lyrics

where do you go
once hell has froze?
i didn’t see this coming
i’d always dreamed
we’d mend the seam
that day we’d take off running

retraced the lines
a thousand times
i wanted to remember
but these nights alone
in our afterglow
won’t put it back together

nice guy lies
all my 9-to-5’s
when i’d rather die
than live without you
what’s it worth
when my best won’t work
should i leave this town
move on without you?

my body wades
through your tidal waves
i’ll waste the rest of the summer
when what’s long been due’s
come back to you
it’s such a goddamn bummer

i ought’ve known
but my eyes were closed
in dark or light, i’d stumble
by my demand
you’d guide my hand
but was it worth our trouble?

nice guy lies
all my 9-to-5’s
when i’d rather die
than live without you
what’s it worth
when my best won’t work
should i leave this town
move on without you?

slam the open window
board all the doors shut and run, run, run
