I Will Write Mine Over Potomac Lyrics
The coffee’s gone stale
My nerves are worn
The night grows colder still does the dawn
I’m waiting for hours
Not writing goodbyes
I’m looking at people but not in their eyes
Is this the way the future’s meant to be?
It looks a lot like yesterday to me
But I see potential in steel and concrete
With God and the Devil raging inside of me
I’ll never go back
I’ll never go back again
I’ll never go back
I will write mine over Potomac
The weight of the world and all you have shown it
If these are the moments only we get to keep
I’ll remember them softly just like a dream
And oh my god it turns out you were right
I saw the light gliding right out of sight
With both of my eyes
And there are some fears of mine
That you never can contain
Cause sometimes you just want to go
Where nobody knows your name
My nerves are worn
The night grows colder still does the dawn
I’m waiting for hours
Not writing goodbyes
I’m looking at people but not in their eyes
Is this the way the future’s meant to be?
It looks a lot like yesterday to me
But I see potential in steel and concrete
With God and the Devil raging inside of me
I’ll never go back
I’ll never go back again
I’ll never go back
I will write mine over Potomac
The weight of the world and all you have shown it
If these are the moments only we get to keep
I’ll remember them softly just like a dream
And oh my god it turns out you were right
I saw the light gliding right out of sight
With both of my eyes
And there are some fears of mine
That you never can contain
Cause sometimes you just want to go
Where nobody knows your name
