Downtown

I know you wanna drive
downtown
But I wanna stay home
I know you wanna run outside
But it's better me for inside
Somewhere where I can hide

Dancing to songs
that remind me of good times
Isn't it funny
That I'm happier by myself
I guess that I'm by myself

I know you like the city lights
The smell of gasoline on sight
The way my hair blows in wind
The way our hands are intertwined

I know
But I don't want that no more
I should've told you before
Before
Before, before, before
Before, before, before
Before, before, before
before
Before that ride downtown

If I have to tell you twice
I'd take my own advice
I know it's better for me
If I go on my own journey
If I'm ready for the gurney
What's the point in being lonely
I'm not waiting for a trophy

I know I've got things to do
Subscriptions to renew
A life to pursue
Someday I'll say I got through
Through to myself from you

My words are heavy
Bearing thousands of weights
This path I tread
Is full of restraints

This tree of wisdom I call my own
I nurture with words and love alone
The roots grow deeper under the earth
I flip the pages left and right
Trying to understand that night
Problems that I just don't get
But I don't think that could stand the lie
That we'll be fine

I know you like the city lights
The smell of gasoline on sight
The way my hair blows in wind
The way our hands are intertwined

I know
But I don't want that no more
I should've told you before
Before
Before, before, before
Before, before, before
Before, before, before
Before
Before that ride down town
