Say you're all heart but that’s not what I see
You’re getting stuck in my head
So clinical in your prose, why bother
You'll just end up in a strange bed
Diagnose me please, baby
You always know when something’s wrong
Everything will be so much clearer
When you send me your favorite song
Couldn’t wait to see you in the light of day
Away from all those drugs they warned us not to take
(But we did anyway)
Thought of clever words aimed to make you stay
But you just went your own way!
Misery loves flattery
I’ll burn out just to feed your shine
I’m tearing off half my clothes just to find out
where you drew the line
Hold on to what you have right
Don’t confuse it with what you left
The places you hope will make you whole
Are just the same ones that caused the wreck
Couldn’t wait to see you in the light of day
Away from the drugs and cheap wine and mixtapes
(It played and it played)
Thought of clever words aimed to make you stay
But you just found a new subway!

(Seems like you’re good and lost x2)
Driving drunk in Chinatown
All the lights blurring around
Happy faces in restaurants
Rats In style, let’s all get caught
Welcome to the fallout
Of all the nights you never went out without her
Smoke you up and drink you down
Apathy through light and sound
A man on a leash that's tasked with honor
Take the badge off, round the corner
Welcome to the fallout
Of all the nights you never went out with her
Now you’re without her
Crashed his car right through a wall
Lawyer called, she took the dog
Upside down it’s plain to see
That life was never meant for me
(It’ll come back soon, if you stay here long enough)

When I broke out it was a cold November pain
I used to wake up but things always stayed the same
Crying softly on the soccer fields
"Everything seems such a great appeal when I’m grown”
When I’m grown
The boys in class liked the cool and confident girls
The conversation lacked and my thoughts went unheard
Overanalyzed my mixed tapes
I gave me such a splitting headache
But now I’m grown
Now I’m grown
All those times they’re hard to miss
But I'm still hanging on
All those times they’re hard to miss
But I'm still hanging on
Through all of this
You used to tell me things and I would then tell you mine
Our shared affection reigned, I’d call and you’d reply
We both knew we were ready
So we made out to Tom Petty
I stopped asking and you kept all those things inside
We drowned in apathy, now you just don’t reply
It fell apart too soon, I sighed, you sighed
Now you’ve become just a waste of time
And I’ve outgrown you.

Teens buying gas but not for their cars
It's just a highlight, hold your applause
It’s easy to feel unsatisfied
Waiting in line just to miss the ride
Don’t like anything new but you
We'll head to Toronto and drive straight through
Catch a glance while I’m lighting up
Am I filling up your cup?
Lights flash below on the interstate
Hear the engines hum, don’t you feel safe?
Knowing everything’s just passing by
The last exits not for miles and miles
Go out to the bars, they’re overrun
Throwing myself at everyone
Feed your wife, shell out for a home but
In your mind, you're still burning Rome
Spread out the petals where you lie
Grab a balloon it'll help you fly
Endless desire for the next in line
Hoping this time three lefts make a right
Lights flash below on the interstate
Hear the engines hum, don’t you feel safe?
Knowing everything’s just passing by
The last exits not for miles and miles
