Staring into our eyes they always told us it wouldn't work out and they aren't wrong but i'll be damned if they are right They've got you sweating sweating second guessing careful not to slip on the floor Like you've got a choice So just baby turn it up I've been living in the past since the door was closed on you The lights were all still on It wasn't a choice so much as an out that I had to take And this is getting me down through the ground The pop punk has me over and out, my friends got me lifted But the sunset always reminds me of you Careful honey because we're taking on water we're running on empty and these fumes aren't the type that make you forget that all your answers can't be found at the bottom of a bottle So we won't give up give up! till the crowd goes home You better throw the towel in or we won't know So turn it up I've been living in the past since the door was closed on you The lights were all still on It wasn't a choice so much as an out that I had to take And this is getting me down through the ground The pop punk has me over and out my friends got me lifted But the sunset still reminds me of you Streaks of red cross the sky The horizon burst to flames and embraces the earth We went through the best of the best and the worst of the worst together There's no bridge to burn, just a river that stands as a testament to what we stand for I've been living in the past and I can't take it Look into our eyes and you just might see that this is where I belong I dare you to challenge it We've dug our heels in This is where we make our stand

There's a world of hurt in store for you Just come back home to see what you're missing Your plans went south and there's nowhere left to hide the fires that you set All of the innocence you've burned We've had it up to here with you There's no escape This shouldn't come as a big surprise to you We're cutting you off tonight Together, we're taking down the sky This place will look like a graveyard (Good riddance to you, we're shipping off) There is nothing left for us here When I look around there's no one else to blame except myself For enabling a thought of grandeur And not thinking it would be hard to know When we're in over our heads unable to fend But unlike you, I've got heart, I've got soul Call it I'm leaving for the last time I don't care about your right or wrong just Need an ocean behind me And when it all falls apart, like it's accustomed to It won't be anything new, we'll be better off than- Keep your head out of the clouds if you know what is good for you If not, keep on digging your own grave You've finally reached the point of no return there's no escape, this shouldn't come as a big surprise for you We're cutting you off tonight We are rewriting the books and taking back what is ours (This is it, you're done, you're through.) We've done all that we can to make sure you're aware there's no one else to blame except yourself for abusing words of grandeur with a smile And not knowing when you're in over your head, unable to fend for yourself It's too bad you don't know what we mean when we say, I've got soul Call it I'm leaving for the last time I don't care about your right or wrong just need an ocean behind me And when it all falls apart like it's accustomed to It won't be anything new, we'll be better off than you

You already know what I've got to say about how everything is slipping away cuz' you're broken and not half the man you claim you used to be I'm so tired of taking all this to heart weathered down dead weight is all you can take from me It always begins with the keys in the ignition with a tank full of fire and our eyes on the road it won't matter who greets us, the sun or the moon Take this one step at a time take it from me cuz' I've got rocks in my shoes that keep my blisters company (and I'm done) Working day and night just to see you lose track of everything you're trying to prove to the monsters who will turn their backs on you again if they have the chance and they always will give me a name just to keep them talking we won't run, they can't hide It always begins with the keys in the ignition with a tank full of fire and our eyes on the road it won't matter who greets us, the sun or the moon Take this one step at a time take it from me cuz' I've got rocks in my shoes that keep my blisters company
