Can't help but think of when Heather dropped in for the week
When all I could see was who I wanted to be
Drove through the night
Dried the eyes in the back of my head
World turns to red
Could've been me instead
World turns to red
Could've been me instead
Should've sped 'til the story was dead
Chorus
Easy to see through a tree when the oxygen's poisoned
Let all your boys in
Cancel my breathing
Starting to see you and me's not the obvious choice
Amidst all the noise
Please spare me my voice
Never a matter of when when the garden's a dustbowl
Foolish to think all that we built was made for the long haul
Tell me to rebuild the part of my heart that you've broken
Like it's my decision
And I won't come home again
Verse 2
Never been further from fine
Still, your eyes write the melodies
Too many times I've lied to try to hide
Deny that I remember the memories
Imagine a little blue house by the water
Where we can wake up and make up
If things were said the night before that hurt
Although it still hurts
Chorus
Easy to see through a tree when the oxygen's poisoned
Let all your boys in
Cancel my breathing
Starting to see you and me's not the obvious choice
Amidst all the noise
Please spare me my voice
Never a matter of when when the garden's a dustbowl
Foolish to think all that we built was made for the long haul
Tell me to rebuild the part of my heart that you've broken
Like it's my decision
And I won't come home again
