You?re getting weak in your decisions
The ones that wake you just to say goodnight
And there?s nowhere to run from them this time
If there?s nothing I can say to break you free of all your fears
Then why am I still here
Well there?s that charming face you wear so well
And I know that you don?t wanna stay
So why don?t you just pack up and come with me

You?ve gotta hold on now
Don?t let your eyes look down
When we?re gone from here this wont feel lost at all

And there?s not a day that I can say that I?ve
Been playing every card that I?ve been dealt
But I know how it feels and how you felt
When the world was at your back and things were never stacked up right
But you put up a fight
There?s a light that peers through darkening skies
And I know that you wanna be free
So why don?t you spread your wings and fly with me

You?ve gotta hold on now
Don?t let your eyes look down
When we?re gone from here this wont feel lost at all
You?ve gotta hold on now (you think that I?ve got it wrong)
Wont let our lives touch ground (but this is where I belong)
I?ve been hoping you would just come through
With the days you said that
We?d be on our way back
To the ones we knew so little of this year, yeah yeah yeah

You?ve gotta hold on now
Don?t let it all come down
When we?re gone from here this wont feel lost at all

You?re wishing me all of the best
I just wish you would drop your regrets
And come back to this place I know
Will be the place you can never let go

I can see where you are
I can tell you’re enjoying it so far
I would love to escape, but now I’m bound
by the of burn of your eyes
looking on as I’m starting to realize
I’m a pawn in your game and this is checkmate
as the roses lift their heads to catch a glimpse of my demise
you’ll be throwing lies around like ocean waves throw down the tides
and they are breaking on my shore
and the rescue team won’t save me now I’m out too far
so I’ll waste these nights for a while
but I’ll be holding onto you forever
and this is where my heart is cold and torn
as I read the words you wrote last night
the butterflies are creeping through my spine
it’s a thrill I can’t shake
yeah I know we’ve been writing a mistake
but it’s hard to erase the feelings I’ve drawn
I was caught in an awkward silence
broken down by the sound of your prelude that you played
to open our symphony
I’ve been sleeping with the sunrise watching hours pass away
incidentally I’m just waiting for the dusk to kill the day
but now I’m waiting for your call
while I bang on this piano like you care at all
chorus
as I hear the words you’re saying tonight
I’m falling for them every single time
as the roses dip their heads a little further to the ground
there’s a season change and all the pinks and whites have turned to brown
will we make it through the fall yeah are we gonna make it through this fall
?cause I don’t wanna fall with you
I’m trying, we’re dying, yeahhh
I’m taken by your hope-filled lines
they’re well designed and dragging me along
I’ll be waiting for this chance and I’ll be gone

It feels like summer is on it?s way
But it?s mid November
I?ll hang this dream up on display
But I wont remember anything at all
And you haven?t told me anything at all
But you know I?ll chase you down
Complacency is lost for now
But I?ll never doubt you
?Cause all I do is wonder how
I could be without you anywhere at all
And I?d run to find you anywhere at all
But don?t you run too far away
I?m racing time for you
You know I need this now
?Cause I?ve been burning all my aspirations down
But I?ve been feeling closer day by day
You know I?ll chase you down
It feels like summer is on it?s way
Will it ever get here
These sheltered hearts can?t make me stay
No I wont forget we?re everything I know
And I hope you take this everything I know
And you make it worth this ride to me

Chorus

Chorus (extended)

So we pull into your driveway
I don?t want you to leave
The stars get your attention
I lean back in my seat and we just talk
And listen to the mix that you had made me days before
And I was never good at this
Insinuating lines that might lead to that first kiss
So roll your eyes with every awkward line I fumble
Until I get this right
Was I wrong to take this bound
?Cause I?m in love with what I found
But you?re coy and you?re holding things back
And I know you but I can?t see through
These doors that you won?t let me in
I guess I?ll turn around, I?ll turn around, and go
Well I?ll just go
And I?ll wake up with this taste of
A bitter sweet despair
?Cause holding you is like fighting for
A final breath of air that drifts the room tonight
I?m getting tight and I can feel you falling off

Bridge

Chorus

So give me one more chance I?ll take this
One more shot I?ll make this
One more feeling I can?t get from anyone but you, but you

Chorus

I guess I?ll wait around, I?ll wait around

My blood bleeds red
For all those thoughts you left unsaid
Well how could you let your guard down
And let me impose
We?re dying the further this thing goes
Well can we go back to where we were before
You dropped your heart on my floor
?Cause it was easiest to hide it all away
And never say what we were thinking
No you?d never catch me blinking that night
?Cause I was all of yours
But don?t say we became too late
Well I just think you?re humoring yourself
Let me say one more thing before you fly
And this charade is out of sight
I?ve been wrong but now I?m right
So let your precious sky come down on you tonight
I?m right outside
With every useless key I?ve tried
You?re seamlessly wrapped in secrets
Unraveling now
But you don?t know just why or how

Bridge
(left your heart at my door)
(blinking those nights)

Chorus
(Let me say one more thing before these
Beautiful mistakes we?ve made run dry
Well I thought this would all blow by
And everything would just turn out alright
And this would all be fine)
So say goodbye to days like these
I?ll give it one more try and hope it all seems better in your eyes
Well maybe not this time

