lyrics

I drove out to your house, to surprise you at home
I waited out front for hours
But there were no lights on, and I know how you get when its like this
I didn't pay attention to the flashing lights
coming from the east end, down ninety-nine

I never want to die, and I hoped you wouldn't too
But it's just too painful to think about right now

Seventy-five days from our plans, months away
from the best years of our lives
Time is your only enemy right now don't let it drive
you insane or apart

I couldn't stop myself from going there
Clung to a hole that dug itself for me
Throwing words like boulders, holding
Each others hands, kissing shoulders
And wrinkled heads, is this the peace I wanted?
Or the calm in between
all in all, I was never meant to be
the last thing that you said to me

Seventy-five days from our plans
Months away from the best years of our lives
Time is your only enemy right now, don't let it drive
you insane, or apart

All in all, and all in all

I took the ache from your heartbreak
As the colors ran together
In the watercolor of your tears
They bled, and they burned
A hole into my eyes
What could be more powerful than one last goodbye
