Parted lips, two eyes too tight

remember all of the lines

it's so hard to keep a straight face

when i'm talking to myself

sunset in a solemn way

headlights on the overpass

if it gets worse you don't have to stay

any longer than you please

sit tight, don't make a move

you were always one to let it come to you

sometimes that doesn't work

sometimes you gotta stand up and shake that ass

false hopes in a well lit room

dead dreams on a photograph

i could let it get to me like it gets to you

but i think i'll leave it in the past

you can't blame me

for giving up so fast

new lies won't stop the crowd

it's just another thursday night

but i'm gonna grow out my hair

throw yesterday to the wind

i'm gonna move out west, leave this still life

new shoes on an old wood floor



you're counting on the next ten minutes

gonna stop time, gonna get the girl

but this isn't television, kid

brown eyes in a white walled room

colorblind with a thing for music

you say "love" is your favorite word

but you never find the time to use it

scraped kness in some new old jeans

you bought 'em at a store downtown

they don't make you any younger 

but you like how they feel

on the skin that you hold so close

insecure, but you think no no one knows

what it's like to want to live and die at the same time

you can't blame me

for giving up so fast

new lies won't stop the crowd

it's just another thursday night

but i'm gonna grow out my hair

throw yesterday to the wind

i'm gonna move out west, leave this still life

new words on a plain white page

old songs on the radio

found love on friday night

to think you didn't want to go

touched lips on another's skin

small words in a big blue sky

i hated life before i found that song

now everything's alright

you can't blame me

for giving up so fast

new lies won't stop the crowd

it's just another thursday night

but i'm gonna grow out my hair

throw yesterday to the wind

i'm gonna move out west, leave this still life
