lyrics
so i'm back chasing the same old dream,
with my head in the clouds i can't see anything,
else if i try to, please don't make me lie to your face,
and all those times i spent making those same old mistakes,
doing those same old things, like i'm repeating a take,
if i work hard i know i can fix things this time.
said "jess grab all your stuff pack it in the car,
i got willie dog and i got my guitar,
let's head out now under cover of night,
we'll be off the island 'fore it even gets bright,
let's leave this town and let's never look back.
joe knew a guy living in nyc,
who knew a guy that used to know me,
and he called me that night at a quarter to four,
took a moment to gather my wherewithal,
even through the phone his scent was thick as a wall,
he didn't have to say, i knew as soon as he called,
voice on the other end of the phone,
"hey jason time to get up,"
i say hey man it's 3:45,
"hey jason time to get up,"
i said hey alex are you out of your mind,
he said "no, trust me, now is the time,
tonights our one chance to get out alive!"
and i can see the walls around me crashing in as i go,
feels like the whole worlds spinning faster my life's getting out of control,
i'll just drive a little faster, make the music louder,
ill just keep singing "'babe you gotta believe,
we'll be just fine you, me, and the dog "
darling you and i can rule this whole vast land,
we'll tear it down brick by brick with our bare hands,
if we got to please don't make me go it alone,
jessie if things really start to look bleak,
we'll rely on each other to make it the week,
we've just got to leave now and never return
