(1)Just walk away, Gather your thoughts, for the second wave
(2)But we stand here both proud both wrong and right, throwing cheap shots
in this Stubborn fight

Of this argument, of this epic changing day, it’s crazy to think that an hour
ago all things were great.
And our lives are so intertwined in one, we’re just so stuck in this moment
It’s clear that we’re coming undone.

And you see, it’s hard for me to breathe,
When I get all worked up with these feelings
And I don’t know exactly how it is

That we can be so mad we considered not to exist
We both know there’s so much love clenched within our fists.

Goodbye waves in the drive way just resonate, And yes I’m throwing it
right back at her, while we’re drowning in rivers from our faces

We just want to know if this, is this over? Trembling silence fills the
air as we stand here, so impaired, but so aware.

Like cigarette smoke, I’m starting to choke on this, half of my soul’s on
The road with a girl in a dress.
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
-After “as we stand here” (3:41) I can’t here the guitar anymore because of
all the other instruments kicking in, at least until the end of the bridge
or whatever. -
So hey now, maybe we’re just being stupid, Hey, maybe we’re just being dumb,
No, hey, maybe it’s time that we stopped and we realize that, flag in the
wind we are one, and how at first it makes so cute and lovely, the battle can
can be torn to shreds, with time and patience, and love and affection, we can
beat this with needles and thread, because I love you! And you love me, and
nothing will make this leave, I said, I love you, and you love me, and nothing
will make, make, make, make this leave. So remember me, yeah… remember me,
yeah. Remember me…
