Your Choices

no one's gonna screw you around

spent years keeping part of yourself down

you come around, you sell it now

like it was always your intention

gas station lights and salty air

faded blue sky on the water

feel a slip in your chest

you just wanna understand

your choices got you going over

everything that you never did

get this one right, so get gone

to zero

see how you run

see how you run

now you're on the 101

driving through the hills that don't own you

you wanna stay far away

cause you don't know how to get closer

after image, the colors went

like headlights on a hotel wall

tears are running through your hands

you just want to understand

your choices got you going over

everything that you never did

get this one right, so get gone

to zero

see how you run

see how you run

you're still talking, she's already hung up

you don't let the real you out

plastic key ring for room 218

you're only waiting for a new start

roll the words in your hand

til the meaning shoots a shiver up your spine

no where that you'll ever go

will be far enough from where you were

your choices got you going over

everything that you never did

get this one right, so get gone

to zero

see how you run

see how you run

to zero
