Remember when we ran away?
We were almost 17
We ran out of money fast
Never learned to make things last
I wonder if we'd ever start
If I hadn't given up
Remember how my heart would sing
Brought up all the good within
Living in a house of lies
Never learned to make it last
And love,
the only thing we're guilty of
Was pushing on the edge of love
You would always go for broke
But I could never empty her
She said, if we can't go back home
We could always just carry on
If everything is set in stone Then
how come I don't feel like we belong?
Put every little light over The only left our dreams obscure,
you know
It's like we're echoing the hollow moans Long after the taste is gone
It's gone
Take it back to the beginning Your father had a heart attack
And you weren't even looking back by then
Cause he put on a perfect act
Never treated you like that
Saw you hide your beaten skin
Never really took it in I'd revisit a million times
Aching like you can't imagine The splinters of a shattered past
In too deep to get back out She said,
if we can't go back home
We could always just carry on
If everything is set in stone
Then how come I don't feel like we belong?
Put every little light over The only left our dreams obscure,
you know
It's like we're echoing the hollow moans
Long after the taste is gone
It's gone
