lyrics

Tell the truth,
Because our ears are wide open.
Force us out of this town,
That's what you wanted.
If you stand too close you might fall
Into jealousy and come back for more.
They say "if you play with fire, you will get burned",
These surface scars won't heal up soon.

And I know that you need to release,
All the pain that is lost in your head.

I don't want to rain on your parade,
But I can't help this stormy weather.
If you want to find a place that shines,
We can both trek out there after.
I don't want to know where to go.
I don't want to know where to go.

They will take you in and plant a seed,
And then they'll let the growth begin,
To weed away your innocence.
I won't give in,
We've run to far for this to fall apart.
For this to fall apart.

And I know that you need to release,
All the pain that is lost in your head.

I don't want to rain on your parade,
But I can't help this stormy weather.
If you want to find a place that shines,
We can both trek out there after.
I don't want to know where to go.
I don't want to know where to go.

Don't want to know where to go,
We both gotta know that we're making the most.

I don't want to rain on your parade,
But I can't help this stormy weather.
If you want to find a place that shines,
We can both trek out there after.
I don't want to know where to go.
I don't want to know where to go.
