lyrics

don’t wanna follow
a plan so hollow
crossing an ocean on ambition only
spirit so shallow
out in the open
can’t break what’s broken
or count the months i’d owe ya
at 43.2 north
leaving love stillborn
won’t have to suffer anymore
i lied about everything
keep my soul as a wedding ring
pawn it for the real thing
if i never make it to the champs elysees
know i found my own way

south of the border
hear it’s warmer
at least the sun could keep you company
that is if you ever saw it
i know i never did
raced a revolved and i’m still running
two breaths under the covers
whisper to each other
i hope they’re still lovers
or did they make sorry goodbyes
then leave the countryside
fair-weather friends
with wide eyes
if i never make it to the champs elysees
know i found my own way
