lyrics

Cherry picking lines from old songs
Lines full of mourning
For the lines that I lost
Pieced together like a blurred out night
We'll find our way home
If the lines fade just right
Why wasn't I true to you?
Wish I could blame what your heart's been telling you to do
We could find a quiet town
Where trains don't come 'round
Instead of drinking alone all night
In a two tavern town

Walking down both sides of the road
I've lost track of whether we're leaving
Or headed home
The night must still be young
Cause I ain't nearly fucked up enough
To think we belong
Why can't you live with happiness
Wish I could blame
Something that I could fix
We could try to settle down
Find some higher ground
Than the quicksand
Swallowing our heels
In a two tavern town

I've been living on the bottom of your heart
You've been busy on the back end of my head
While you're wondering how a bad thing gets its start
I'll be dreaming on the cold side of your bed

I never meant to make you feel so bad
But tell the truth, I'm starting to wish that I had
And I know you never meant to do wrong
But the Devil's in the details
And our intentions paved the road he's on
Why don't we ever try new sins?
We've been doing everything together but living
We could find a quiet town
Where the trains don't come 'round
But we're better off drinking alone
In a two tavern town
