lyrics

I’m the first one to say I’m a little bit bitter
But I appreciate the small things all things considered
Transatlanticism, and rolling stone
Plans I can never finish, and night drives home
Take my advice I’m not using it right now
Find a place you love and never settle down
Take a Polaroid picture of the fall’s red leaves
Put it in a letter in December then send it to me

This is original and I feel free
It’s the dead of darkness
It’s the dead of darkness
For the first time in my life I can finally breathe
It’s the dead of darkness
It’s the dead of darkness
Fast yellow flashes and tall oak trees
It’s the dead of darkness
It’s the dead of darkness
Your hand on my knee from the passenger seat
It’s the dead of darkness
I’m alive to see it

I’ll be the first one to hop into a time machine
To stop erasing and wasting the very best things
Speeding home to your parents wine
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
It’s frozen outside we’re snowed in tonight
Put a WHY? Record on and tell me lies
You’ll pretend the moment’s beautiful, I’ll think that you are
The dutiful friend who only goes so far

This is original and I feel free
It’s the dead of darkness
It’s the dead of darkness
For the first time in my life I can finally breathe
It’s the dead of darkness
It’s the dead of darkness
Fast yellow flashes and tall oak trees
It’s the dead of darkness
It’s the dead of darkness
Your hand on my knee from the passenger seat
It’s the dead of darkness
I’m alive to see it

I’ll be the first one to clink and say my resolution
Yeah the problems stay the same but I have a new solution
Read as much I can over winter vacation
Until I can uncover what was Lost in Translation
I’ll write a million songs because I never want a real job
I’ll discover the universe in Calvin and Hobbes
But every second better be better than the last
I’d hate to spend a second of my future on the past
