Dancing on the graves of our former selves
Just trying to find a way to cope with all that we've become
We were only kids fresh out on our own
Just hiding from the cops off the interstate an hour from home
Who would ever want to make sense
While they're dying on the side of the road?
Love is just like a car crash, baby, that's the only way I know
If I'm gonna survive, I'm gonna do so on my time
Holy fuck we had a beautiful life
Look around, not just inside
Spent a bit of time in an SUV trying to find a place to crash
That didn't smell like piss or weed
Half of our heroes left a legacy while the other half
Ruined theirs by acting like fucking creeps
Does anybody wanna make it?
'Cus it feels as though we're all gonna die
I'm trying so hard to make sense, baby, of this American life
If I'm gonna survive, I'm gonna do so on my time
Holy fuck we had a beautiful life
Look around not just inside
Suburban mayhem comes to mind
Holy fuck we had a beautiful ride
I wanna live, not just survive
Thinkin' on back to when we were in our prime
Standing outside the show trying to get everyone inside
Now what is it with all the nonsense
That's seepin' in through the folds?
Just let it go
Just let it go
Don't hold back anymore...
