These days I wake up to
A burning sun thats shining through
My window at 3:00 PM
Of course you’re busy like all my friends
But I’ve been trying harder now
To reach the roots under tis town
Pull them up and plant something that I can call my own
So lets move forward
Keep the past where it belongs
Buried under words and songs
I thought I told you that I was wrong
And I know that I couldn’t fix you if I tried
Because you’re just not the one for me
You call me out on my past
But it’s like walking on glass
Because you’re just not comfortable with me
These nights I go to bed
Warm pillow under my head
I flip it over to find relief
But I still smell you on these sheets
So what’s a boy supposed to do
Try and escape the ghost of you
Every night gets harder as I struggle to forget your name
So lets move forward
Keep the past where it belongs
Buried under words and songs
I thought I told you that I was wrong
So lets try harder
Do the things we want to do
I’ll hand you this IOU
And promise that I’ll see you soon
So I take the next train home
PA to NJ alone
Without a single person to phone
Alone
[Chorus]
So I’m driving myself home
And I called to let you know
This time I’m not letting go
So I’m driving myself home
And I’ll have you fucking know
This time I’m not alone
