Backseat Goodbye - Sunset Never Came Home lyrics

well the east coast died last night.

you were wrapped in a blanket by my side.

the sunset never came home.

well neither did we, reasons are useless so we just drove.

the stars don't shine as bright in the city.

and they don't shine at all if you close your eyes.

so leave them open.

leave them willing to see.

even if you don't believe.

these verses are meaningless.

since i don't know sign language.

you sure as hell can't hear them.

if you never listen.

so this can be another for my bedroom walls.

'cause i know they don't mind.

well we gave up the street signs.

for dirt roads and high fives.

virginia lost her nerve.

so we left her on the side.

of a road in east new york.

so she could think about what she'd done.

well we would pick her back up.

but were never going home again.

no that place just doesn't make me smile anymore.

and it sure doesn't ever pick me up when i'm about to die.

well the east coast died last night.

nothing but.

arizona and tomorrow on my mind.

the sunset never came home.

so we did as we pleased, it won't hurt 'em if they don't know.

don't trust anyone.

no not no one.

they lie to save their life.

and would rather be on top.

this is everyday.

yeah we're all free.

but sometimes that doesn't mean a thing.

so if you're lover. is a liar.

tell them no more, set yourself free.

and if your daylight.

has gone elsewhere.

tell it to come back, 'cause this is your life.

and you're gonna do as you please.

yeah starting tomorrow.

the sun will be back.

and then you can finally breathe.

so take these kind words.

use them to dry those tears.

'cause kid you're not a waste.

you're a dreamer.

so if you're lover. is a liar.

tell them no more, set yourself free.

and if your daylight.

has gone elsewhere.

tell it to come back, 'cause this is your life.

and you're gonna do as you please.

yeah starting tomorrow.

the sun will be back.

i can promise you that love, yeah i can.

and then you can finally breathe again.
