I got a one-way ticket I got a master plan A letter in my pocket Baby, some roses in my hand I got a reputation That I'm gonna kill Ain't got alot of money or sense, my love But got a lot of will And I heard last night from some mutual friends You're a little bit too broke to go through this again And I know they're right But this is now and that was then I love you too much to lose you again I feel these little shivers Co-coming down my spine And every word delivered Sends these little rivers coming out my eyes I got a reputation But it's gonna get better Sometimes you gotta tear apart Two broken hearts to put 'em back together And I heard last night from some mutual friends You're a little bit too broke to go through this again And I know they're right But this is now and that was then I love you too much to lose you again And I know that you're probably hurtin' It's written on your face You don't see a way of it working I guess I'll have to wait, tonight Come back tomorrow, try again Your heart might be broken, but soon it will mend So don't you cry 'Cause we're so far from the end And I love you too much to lose you again

Watch your smile, it's gonna fall right off Did you hear she got a second hearing? Insurmountable, I ask myself Was it you or is it me they're healing? Lap it up, it's gonna be awhile Gotta capture all the love you stole Montessori and a mountainous thug You and me, we got a bone to throw So let me take away your sin Erase my life, just tell me when How do I learn how to lose you again? Intertwined and I was caught off guard You're the reason that the crowd was leaving Catching up with both the high school jocks Now they're cops, don't let 'em catch you speeding Where you're going doesn't cater much In a year, they're gonna take your soul I've been tired tryin' to chase your high You been trying hard to fill that hole So let me take away your sin Erase my life, just tell me when How do I learn how to lose you again? If I could draw it on your face I'd bind your heart, I'd trace my name I don't wanna learn how to lose you again I've been reading for a minute now Fairly sure it's somewhere in the story Every moment on the same routine Same as now, tonight, and in the morning Logically, I try to ask myself Is it true we're waiting for the cure? Let me hold you 'til the water dries You and me, we got a lot to learn So let me take away your sins Erase my life, just tell me when How do I learn how to lose you again? If I could draw it on your face I'd bind your heart, I'd trace my name I don't wanna learn how to lose you again

Sometimes you fall Sometimes you win it all Sometimes you learn a life's lesson In one second, sometimes you crawl Sometimes you gotta sit right there In your despair and try to pull yourself up With nothing to hold on to Sometimes you just gotta lose Just breathe...

I drove up to the city at night And found the place where you grew up And then where you stayed And then we walked around And stayed up late Under city lights And I spent the night Next to you in the house where you grew up Next to you I miraculously woke up In your parents' house I lied in bed with you I went out to feel alone there I went back to wipe it clean I took the lights and radio towers out of my dreams We went all the way up to the small town where I'm from With foggy air And the wind And the mountain top And we clung to rocks And we looked off You held my hand You almost got to start feeling me I finally felt like I was breathing free And under swaying trees, we fell asleep and had the same dream The stars were bright We dream the same every night On my island home I spent some time with you I went back to feel alone there I went back there by myself And gave up on everything that we'd felt We found a precious place in the sand Right out in the wind And lied under a blanket And heard the furious sound The roar of waves The pounding surf Two bodies on the earth It was intense just getting to be there next to you And you were trying to get me then And I was happy to let you in I went back and wished I hadn't I went back and felt regret I went to the beach and I stared west Every night when the sun went down In the town where we live The empty streets were lit up By reflected light From a distant sun Bouncing off a glowing ball of rock We just lied on the roof and watched The moon The moon The blue light of the moon We didn't talk and silently we both felt powerful Like the moon my chest was full Because we both knew we're just floating in the same space over molten rock And we felt safe and discovered that our skin is soft There's nothing left except certain death And that was comforting under the moon I went out last night to forget that I went out and stared it down But the moon just stared back at me And in its light, I saw my two feet on the ground
