Lyrics

The phones get shut down, around nine
We’re points behind it’s an, uphill climb
As my eyes scan this room, I’ve decided
That I’ve gotta, make you mine

But I’m stuck out here in Manassas, for tonight

I know there’s a story, and you have a fight
Under stars by the lake I am ready, and I know my side
I could tell as we drank it away, that I had to try

So tonight I’ll be out on Lake Mercer, counting night’s light

You are so pretty, it makes me mad
I’ve been so quiet, making a plan
As it fumbles out you look scared, and I can’t stand

And I’m stuck out up here on a balcony, with shaky hands

The moonlight is shining, down from the sky
Glaring off ocean, and into my eye
Reflecting off water that’s already been cried

And I’m stuck down here in Carolina, for one more night

I’m walking on built up ocean, gonna throw all my intentions in
Watch them all float away, only sink past the break
But I know tomorrow I’ll be leaving with them
And I don’t know what that means for us
The color green, is killing me
I can’t help you, because I can’t help me
So I’m gonna lie, and say I’ll be just fine till it’s true
