about

About that one person we're all writing songs about

lyrics

Calm, the key is to be calm
the burden of proof all lies with me
to find the evidence we need to carry

on, the fee to carry on
is taking that shimmer in your eye
to be regret you meant to hide

and when you blink,
you shuttle all away
the memories I had of yester
memories I had of yesterday

and its okay, we're better off apart
but that's the part of me that
voices things I never meant to say
were like two cars in the night -
your headlights blind me briefly then
you're gone and we continue on our way

well, I'm not feeling too well
I tried every trick to understand,
If I seem lost its 'cause I am and I need

help, I need a little help
I feel like I'm a mailbox that can't know
this house was emptied years ago

but then it comes
a letter that will say:
"its time you let the past be yester-
time you let the past be yesterday"

and its okay, we're better off apart
but that's the part of me that
voices things I never meant to say
were like two cars in the night -
your headlights blind me briefly then
you're gone and we continue on our way


and when I think
its far enough away
you make me feel like it was yester
make me feel like it was yesterday

and its okay, we're better off apart
but that's the part of me that
voices things I never meant to say
were like two cars in the night -
your headlights blind me briefly then
you're gone and we continue on our way

and my exits on the right
the mile markers counting down
the empty minutes of the night

and I drive on
letting limits pass my by as I
search my rearview mirror not for
the dawn but for the incoming headlights
