lyrics

All the rooftops and city streets
I've walked upon
Still feel beneath my feet
All the rainy days
Days spent away
Make me contemplate
How I could never breathe
But it's hard to move forward
When you're running on wet concrete
All the bright lights
The quiet nights
You suffered through
To make it a table for two
It's always been so simple
But it's always something new
The pessimist in me
Brings out the optimist in you
Forever dark blue
When all you wanted was a mascot
Someone to hold your hand
And pretend
That recently
You haven't seen
A change in me
It'd do you good to forget
But it's hard to move forward
When your life's a second guess
I'd do anything
To shed my skin and realize that who I am is
Better when I'm with you
The pavement outside your house
Is cracked and broken now
But I'll spend years filling in all the space
All the spaces
All the gaps that remain
Every syllable of your name
Resounds in my head
And the pavement is wet again
I'm always running on, always running on quicksand
