Bigger Scars Make Better Stories

Can you see the same sky from where you are?

Do the Heavens really stretch so far?

From you to me and all that's left in between

This is my nightmare, the reason I lie awake at night

But in this ghost town we've doused all the lights

I've got this half moon and I'll save the other half for you

So close, so close, forget it

Cause close doesn't count when you're counting on me

This is how we'll ruin everything

Staring at the same stretch of highway for far too long

These winding roads, they never lead me back to the place that I belong

I count the planes as they pass overhead

The engine's warm and will serve as my bed

I slept on the hood of my car

To pretend the world was ours

So close, so close, forget it

Cause close doesn't count when you're counting on me

This is how we'll ruin everything

I wish that you could see how this is killing me

If bigger scars make better stories

Then you should see the scars on me

I've got this half moon, I'll save the other half for you

And every step I take is a step I should be taking back to you

To you, to you

To you, to you

So close, so close, forget it

Cause close doesn't count when you're counting on me

This is how we'll ruin everything

So close, so close, forget it

Cause close doesn't count when you're counting on me

This is how we'll ruin everything

I wish that you could see how this is killing me

If bigger scars make better stories

Then you should see the scars on me

So close, so close, forget it

Cause close doesn't count when you're counting on me

This is how we'll ruin everything

I wish that you could see how this is killing me

If bigger scars make better stories

Then you should see the scars on me
