Another stint with depression Another reality TV election Watch the nuclear family fallout Gonna poison every house in this town You get the call from a landline Somebody finally put their foot on that landmine Watch a Jersey titan bow out Take a step toward the front of the line Now I got one hand on you Let the other one brace for impact The life I lose while I'm saving the one I still have Wish it didn't have to go this way Everything we love would always stay A glass break through the window Dissect the U of A right down the middle Watching a grown man cry Sterilize the guilt of being white The Big Bang in reverse Lessons we're bound to learn Stockpile some pain, keep a nice reserve I wanna hold you, I don't wanna hurt I got one hand on you Let the other one brace for impact The life I lose while I'm saving the one I still have Wish it didn't have to go this way Everything we love would always stay I think I let you down in a way that I'm afraid of And just around the block's a conversation of where we stand Who are you holding as the sun explodes? 'Cause we'll be losing light every night We start a race for the miles between us And what we've been escaping From where I stand Live for the country The front seat of my soul I got one hand on you Let the other one brace for impact The life I lose while I'm saving the one I still have Wish it didn't have to go this way Everything we love would always stay
