Somewhere in the desolate land between Lubbock, Texas and Portales, New Mexico
There's a firework stand with this weird off-green coloring and the black sloppy letters give me hope
And everything was beautiful and nothing hurt
Not the stab wound the burn marks the unkind words
But if you gotta go
I think you should go
Get outta dodge so I can cry alone
And if you gotta leave well I think that you should
Get some help you know I would if I could

Somewhere in the desolate land between Lubbock, Texas
And Denton just off campus
There's a cigarette but with my lipstick on it
Starting wildfires and burning acres to ashes
It'll be so pretty
Watching the sunset over miles of fire
As I have trouble breathing

And everything was beautiful and nothing hurt
Not the loneliness or the stolen shirts
But if you gotta go
I think you should go
Get outta dodge so I can cry alone
And if you gotta leave
Well that's alright
I hope I see you one day before I die
Somewhere in an empty house on Arizona
I left you to fend for yourself
Left you a couple songs and my PlayStation
I know my whiny bitch ass is no help

Now nothing is the same as it was when you were here
I miss getting high and playing star wars on my floor while drinking beer
And I miss those years more than I miss the 18 that were before
Steven listen up this is for you 'cause you are my brother
And I love

Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt
Not the leaving the goodbye the unsaid words
But if you gotta go
I think you should go
Get outta dodge so I can cry alone
And if you gotta leave I understand
I hope one day I get to see your face again
