(i don't know, i just remember it being so much
brighter, i guess.)
cigarette ash like wildfire
burning holes in the nighttime
open scars spread like barbed wire
white lies flying high like a ceasefire
dropping flags on the shore line
this is as far as i can feel right
cause what you don't know can haunt you
and all we ever wanted was
sunlight and honesty
highlights to wanna repeat
let's get away from here and
live like the movies still
i won't mind when it's over
at least i didn't think for a while
(don't drag it out,
living like that doesn't mean a thing)
so let's run
make a great escape
and i'll be waiting outside for the getaway
it doesn't matter who we are
we'll keep running through the dark
and all we'll ever need is another day
we can slow down cause tomorrow is a mile away
and live like shooting stars
cause happy endings' hardest to fake
sunsets on power lines
making a break for the other side
heading out to where that sunshine
45 millimeter rolling like we lost time
polaroids and outcast
rather burn out young than grow up fast
and we could be forever futurebound
cause all i need is time and now
and i could leave this past behind me
and maybe i'll see a way for me to stay
where there's so much out there
so i'll live forgetting for the time being
and i won't mind when it's over
at least i didn't think for a while
so let's run
make a great escape
and i'll be waiting outside for the getaway
it doesn't matter who we are
we'll keep running through the dark
and we'll ever need is another day
we can slow down cause tomorrow is a mile away
and live like shooting stars
cause everything was never the same
and i wanna let you know
i wanna let you go
cause i just can't bring myself to speak
but this is how it goes
the end credits they roll
this bridge was built over kerosene
but we can watch it
and all i ever wanted was
sunlight and honesty
highlights to wanna repeat
let's get away from here and
live like the movies still
i won't mind when it's over
at least i didn't think
so let's run
make a great escape
and i'll be waiting outside for the getaway
it doesn't matter who we are
we'll keep running through the dark
and all we'll ever need is another day
we can slow down cause tomorrow is a mile away
and live like shooting stars
cause you can wish away forever
but you'll never find a thing like today
