz I think that I am still holding on
Your photographs are coming down
And it’s feels so wrong
How quickly did you tear mine down
From the walls that the belong?
You can have the rest of your life
To ponder this…
CHORUS
BRIDGE
And we can (we can)
Turn this around
I know (I know), I know (I know)
We can…
And we can (we can)
Turn this around
I know (I know), I know (I know)
We can if we try
To turn this around
I know (I know), I know (I know)
We can
CHORUS
(I can’t sleep)
(You will be my ghost tonight)
(You’re always in my dreams)
(And this just isn’t right)
