lyrics

Six a.m. I rub my eyes
Look up at the blood red sky and
I get the urge to fly so
I hit the gas and start to Drive
Form a melody
From the highways rhythm under me
Then write some poetry
About my life and how things used to be

I wish I didn't have to cope
With your phantoms and your lingering ghost
Your flame burned everything at once and
I lost you in the lingering smoke

I drove to the Sea
Straight to where I think that you might be
Then I said a prayer in peace
Buried my idea of what could be
So for now I breathe
Face the sun and
Feel it's warmth on me
I know one day I'll see
The rest of the big world that's around me

I wish I didn't have to cope
With your phantoms and your lingering ghost
Your flame burned everything at once and
I lost you in the lingering smoke

Will I ever know
What it means to be and
Where I'll go hopeless with no Paramore
Worried my dreams will wash up on barren shores
So for now I sit with my guitar, paper, pen, and pic
Trying to make sense of it
Where I stand I feel I do not fit

I wish I didn't have to cope with your
Phantoms and your lingering ghost
I wish you never had to cope with
My ideas from a paranoid host
Our flame burned everything at once and
I couldn't seem to carry us both
