She was that dark and stormy
At the age of twenty three
So we’d had no conversation of which to speak
‘Till the moon rose up on the party
And we skittered out to the trees
Just two lonely strangers, struggling
Not even I could reach deeper than my throat
You could not even know the fables and the hopes
But I think we both know if we get back to the road
There goes another path
There goes another soul
Thought I was made for this
For just a moment like this
But I just lost the focus
And though your eyes were wide open
I only see all that been
I only see all that’s left
I only see all the demons
There’s a hurricane in the Carolinas
Otherwise, never safer
Bless our hearts we’ve skipped a page
Making me feel like a little kid
Don’t you want to live, like a million years
Stealing all the biggest dreams
Don't you want to live
Well I’m guessing I do
All this rain and the well is dry
All this rain, this wind, these highs
All this rain and the well is dry
Put the body down for the evening
Don't you want to live
Well I’m guessing I do
It’s like a rodeo in the dark of night
Now show me all the wonder when I’m dry
Don’t you want to feel like a little kid
Don’t you want to live, like a million years
Standing in the biggest dreams
Don't you want to live
Well I’m guessing I do
All this rain and the well is dry
All this rain, this wind, these highs
All this rain and the well is dry
Put your body down for the evening
Don't you want to live
All this rain and the well is dry
Don't you want to live
Well I’m guessing I do
Spent your life pushing forward
Looking back
Spinning on the table with your hair pulled up
Staggering like a real princess
Where’s your hashtag
Feeling like a vision till you fall down flat
Seems impossible
But that’s the only road
Tell me otherwise what do we long for
Dear lord
Ain't nothing like the real world
Now dare we take a run for it
And see where we end up
Seems impossible
But that’s the only road
Tell me otherwise what do we long for
Left our home in the cool of night
Everything right in the world
Just the two old souls and the end of times
Everything else has to burn
Show me more, show me more
Tell me, tell me darling
Is it just a phase somehow
Or will I never know your warmth again
On the dark side now
Always chasing something
Never meant to get in your way
But even when the fog from the fighting lifts
I’ll be yours to blame
Even when the fog from the fighting lifts
I’ll be yours to blame
Who was winning
Was that in the vows
Taking the tally the whole way down
But even when the strike from the gavel sounds
I’ll be yours to blame
Tell me, tell me darling
Is it just a phase somehow
Or will I never know your warmth again
On the dark side now
Will I never know your warmth again
On the dark side now
