it's been a year to date
since you've gone away
i haven't heard from you
i've got a ticket to nowhere
the one-way last train out of here
you can bet i'll be on it
i know you're out there somewhere
still pretending you don't care
i know you miss me too
i should have seen this coming
but don't worry, i'm used to numbness
i know i got the best of you
you're the closest thing to heaven
on this side of town
wish i could say you're not okay
it's my turn to look the other way
you're the closest thing to freedom
on this side of town
you're every kind of beautiful
you're my kind of miracle
like a drug i used to crave
like some soul i need to save
i never asked for you
you were my last chance to change
to finally love but it's so strange
how much i hated after you
i know you're out there somewhere
still pretending you don't care
i know you miss me too
i should have seen this coming
but don't worry, i'm used to numbness
i know i got the best of you
you're the closest thing to heaven
on this side of town
wish i could say you're not okay
it's my turn to look the other way
you're the closest thing to freedom
on this side of town
you're every kind of beautiful
you're my kind of miracle
i'm setting these bridges on fire tonight
you always were one to put up a fight
i'm sure you'll take comfort in the fact
i'm never looking back
this is the last time you'll hear me say
you're the closest thing to heaven, heaven
you're the closest thing to freedom
i know you're out there somewhere
still pretending you don't care
i know you miss me too
i should have seen this coming
but don't worry, i'm used to numbness
i know i got the best of you
you're the closest thing to heaven
on this side of town
you're every every every every
kind of unforgettable
you're the closest thing to freedom
on this side of town
you're every kind of beautiful
you're my kind of miracle
Staggering! I'm used to numbness - what a line that is! When will you be signed? I hope you are playing live spots.
