Cigarette ash like wildfire Burning holes in the night time Open scars cut like barbed wire White lies flying high like a ceasefire Dropping flags on the shoreline This is as far as I can feel right 'Cause what you don't know Can haunt you And all we ever wanted Was sunlight and honesty Highlights to wanna repeat Let's get away from here and Live like the movies do I won't mind when it's over At least I didn't think for a while So let's run Make a great escape And I'll be waiting outside for the getaway It doesn't matter who we are We'll keep running through the dark And all we'll ever need is another day We can slow down 'cause tomorrow is a mile away And live like shooting stars 'Cause happy endings hardest to fake Sunsets on power lines Making a break for the other side Heading out to where that sunshine 45 millimeter rolling like we lost time Polaroids and outcast Rather burnout young than grow up fast And we could be forever future bound 'Cause all I need is time and now And I could leave this past behind me And all we ever wanted, was sunlight and honesty And maybe I'll see a way for me to stay Highlights to wanna repeat When there's so much out there Let's get away from here and
So I'll live forgetting for the time being Live like the movies do And I won't mind when it's over At least I didn't think for a while So let's run Make a great escape And I'll be waiting outside for the getaway It doesn't matter who we are We'll keep running through the dark And all we'll ever need is another day We can slow down 'cause tomorrow is a mile away And live like shooting stars 'Cause everything was never the same And I want to let you know I want to let you go But I just can't bring myself to speak But this is how it goes The end credits—they roll This bridge was built over kerosene But we can watch it Burn down We can watch it burn down And all I ever wanted Was sunlight and honesty Highlights to wanna repeat Let's get away from here and Live like the movies do I won't mind when it's over At least I didn't think So let's run Make a great escape And I'll be waiting outside for the getaway It doesn't matter who we are We'll keep running through the dark And all we'll ever need is another day We can slow down 'cause tomorrow is a mile away And live like shooting stars 'Cause you can wish away forever But you'll never find a thing like today
