Lyrics Home - The Dangerous Summer

Home

I can’t tell you where I’ve been
But I hope to God you know
I want to run away from this
Fuck California
It’s just the safest place I know;
Where everything is making sense
So get me out of here
And I will take this to my grave
Yeah, that’s my dream
You took me out to make a point
I made damn sure you missed your flight
I’ve got more lines
To write about you when you’re gone
Because see, this CD has got me lost
And songs won’t ever save my life
Just send those post cards to make it known
That you won’t take to heart all the ways I’ve lost
Because I’m gone now and I’m trying not to change
When everything I want to sing is just wasting breath;
I’m a liar, but I’m working on my ways
I swear some day when I’ve got a way to change my life
I’ll be a singer with a throat;
and I won’t fuck up all these lines
But that’s a hope, yeah that’s all I’ll ever be
You used to have your faith in all my words
But now you’re killing all of me
That you won’t take to heart all the ways I’ve lost
Because I’m gone now and I’m trying not to change
When everything I want to sing is just wasting breath;
I’m a liar, but I’m working on my ways
I lost my voice, and then my mind
I wrote a book of all my thoughts
That could take me from my life
I had to fight to stay alive
Because if I make it through the night
Then I just swear I could survive
So where’s your head
And all your heart?
I’ve got a plan to make this work
But I can’t bring myself to try
I’ll take this slow.
I’ll make you move
I know you can hear me screaming because it’s all I ever do
That you won’t take to heart all the ways I’ve lost
Because I’m gone now and I’m trying not to change
When everything I want to sing is just wasting breath;
I’m a liar, but I’m working on my ways
