Burn The Boats

Let's burn the boats, a cold shoulder

Can you talk with someone with me?

Cause I'm running with knives just to move on

At least the neighbours won't have to hear

I wanted kids and I tried to wait

I thought that maybe another day

We'd work through it all, undo our parents' mistakes

And you could see me as somebody worth your trust

I'm sure you'll turn heads

But don't misinterpret

I'm happier alone (Burn the boats!)

By all means place your bets (Burn the boats!)

Sincerely all the best (Burn the boats!)

I'll keep walking down the road

'Til death do us part seems a little exaggerated

Now we're strangers after all

It's best left unsaid, but we stepped on vows

Like one of my roaches on the goddamn floor

And I thought I'd be a dad, and maybe you'd be proud

I tried to be different, and not so loud

And maybe one day you'll finally see

That I have never been your enemy

(Burn The Boats!)

I'm sure you'll turn heads

But don't misinterpret

I'm happier alone (Burn the boats!)

By all means place your bets (Burn the boats!)

Sincerely all the best (Burn the boats!)

I'll keep walking down the road

I'm not staring at my phone for a message

I'm not spending nights alone wondering where you are

But I don't open the boxes, the letters

I keep them all buried away

(Burn the boats)

(Burn the boats)

(Burn the boats)

I didn't need to see your face

I didn't hold my breath

I didn't need to hear your voice

When there's nothing left

So here take the keys

I'll come back for the rest

And maybe we'll say

This is for the best
