Punishment

We had a bad day, nothing to say on the ride home
Bound for the hills and the west coast
Barely took my mind off of the weather and the time
And the changing of your footsteps
God, don't let this be my song, I've felt this way, way too long
The scariest part of love is living the saddest songs
Leave me, cause I don't ever wanna go home
I fell into the hands of punishment
Bound by lies and encouragement
By the time you read this I'll be miles away
How is the view from the other side of the fence?
I couldn't tell you, I just want it to make sense
Shredded her letters, she was stumbling on the ground
Protect the good of me
God, don't let this be my song, I've felt this way, way too long
The scariest part of love is living the saddest songs
Leave me, cause I don't ever wanna go home
I fell into the hands of punishment
Bound by lies and encouragement
By the time you read this I'll be miles away (2x)
What this means I'll never know, up all night, all alone
I'm freezing. What this means you'll never know, up all night, all alone
I'm freezing and your leaving
I fell into the hands of punishment
Bound by lies and encouragement
By the time you read this I'll be miles away (2x)
