Emily I'm Sorry

She's asleep in the backseat
Looking peaceful enough to me
But she's wakin' up inside a dream
Full of screeching tires and fire

We're comin' back from where no one lives
Pretty much just veterans
When I pointed out where the North Star is
She called me "a fuckin' liar"

Emily (Emily, I), I'm sorry, I just
Make it up as I go along, and
I can feel (I can feel) myself becoming
Someone only you could want

Headed straight for the concrete
In a nightmare, screaming
Now I'm wide awake, spiraling
And you don't wanna talk

Just take me back to Montreal
I'll get a real job, you'll go back to school
We can burn out in the freezing cold
And just get lost

Emily (Emily, I), I'm sorry, baby
You know how I get (you know how I get) when I'm wrong
And I can feel (I can feel) myself becoming
Somebody I'm not, I'm not, so

Emily (Emily, I), forgive me, can we
Make it up as we go along?
I'm 27, and I don't know who I am (don't know who I am)
But I know what I want

Emily, I'm sorry
Emily, I'm sorry

I'm sorry
