After tonight I just can't be alone
driving home beneath the stoplights
They're holding me in suspense
But that's just the way it is I guess
For those of us who move too fast
And I wish that I could say
That I'm wishing you the best
But I can't, but I can't
So I'll write it out on paper to remember every word
For all the things I've lost and found inside of every verse
These are my directions to you:
Please, head north
Voices scream inside of me
Well, "Maybe I'm just cursed."
Just like they say, maybe I'm just cursed
I'm always hoping for the best
Maybe I'm just cursed
I'm always hoping for the best
Preparing for the worst
So please, head north
Maybe I was right, maybe I was wrong (So please, head north)
I just can't write another one of these summer songs (So please, head north)
Oh please not another sad, sad song,
You'll find me hanging on every word
It kills you to know that this world, it owes you nothing
So just forget what you're expecting
You'll find half what you deserve
