It came in third to everything
I need you to get here and pencil in anything
So many switches end the silence
I want to shout it out and resonate a new way
All the long days

We couldn't always read the short way or read correctly
Please redirect me if it stays here
Make it not too late to get lost
Always anticipating blame
I am aging here for all of the things that will be new again

It's not as bad as everyone says
Drink through what you can see through
If it breaks the rules they gave you, take it off

Amnesia helps to get you there when
You can't remember how to let the cars do what they will do
When the train derails
Take this as your moment to fly

Never back down when jekyll'ed hands are idling to hyde
Personable personalities for fear of being found out, left behind
I'm younger guns traveling eastward and up
Making good on claims to shove west
When gold country washes prospects in again

It's not as bad as everyone says
Drink through what you can see through
If it breaks the rules they gave you, take it off
Amnesia helps to get you there when
You can't remember how to let the cars do what they will do
When the train derails
Ditching the tracks for the town

Let's rewrite nostalgic laws
Scream our lungs and walk past oz
Walk past foreign dreams to know it all
Because we are young, we are undone
And we know just what's good for us
True and real things can be touched
And felt and told without tongues
We search for new answers

It's not as bad as everyone says
Drink through what you can see through
If it breaks the rules they gave you, take it off
Amnesia helps to get you there when
You can't remember how to let the cars do what they will do
When the train derails
Take this as your moment to fly