When I first started writing this I swear my intentions were well
and I’d start with maybe a memory or two
but then I saw you for the first time in a while
and awkward thoughts brought awkward smiles
and I left your room for the very last time and I know
that I can’t sleep
with all of these things they’re running through my head
so I stayed up and I
I wrote this song about you
isn’t that cliche’ of me to do
but it’s nothing for you
the band just needed something more to play
so don’t blush or hooray at the possible sound of your name
no I wouldn’t go that far
no
now I
I’ve watched these years disperse and still this verse lacks words
and I’m losing all but a memory or two
?cause now I see you and I can’t hold back a smile
your fashion’s long gone out of style
and there’s nothing left to impress me anymore
?cause I know
that I can’t see
that same girl that I had known so long ago
so I gave up and I
chorus
no I wouldn’t go that faaar
and you’re dying to know
if a thank you will show up on my back sleeve
but I don’t think I’ll tell
of who crafted this hell and fixed it on me to the world
I wrote this song
I wrote it about you
I wrote this song all about you
yeah the band just needed one more song to play
yeah the band just needed one more song to play
yeah
chorus
no I wouldn’t go that far
no I wouldn’t go that far
no I wouldn’t go

Jump in don’t save yourself for last
breathe in this life don’t leave it in the past
you’ve found yourself here one last time
but where do you go when the curtain’s coming down
this isn’t how we got so far
there’s nothing better than waking up to a new day
so wake me when you see life’s worth living out
and tell me when this gets better
but don’t be alarmed if I’m not here when you figure it out just call
I’ll throw you a line
take in this world you’ve broken down
your hero’s gone and there’s no one left in town
just one more page here left to write
but where do you go when the curtain’s coming down
how did we ever get this far
there’s something better for both these lives on the outside
chorus
and we’re on our way
to the lives we said we would play
and we’re on our way
to the roads we knew we would take
yeah we’re on our way tonight
you’re holding back on me once again
did you ever think this through
?cause your last grain’s making its way down way down
chorus
yeahhh
chorus
get up you’re falling behind and fading away

Our bodies to hand with the Jersey shoreline
Connecting the tide to the sand that was dry
And we both laid entwined, stared at the night
Clouds overhead, but that was all right
?Cause then and there with the wind in your hair
Heaven was jealous to merely look fair against you
And all I need now is for this moon to keep light in its desolate skyline for good

?Cause these are the nights that you know when you?re there
You couldn?t have planned it much better I swear and you hope
That your senses aren?t failing you now
And you think to yourself now I could be wrong
But I might have just stolen this scene from a song and you know
That your senses aren?t failing you now, but they?re slipping away

So divine is this happening
Can?t I just graze your skin
For the rest of our time
But time isn?t letting this night go on
Till then and there, the wind in your hair
Nothing in this world could keep me from staring at you
And all I need now is for that sun to stay under its glowing horizon for good, whoaoaoa

?Cause these are the nights that you know when you?re there
You couldn?t have planned it much better I swear and you hope
That your senses aren?t failing you now
And you think to yourself now I could be wrong
But I might have just stolen this scene from a song and you know
That your senses aren?t failing you now

Failing you now
You could get lost in a night like this
So empty your thoughts and open your heart to the bliss
These are the nights, these are the nights
These are the nights, these are the nights

I’ve heard all the talk
yeah this road’s no good for you
a line of bleeding hearts behind her throne
and she flaunts them like she’s claimed them as her own
she’s built her castle through the sky
but there’s a part of me she won’t defy
I’ve built my guard up just as high
and she’s breaking through this
the wall’s on fire
here’s my heart for you
have you been rendered breathless
will you fall off
or will you follow and invade my runaway world
I must be honest
it hasn’t been this way in years
and I never thought I’d let this come
they’re telling me your love is faithless
but this is the way out
I’m finally feeling somewhat free and I’m afraid
free and I’m afraid
that she’s… chorus
we can catch this by the tail in time
as the ship sets sail we’re all in flight
and we’ll barrel past these stars tonight
and they’re slowing down they’re slowing down
I can barely see the flames
as we’re slowing down
can you ask this world to wait around
just one more round
yeah she’s… chorus
my runawaaaay yeah eah whoa ohhh
my runawaaaay my runaway
let this carry on just get me through these nights and days of this world
oh will you follow and invade my runaway world
would you watch me fade away or be my getaway in this runaway world

I’ve been told to remember
Keep your lemur eyes wide
Someday you’ll make a life of this
So carry on, carry on
But i’ve become so offenseless
Despite these weapons i bear
Have we toned up our finest
Or did we take this

Too Far down
The road you know i’m scared to go down
I’m waking up anxious to lay back down
‘Cause all i can do here is wait
Just wait, i’ll hurry up and wait

Well i can’t read her expression
‘Cause man this vixen she’s sly
As she keeps me suspended
I’ve lost all control of this flight
Hiiii yeaaahhh yeaaahhh
We’ve ravaged our chances to shine
Would you take what i’m giving to you or did i take this
Did we take this

Too far down
The road you know i’m scared to go down
I’m waking up anxious to lay back down
‘Cause all i can do here is wait, just you wait

So have it your way
I know you’ll be watching with gallant eyes
As we shake the wreckage
And break from these hauntingly silent niiiiiights
Break from these silent nights
Will this take forever?
We might have a shot if we’d stray
But what’s another day

Of hurry up and wait
Hurry up and wait
Hurry up and waaaaait
It’s all that you can do now
