lyrics

It’s all so magical in your head
Take the car for ride
Leave it all behind

This town will hold you here
And you’ll spend all your years
Hypnotized by your own failure

Carried by the dreams you had for me
I finally took a stand
Tried not to give a damn

I couldn’t catch a break
Everyone here knows my name
Do you what you always do
Drink until you’re beautiful

I was a mess

The moment we met
You brought me to life
Just hanging around

You weren’t impressed
You were just passing through
Another dead ghost town

No need to tell me what I said
It’s always bothered you
My changing point of view

Who knows how things will be?
Why don’t you come with me?
I couldn’t answer you
So close to losing you

I was a mess
The moment we met
You brought me to life
Just hanging around

You weren’t impressed
You were just passing through
Another dead ghost town

I was a mess
I never left
Still hanging around
Where I met you
