Aren't we all just living with the aftermath
Wishing that we chose another path
Watching all the miles pull at our skin
We are fighting battles that we'll never win
Push and pull we begin again
We dance like dust on these byways
We are mouthing the words that we'll never say
Holed up here like true runaways and we both know
How bad it feels, why do they say that it hurts when it heals?
We're falling upside down, so lost we doubt we'll ever be found
Kicking dust, rearranging our rust watching headlights fall on the ground
Well I wish we met in another town, I wish we met in another town
You know I can't set you free
It's taken me this long to be
Someone I could be proud of
Oh we dream of life in another town
Should we rebuild or burn it down
There will always be problems
So we'll fall asleep on the underpass
Hold each other close cuz we're all we have
And we both know how bad it feels
Why do they say it hurts when it heals
