lyrics

You're off to grow up and forget all of this
While I'm stuck in this town where the leaves still litter the ground
With the same friends who don't understand
that there is so much more to life in every way, than this.
-
Forget 'Brand New', this could be the last song for your mix tape
I think now that it's cold outside it would have more meaning that way
So sit alone in your dorm room and unpack the boxes of the past
As much as you'd like to forget me
I know it won't last.
So let it out now, the sun has gone down
This autumn air pierces right through your lungs and into your heart.
-
The rain floods the streets, the wind unmasks your trees
So run to the park and walk through the sand in your bare feet
No matter where you go the same moon will stare over you.
-
These concrete steps are getting rather cold,
The cards you've been dealt, you'd wish you could fold and give up.
Please don't give up, not now.
And you want to take off both your shoes
Tonight's your night to break all the rules
Run to the street, stare at the sky and fall to your knees and scream:
"I'm not gonna run away from you anymore!
Bring it on! Show me what you've got.
Cause I'm stronger now, I'm stronger now, I'm stronger now!
Cause I'm waiting for your storm."
-
The rain pitter patters on your forehead now...
It dances over your eyes mixing in unnoticed,
And that's why all the leaves fall, eventually.
