We fought fire with fire till the spark gave out
We watched the embers burn at the edge of town
We always talked about getting outta this place
But now your room is filled with empty space
I can't go back to Chicago
I really wish you could know
How much you meant to me
Now that I set you free I can't bear to even face you
There's nothing that I can do
I'm sorry that I had to go
But I'm never going back to Chicago
I remember all the drives to Lake Michigan
Just so we could go to the beach
But I don't think I would ever wanna do that again
Because you seemed so out of reach
All the lights on the highway
Have never seemed so dim
The tide keeps on rising
It's getting harder and harder to swim
It's time I leave this place behind
Leave this place behind

Don't Look Now

I stole some money from my mom
To buy myself cheap cigarettes
And I'm feeling pretty good right now
But I know it's something I'll regret
Me a material guy with my eyes open wide
Gazing right at the problems but everything's fine
We are parallel lines in the post modern times
Where the president lies and no one gives a shit
Don't look now
Your eyes have been glued close
Take everything they're throwing at you
While everyone else knows
Don't look now
We're in over our head
And they will tell you it's okay
'Cause pretty soon we're gonna be dead
I hate the small town drama
And I love big city subway trains
But I don't wanna spend $5.50
To ride away from all this pain
Me a material lad
Everything is just rad
(If I tried to write a song it would sound so bad)
Too busy being sad
Can someone pay all my bills?
Everything is getting so out of hand

Hopeless Sarcastic

Am I all you ever wanted or am I just in the way?
You need to make up your mind
You gotta tell me something or else I will be afraid
That I'm just a waste of your time
I will never hurt you
Baby come outside
You can keep me waiting
It's cool I've got time
You're a hopeless sarcastic and I'm just neurotic about you
('Bout you)
I keep writing you songs but you don't sing along what do I do?
(I do)
Is this all you ever wanted or should I just walk away?
It's hard to read you sometimes
You just want me for the night you don't care about my day
I don't want to cross the line
Honey you know I want you
But the taste of your lips just isn't enough
So why don't you come a little closer
And show me what you're really made of
I'll keep calling you up until you've had enough
(Baby you just keep me waiting)
You want me and I want you
(So why don't we just stop debating)

A Lifetime Ago

Have I really lost track of what's important to me?
There's no point in going back
I'm stuck in our memories
Everything's moving too fast
It's so hard to keep up
I just wanna make this last
But we both changed and then grew up
I'm sorry I never said it but you meant so much to me
We were just a couple of kids but we were right where we needed to be
I remember when we first met yeah it seems like a lifetime ago
I'm not ready to move on yet I never wanted you to go
Can we just stop for a second so I can catch my breath?
The look I have in my eyes has you scared to death
Everything feels like it's coming to a screeching halt
But don't mind me, I'll be fine
Just act like everything's my fault
Fucked up again
Could this be the end?
Now all I can do is just smile and pretend
I remember when we first met but it seems like a lifetime ago

Preserve Our Memories

I haven't seen your face since May
And when the sun falls in the ocean all I think about is day
Life moves fast and so does time
I miss the sound of Joy Division in your van from '95
Where I told you all my deepest darkest secrets
And you told me all the reasons why you hate your brother
In all the classes we had together we didn't learn a thing
Except for everything there was to know about each other
I can't go out tonight
My parents said I can't
And I'm working every other night this week
And as you fall asleep tonight
Will you think about your new friends?
I don't wanna be a burden on your mind
And I wanna preserve our memories
Every time you think of me I get a little different
And you don't really wanna see what I've become
Let's hang out in three years at a coffeeshop near our old school
And talk about the friends we had in common
