this place is beautiful, i don’t know how to get back home
it’s far enough away and fair enough for me to throw the odds into the wind
and everything that meant anything before
meant nothing when the sun rose over green-capped hills
but you don’t feel the sun anymore

this place is difficult, you know it’s tearing you and i to shreds
we’ve come an awfully long way just to shut our eyes and wait for low tide
skipping beats, measures and stones
if i wanted to feel like i was cast away, i would have stayed back home in chicago
where at least i know that my friends and my home are just a train away

this place will burn
because cast aways set fire to the beaches to learn

i’ve seen the west and the deserts where the oceans had been
your heartbeat, so cr-ss and unapologetic
your hands, so dry and cold
but waking up to the trash and smokestacks
doesn’t make me feel so sad about the river anymore
you know, the sun don’t rise just west of here

i can feel your january breath on my neck and it burns like summer
if nothing golden stays
and we let it hang and fade
like medals, at least we’ve placed

i don’t keep the voicemails so i can hear you call me ‘baby’
but it’s proof that you once bled redder than you’d like to remember
if the valves in our hearts are in binary code
while some of them open, others stay closed
some doors open when others stay closed
i’m punching broken numbers into subway pay-phones ‘til you’re back home
we’ve still got time

some days strike you down
i know some nights are spent alone
when you’ve been thrown more curves than bones
and you’ve built more walls than homes

a broken heart can break your spine sometimes
love & pain are sometimes the same, alright?

we grow old, grow out of touch with ourselves and eachother
what it takes to be happy, i don’t know
what kind of fool would fall in love with someone who gave up on themselves?
what it takes to be happy, i don’t know
what it takes to be happy, i don’t know
