It took me 21 years to realize I’ve Never seen the west coast So now I’m leaving behind The ones I love the most Cause when your understanding of The world is limited to the Places that you’ve been You gotta pack your shit and go And regret nothing
I’m sorry babe but this is the Way it has to be Don’t bother waiting around for me
I lost my chance with the girl who means More to me than anything For the chance to drive our Cars across the country And as we drove to the edge of the City in my head I saw taillights glowing red Cause I needed to find myself But not in the shadow of anybody else It won’t happen again
I found my heart out west in San Francisco And we got blown away in Chicago But it breathed life into my lungs And I lost my fucking mind On the long drive through the mid west These hours worth of nothing brought my Thoughts back to you
And now we’re driving down these streets at midnight Singing all your favorite song I knew you’d rule my subconscious before Too long.

I found a different part of me in Every state line across the country. I took my insecurities and Set them to sea I buried the thought of you and me At the farthest shore at the depths of the ocean floor I cut ties to the anchor and set myself free
