Don’t try to catch me ‘Cause in the end you will be sorry Don’t try to catch me You won’t find me I’m leaving And you’re staying Please let the night pass quietly I’m leaving So let the night pass quietly I’m sorry I said, I was gonna leave I’m sorry I said, I was gonna leave

When I drive my dad’s Camero, That pretty blue thing will be my new ride, And light will flood in the, night fallen, sky I know, We haven’t talked in a while but you’ll just have to trust me with this And, They wanna talk to their fathers but themselves is the closest it gets, it gets When I drove my mom’s Corolla, from 97’ it would never fail me When I drove my mom’s Corolla, my head got pushed and leg bruised And I, didn’t think I caused that pain, throat was dry, I wished there was rain One big push and never saw, That corolla, Again, Again, Again, Again, Again

She’s got no charger and dead phone, And five more dollars till she’s dirt broke Her boss makes sure, To work her to the bone ‘Cause that’s what it means when you’re out all on your own She wanna be an independent queen, but then she turn around ask dad for the green (She says) will you float me one last time (We’ve hit a drought) but I promise I will figure it out (I found a job) it doesn’t pay much just for the rent, I got what I need, just a bed and my crazy friend Please tell mom I lover her so, but she must know that I’m never coming, home, home, home, home, ‘Cause she can feel it in the swaying of the trees, Just like back when she would ride on the tire swing, Lost track of the days but kept going on her own, Had to tell her self, Now you gotta be grown grown, grown, not going home, She’s gotta be cautious, But let them know she has a mind, ‘Cause she’s got one chance, no matter how many times she would love to rewind, She can feel her bones ache, ‘cause the weather changes as fast as their ages and she knows it’s too late, for apologizing for not compromising She wants to harness the power of the man, tell herself that she will and she knows she can (I am breaking down these walls) she says (I knew these bricks would fall) always I asked my dad how did you leave, Your mother and your brothers your whole country, He just smiled and looked at me Sometimes the best choice isn’t happy No, isn’t happy ‘Cause she can see it in her father’s tired eyes, what it means to leave to try and go and say goodbye lost track of the days and kept going on his own Had to tell himself now you gotta be grown, grown, grown, grown

Going through the breeze, And those eyes, Fall for ‘em every time Warmer days, warmer, warmer, warmer warmer days Warmer days With those eyes, on my mind, I could only wish for, warmer days, warmer days

When it was warmer, we didn’t make more than a quarter, could’ve helped my dad move all of those bricks and all that mortar I’m the fire the flame, I just think this is some game, but they’re no playin anymore so self-involved, don’t know how to teach you but my world’s dissolved, still absorbed by you we could go somewhere, I’ve been home for a while, and I got your number, but I forget what to dial sometimes I feel like my voice could stretch for a mile but I choke up when they want me to freestyle then I think about those nights where, where everything just feels alright, you and your friends just take flight, the stars become our only light but you never come through, that is just like you, got too much to do, it’s like I had deja vu it’s like I had deja vu purple lips, meet and greet you it’s getting colder, it doesn’t feel new and now there’s crisp air, and I’ll act like I care brought the plants inside, ‘cause the outside got too bare summer past and gone, like a free trial or some kinda add on then I think about those nights where, where everything just feels alright, you and your friends just take flight where, the stars become our only light but soon they turn blue, and I get a preview, of what will soon come, cause summer can’t renew it’s like I had deja vu, it’s like I had deja vu, but I’ll see them soon, I hope Guitar solo Went so far away, Where you reside it’s a different day I missed this feeling, Of always needing, of always wanting more And then I felt that early rising sun it’s what I do adore Cause when it touches my finger tips, I can feel it coming in, into my body But with out you it feels so very lonely, So lonely How to feel content on your own, I do not know, I gotta know But I believe, that I’ll see you soon, We’ll get some tea, Half past noon I’ll see you soon I’ll see you soon I hope

I miss aloe vera, on warm skin And dust floating in sunbeams, early in the morning I tried to tell you, but you don’t seem to listen And you don’t really know the difference between friends and what this is I miss my mom’s patchouli, I miss my cousins tryin to catch me, I miss sleepovers in that stationary van, One day she’ll drive it we got so many plans I miss my dad’s dreads all up in his head, Stay up late hoping that he’s not dead, But he came home and took the throne, and now we live, in a new Neighborhood, a new neighborhood There’s something that I’d never tell you So I tried to give you to others Then maybe I could learn to hate you I could learn you like a brother I do miss those after school drives, Skipping class cuz we got too high, Sleeping in way past 9, Cause we drank all your mom’s wine I miss body surfing and beach days sweating in that summer haze But you left town And put me down and now we live, in a new, Neighborhood, a new neighborhood You’re going home I’m moving on it’s all good, I was gonna tell that I love you, But I’m not supposed to It’s all good, it’s all good

I haven’t seen your face since We were together everyday and I like the way it looked in the morning light I was gonna call you But my boss said were through I said, that’s bullshit and walked my ass right out the door I miss when we could just go out and run right into the world now I got missed class and girl with no intuition to hold and you would just hold me and you would just hold me
