Sometimes I wonder where our lives go
They question who we used to be
Sometimes I feel like i'm the oxygen between
The cigarette and gasoline
I can't sleep cause what if I dream
Of going back to San Diego
We bought a one way ticket
So we could go see the Cure
And listen to our favorite songs in the parking lot
And think of every person I ever lost to San Diego
(To San Diego)
Can't go back to San Diego
(Can't go back to San Diego)
Abandoned Houses with the lights on
Late at night I call your name
Abandoned love songs smashed across the hardwood floors
I read the sadness on your face
I can't sleep cause what if I dream
Of going back to San Diego
We bought a one way ticket
So we could go see the Cure
And listen to our favorite songs in the parking lot
And think of every person I ever lost to San Diego
(To San Diego)
Can't go back to San Diego
(Can't go back to San Diego)
I never needed to hear
All of the pain and the fear
Your secrets filled up my ears
Like the ocean blue
I never wanted to know
How deep these cuts on you go
And like a river they flow to the ocean blue
Going back to San Diego
We bought a one way ticket
So we could go see the Cure
And listen to our favorite songs in the parking lot
And think of every person I ever lost to San Diego
(To San Diego)
Can't go back to San Diego
(Can't go back to San Diego)
They question who we used to be
Sometimes I feel like i'm the oxygen between
The cigarette and gasoline
Of going back to San Diego
We bought a one way ticket
So we could go see the Cure
And listen to our favorite songs in the parking lot
And think of every person I ever lost to San Diego
(To San Diego)
Can't go back to San Diego
(Can't go back to San Diego)
Late at night I call your name
Abandoned love songs smashed across the hardwood floors
I read the sadness on your face
Of going back to San Diego
We bought a one way ticket
So we could go see the Cure
And listen to our favorite songs in the parking lot
And think of every person I ever lost to San Diego
(To San Diego)
Can't go back to San Diego
(Can't go back to San Diego)
All of the pain and the fear
Your secrets filled up my ears
Like the ocean blue
I never wanted to know
How deep these cuts on you go
And like a river they flow to the ocean blue
We bought a one way ticket
So we could go see the Cure
And listen to our favorite songs in the parking lot
And think of every person I ever lost to San Diego
(To San Diego)
Can't go back to San Diego
(Can't go back to San Diego)

This song is about Tom. Mark confirmed, and said it was very difficult for him to write.
