lyrics

SO GET OUT safer now that we skipped over the gaping holes
in our floor could be the only things in our lives that ever were constant
SO DON’T LIE I know you want to keep your love alive
I’ve seen the look on your hollowed face
as they send you away again and again
SO COME BACK it’s safer now they’ve gone and left us behind
we have the same cold feet hitting hollow ground
as we run from the flames and out of the smoke
SO WHY WAIT if this is what you wanted all along
who am I to hold you back?
I’ve always known you’d do anything to keep your love alive
SO BURN BACK into the sand and
when it’s her calling out your name
won’t you come running to her aid
or are you still afraid to look her in the eye
and know it’ll never be the same
SO GET OUT safer now that you’ve gone and won’t come back
the streets still remember your running feet
and call you a coward behind your back
SO DON’T LIE I know you still care if you love is alive
if her heart still beats out the rhythm of your name
(whatever the fuck that means) I won’t lie
but she does not feel the same SO WHY WAIT?
