Highway

Lyrics

We stood on the pier and watched the waves as the tide came in The sun sets every day and we all know that, but I never look I never really wanted to live forever, but I changed my mind It's not that I expect that to ever happen, I've just got a lot I'd like to do Walking by the ocean, i see the waves crash and slide back in A hermit crab got lost without its shell The lights on in the market I like how it looks whеn everything's gray But the windows arе bright orange against the haze I see a man waiting He's been standing there since 6:15 He watches cars and tries his best to blend right in Head lights, peak around the corner And you forgot to jump Disappear, travel miles away instead It all works out the same Grab your books and collapse your tabs Grab your disc and your briquette, you've got friends to meet I haven't seen my daughter in weeks, where could she be? Hope she forgets me someday You never really got what I was saying, you always said 30 was enough I never really know how serious you are but I hope you change your mind A mountain at evening, haze against the sea and The silhouette of the horizon, it's hardest to see at dusk A pose in the door way could fool you as a picture frame But nothing's really paused no matter how still you stand Leave your life exactly as you lived it An impression, cleared out dust from habitually used places Compressed cushion on the chair on the balcony Dog eared pages and an unlocked computer screen Don't you think you could have cleaned things up a bit Don't you care at all? to clarify or justify Your uncleared history, i'm embarrassed just looking And i feel dizzy standing with the lights off staring at the screen And all the things that you bury in your life Could bloom like evil flowers that no one would ever pick But I stared and I stared for days on end And reached out to pull you back, please come back! I cut my hair today I put on a sweater and walked to school I don't give a shit, I'm fucking off today I stayed up late again on a Bus to the northern shore No one knows me here Except my dear grandma Release my thoughts to the empty sky I admit i don't know anything and never did Though i travel far away You know it's hard To be forgotten these days I never really wanted to live forever but maybe I changed my mind I really don't expect that to ever happen it's just something, it's just one thing Just another thing to think about The light in the morning eases my mind, though the Suns rays and wind blows seeds to the ground The currents push against my legs, run through the waves Til you get tired and lay panting on the shore Last night in a dream I stabbed you in the heart The blood made me lose my grip You were someone just like me Hated by all our peers So i hated you as well Apologies that grow like trees Fully formed in yards you're not likely To visit again Don't mean anything So scatter the seeds in hopes that something useful grows for once Some people may leave and be gone forever So stop and look at the people who are still around So in my case I take a look a my father Walking in the distance 100 miles away And I'm sorry when you tried to die I said "do it right next time" To be honest I was hurt myself If I could live 100 more years You know that I would take And I hope you'd take it too Sitting in the park Swinging in the dark I felt so stupid and young So I'm sorry Oh god I'm sorry If one drop from my heart could just turn you around Just know I'd prefer to see you living The so called family who said you were nothing… They'll just never understand So don't believe them!! Don't believe them!!!!
