Everything fits when you tell your story
The blurry portraits in the halls of former lovers—they’re gone, but nothing was lost

You’ll always be a part of me
You gave me a song to sing
Dancing in your room innocent and true
Elvis tattoo on your shoulder
We’ll know better when we’re older

You’ll always be a part of me
Some wounds will always sting
Forever in full bloom and barely twenty-two
Summer days are growing colder
We’ll know better when we’re older

All of this was planned when the world was started
The red-blood hearts with the final word that was never said
I’m tossing in my bed

But everything is clear in the rear-view mirror
When nothing is left the lights of evening around us shine
Full pink and silver skies

You’ll always be a part of me
You gave me a song to sing
Dancing in your room innocent and true
Elvis tattoo on your shoulder
We’ll know better when we’re older

Do I ever cross your mind, through your window in the sky?
When you forget to close the blinds, so do I

I see you check your phone, wash the dishes and fold the clothes
Sometimes you stay up and get stoned, but you always sleep alone

We faked our deaths
Lit a match, closed the door and waited for the flash
Greyhound Station, we paid in cash
Miss Lazarus, we’re coming back

They say it’s darkest before the dawn
We’ve been in this town for far too long
They say it’s darkest before the dawn
We’re moving on

Sunset, no regrets
First chance, last dance, stuck in the middle
Even bad girls know good love
You taste so sweet it hurts a little

Make our home where we stand
One suitcase and half a plan
Follow the wolves and sing along
Past the voices to the song

They say it’s darkest before the dawn
We’ve been in this town for far too long
They say it’s darkest before the dawn
We’re moving on
