Staring at the dead leaves in the backyard pool
Where did my life go?
What a spectacular view
All those old Irish songs at my grandfather's funeral
Seventeen candles on a birthday cake
Seems like yesterday
Falling out of love and hard drugs
Found my heart in Los Angeles
I don't have any answers for you yet
I'm still figuring out what I'm doing here
Keep your home in your heart
Keeps you out of the rain
Don't let no sad songs rot your brain
I hold the wheel while you light your cigarette
Burning down the highway out of here
My twenties slipping in my ears
I've been killing myself just to know how to feel
Laid out on my childhood bed
To the sound of, "Sam's Town" and my hands behind my head
I don't have any answers for you yet
I'm still figuring out what I'm doing here
Keep your home in your heart
Keeps you out of the rain
Don't let no sad songs rot your brain
Ask me again why I'm never really here
Nothing hurts me, hell is in my head
Ask me again why I'm never really here
Nothing lives forever, but it lives in my head
I don't have any answers for you yet
I'm still figuring out what I'm doing here
Keep your home in your heart
Keeps you out of the rain
Don't let no sad songs rot your brain
Don't let no sad songs rot your brain
Don't let no sad songs rot your brain
