It was a summer night in Texas The kind where the heat won't stop We were sitting in the backyard Trying to find that perfect song And we played those fucking records Even as the wax was wearing thin And we prayed to a god we don't believe in That our real lives would never begin You swore that you'd believe me When I'd say I'd stop pretending That this isn't my reality That this isn't who I want to be No I'm never coming back here Though giving up will kill me No I'm never coming back here Now it's springtime here in Germany I've no idea where Alex has gone Drunkenly screaming anthems into the street I can't believe how far we've come And we still play those fucking records Even as the wax is wearing thin And we pray to a god we don't believe in Our real lives will never begin You swore that you'd believe me When I'd say I'd stop pretending That this isn't my reality That this isn't who I want to be No I'm never coming back here Though giving up will kill me No I'm never coming back here Every night as we drive onward Down an unfamiliar road With an ache in my knees And a fire inside my throat I watch the sky fly by above me Out a rented van window I feel a sense of comfort and peace that I have never known You swore that you'd believe me When I'd say I'd stop pretending That this isn't my reality That this isn't who I want to be No I'm never coming back here Though giving up will kill me No I'm never coming back here It was a summer night in Texas The kind where the heat won't stop
