You see, my legs get weak
And my tongue forgets to speak
I got the coldest stare that I've ever felt before
That steering wheel feels like
My only hope and I hold it tight
Headlights swinging to the side, said "Get out of this car"
She opened up that door
And stepped out into the rain, my lord
I felt like scum, I felt like the gun'd been turned on me
No matter that I care
This rift will never be repaired
I gotta love, I gotta live, and learn to be the one out in the rain

Those trees are getting tired now
They drop their leaves right to the ground
And stand there naked in the cold air, staring down at pure regret
But there's no point in looking down
They're set for spring, they count out loud
They throw their roots into the earth and let them set
So come on just hold my hand
Cuz my heart's already damned
And i've got nothing left to lose 'cept you, my friend
I said just cut this thread
Cuz my hope's already dead
Got about another hundred miles to let that one sink in

So tell me how does that song go?
The one where the boy pretends to know
Bout love and life, but we know he don't know a goddamn thing
I'd like to have some drinks
Sit back with a cigarette and think
Bout love and life, but I know that I don't know a goddamn thing

So I'll leave my shoes untied
I'll love and leave you be
I'll swim in sunshine skies
I'll let my soul roam free
I'll hope my heart stays true
I'll raise my glass to you, yeah
And if I die before I wake, I'll save a place for you
