Rainy days, it's the end of summer I'm locking myself inside of my room I pressed my eye to that telescope I thought what I saw was you But you were just steam coming off of the road The same stretch that runs right by home It will take you to my front door And you'll say hey babe. Are you ready for the world? We won't look back So we walked until our feet were bloody And we spoke until our ears grew warm You felt in your heart a certain safety With all your goodbyes you were finally adored But I was just steam coming off of the road The same stretch that plowed right through your home I pinned a note to your front door It read hey babe Are you ready, ready for the war? I killed my rage and I turned around I saw you sitting side of my house With my books and your tears and your glowing hope Looking at me through that old telescope Because we're just a dream Pumping through broken hearts We're ripped at the seams and were covered in scars But we will follow that map just like we planned And we will put down that "x" wherever you and I land We won't look back
