lyrics

Keep your pennies
Keep your clothes
Keep the lies you made up to soften the blow

Take your keys
Take the rack
Take my heart but don't ever bring it back

Mattress on the floor
I'll be what I was before

We fall to pieces
Did I let you down?
Did I let you down?
We're trembling under
The weight of this town
Come pick me up on your way downtown
Downtown

Make your mark
Make your mind
Make it all seem worthless in the interest of time

No regrets
No looking back
No one ever made me want to live in the past

I flew into the sun
You're not just anyone
I'm not just anyone

We fall to pieces
Did I let you down?
Did I let you down?
We're trembling under
The weight of this town
Come pick me up on your way downtown
Downtown

We're going in circles
I guess I let you down
I guess I let you down
We're trembling under
The weight of this town
Come pick me up on your way downtown
Downtown
