You're the shooting star
That shot out every tired little thing
That reminds you who you are
And though the season's right to renew
Just remember that you have some things you should do
You're the burning flame
That burned out every tiny little trace
Of the things you said were to blame
And while you're feeling ripe to renew
There're still things haunting you
But here's what you can do
On a cold day
When the fire is gone and you can't stay
Just get back out on the highway
Turn the radio on
Sing out the face
Drive around at your own pace
Leave behind your disgrace
My friend, you've gotta get it behind you
You're the golden Sun
That sets upon the west and the rest
Of everything you've said and done
But while your dreaming lights up the sky
You know your gilded lies
Could never shine so bright
Seems like we never really say what we mean
In another's company
But I guess that's just the way that it's always been
And while your dreaming lights up the sky
You know your gilded lies
Could never shine so bright
On a cold day
When the fire is gone and you can't stay
Just get back out on the highway
Turn the radio on
Sing out the face
Drive around at your own pace
Leave behind your disgrace
Let those feelings be gone
'Cause it's a long way
To get back up from a heartbreak
To mend yourself from a mistake
When your self-worth is gone
But for your sake
Keep in mind that we all ache
You've been playing for big stakes
But my friend, you've gotta get it behind you
Get it behind you
