lyrics

Headlights don't show things all that clearly
push past fog on the windows if you want to see.
This evening beckons with cool sunsets that seem to only call out to you.
Where this broken ride takes us, I don't want to know
I left my troubles in my room I don't want to go home.
Can we take the long way back, the taste of this freedom isn't gone
(isn't gone) Just yet.

The whole world never really knew you
before today blending in is all you ever could do.
But this world opens it's ears
when everyone is filled with tears.
and words can't express fears or show how much they miss you.

As the moon drenches tears on these loved ones
it blends an image of every daughter and every son.
To know that they'd be gone forever.
As this woman drapes her heart over caskets
each pair of eyes barely knows the worst fact is
Is that they're looking for the very first time.
They're looking for the very first time.

The whole world never really knew you
before today blending in is all you ever could do.
But this world opens it's ears
when everyone is filled with tears.
and words can't express fears or show how much they miss you.

Don't wait til the journey home
to realize that your night's all gone.
