"False Starts" lyrics

"False Starts"

Fast car, fast heart, trouble in my brain
Big dreams, false starts and I know I've changed
Don't want the things we can't have
Watching my life just roll past

Old rooms, new paint
Still it looks the same
Sad thoughts, bad luck
With no one to blame

They say that trouble don't last
Sometimes the pain makes me laugh

It's hard but it only gets harder
Tonight we can go it alone

No one ever has to know
No one ever has to know
No one ever has to know
But I know I have to go
Yeah, I'm shakin', my heart's naked
Out of control

There's no more time, gotta get my way
What do you want? We don't have to stay
Trust me, you're not gonna crash
They say that trouble don't last

It's hard but it only gets harder
Tonight we can go it alone

No one ever has to know
No one ever has to know
No one ever has to know
But I know I have to go
Yeah, I'm shakin', my heart's naked
Out of control

Before I leave a part of me behind
Before I leave a part of me behind
Before I leave a part of me behind

No one ever has to know
No one ever has to know
Before I leave a part of me behind
No one ever has to know
But I know I have to go
Yeah, I'm shakin', my heart's naked
Out of control
