Safety isn't getting us safely anywhere
But I'm holding onto your scars as they disappear
Bite the bullet or swallow it whole
I'm leaving trails of dial tones
To push the feeling until it's broke
Be sure loneliness is a test
When your hands get colder and the "fun" started making your eyes run
It wasn't part of the plan
We were only children at best
As the sand gets colder when the sun is swallowed by the horizon
I think we're better off to go it alone than go on through, go on through
When I say I'm not coming home, I mean it
I think we're better off to go it alone than go on through, go on through
When I say I'm not coming
Maybe running has got to be the biggest mistake
But I'm giving it all because you've given me all I can take
If life is only as far as we go,
Then every second is taking its toll
Any chance could be your last roll
Be sure loneliness is a test
When your hands get colder and the "fun" started making your eyes run
It wasn't part of the plan
We were only children at best
As the sand gets colder when the sun is swallowed by the horizon
The biggest hearts are hard to fake
I think we're better off to go it alone than go on through, go on through
When I say I'm not coming home, I mean it, I mean it
I think we're better off to go it alone than go on through, go on through
When I say I'm not coming home, I mean it, I mean it, I mean it
I think we're better off to go it alone than go on through, go on through (x4)
If this is forever than you can forget it (x4)
And I never made a promise that I had the chance to break
Safety isn't getting us safely anywhere
And I've lost your scars into the air
You've bit the bullet and swallowed it all
In the corner, with your back to the wall
If your knees go, straight down is the only way to fall
I think we're better off to go it alone than go on through, go on through
When I say I'm not coming home, I mean it, I mean it
(x2)
(Safety isn't getting us anywhere)
When I say I'm not coming home (x3)
I mean it, I mean it, I mean it
