I let the bus rock me to sleep as miles pass under my feet I took a wrong turn on the right road, tying my loose ends with a tightrope I'm the two-faced circus freak you made in your daydreams I'm stuck inside this cycle, because of you I'll die alone To the corner, to the bar Toasting to wherever you are 'Cause the miles don't tell stories like you do To this cigarette romance I have to say it's been a drag 'Cause no one's messed me up quite like you I'm addicted to you Reality hits like a cold in the dark, always unknown I made a right choice at the wrong time, and the body's on the sidewalk that they've outlined You're a faceless mystery destroying everything you see You're a beautiful mess in a black dress and I regret I ever came To the corner, to the bar Toasting to wherever you are 'Cause the miles don't tell stories like you do To this cigarette romance I have to say it's been a drag 'Cause no one's messed me up quite like you I'm addicted to Every single way you drag me down And put my head up in the clouds You better believe I'm not getting over you any time soon Until then, I'll shut this down To the corner, to the bar Toasting to wherever you are 'Cause the miles don't tell stories like you do To this cigarette romance I have to say it's been a drag 'Cause no one's messed me up quite like you I'm addicted To the corner, to the bar Toasting to wherever you are 'Cause the miles don't tell stories like you do To this cigarette romance I have to say it's been a drag 'Cause no one's messed me up quite like you I'm addicted to

Wanderlust 04:04
What’s it like in Davenport, darling? The miles never faded so fast I have to say I’ve been running in circles Trying to intercept your orbital path I know I’ve been here before More often than I care to let show You keep slipping through my fingers Safe to say, I’m accident prone If you knew how much I miss you I you knew how much I care to let you know If you ever come home, you look for me Hang up your halo, rest your wings If you ever come home, home to me I’ll be there when you’re in need 'Cause distance doesn’t mean a damn thing When you mean so much to me If you ever come home to me If you ever come home How is everything you dreamed of, lovely? I won’t say I didn’t do it for you You took my hand, said “I don’t believe you” Now I’ve got three words to prove You’re keeping time with my heartstrings Haunting every last one of my dreams I’m sick of this friendship between Who we are and what I’d like to be Because when you leave, I lose my sheen With you here, I rinse and repeat And I know I’ll never be clean I’m no boy to beg, I’m no man to please But God, I’d be so pleased if you would be with me

Take Me Home 03:19
Shelby, I think it's the alcohol that's talking You had a bit too much to drink last night, but that's okay You, you might have noticed me staring at you across the room That might have made you say Baby, won't you take me home? I need someone to hold close I've been here too long all by myself and I don't wanna go it alone Baby, don't you tell me no You don't have to be so cold Take me home Shelby, we can spend all evening talking But we both know where we will be when the sun comes up Don't be so hasty, we've got all the time we need Let's sit back, relax, relapse, so we can do it again Baby, won't you take me home? I need someone to hold close I've been here too long all by myself and I don't wanna go it alone Baby, don't you tell me no You don't have to be so cold Take me home If just one drink could help us break the ice Then I should drink 'till it's all melted away She thinks I'm cold, but I'm stone to the outside I'll let her in so I can hear her say Baby, won't you take me home? I need someone to hold close I've been here too long all by myself and I don't wanna go it alone Baby, don't you tell me no You don't have to be so cold Take me home

Oh my, you heard it through the grapevine Or online, whichever you prefer Your lies are keeping us from dreaming Tongue tied, trying to fight your demons I've seen more spine in notebooks Than I have seen in you And I've seen potholes keep themselves deeper than you I hope the next time that you run your mouth, your tongue trips up on untied vowels 'Cause you keep your lips as loose as Gossip Girl Keep to yourself or let it go If I had a dollar for every time you started rumors I'd pay your funeral expenses 'Cause you're dying for attention, you haven't learned your lesson I hope a casket can shut you up for good I'm sending postcards to the morgue asking about you 'Cause you've been dead to me for oh so long They say cheaters never quit, and quitters never do I think they both fit you oh so well Secrets don't make friends, but they will keep them
