Now, more than any time before
I strap a spacesuit to my chest
And watch the planet that I left
It rises slow
More than any dream I’ve dreamt
With her Cailin Russo neck
I can see her from the deck out by the road
More than any girl I’ve had
She could drink and take a drag
When you’re young that’s all you have
And this I know
Life’s not simple here anymore
And I’ve gone mental
Over how to leave this world
And go back home
She, more than any pretty thing
I will miss her most of all
When her towers start to fall into the sea
More than any life I’ve lead
I know that one was the best
Cause I spent it on my chest between her knees
And her rivers still they run
Whether crashing to the sun ends her life
Will I be young enough to see?
Life’s not simple here anymore
And I’ve gone mental
Over how to leave this world
And go back home
Life’s not simple here anymore
And I’ve gone mental
Over how to leave this world
And go back home
More than any time before
I think I’ve finally figured out
Being happy with yourself and with your life
We got pretty stoned
With your hands on your chest and my ego
And we, we climbed to the roof
And the morning laid rest all around you
And I won’t forget how you looked in that dress
On the day that first I met you
You had all your friends
And a camera to make them look vintage
And I, I felt like a king
When you leaned yourself into my window
To sing me a song that I wrote for my mom
On the day that first I met you
And it only took a day
With that tattoo of yours
And the look on your face
You told me real quick
“Hey, I think that you’re funny,
So much so I think
That I could be your baby.”
And I still regret every word that I said
On the day that first I met you
