Lyrics

Maybe I left here a long time ago
And neither of us knew it

Would they say I've lost the plot
Would you say I blew it

Thought I found a way back home
And now I'm looking through it

After all this time spent gone
I think I just outgrew it

Empty out my bedroom
Throw all that stuff away
All I'm taking with me now is a blank slate
'Cause these days are too short
To live a whole life through
In this land-locked,
In this land-locked heart with you

Maybe I left here a long time ago
And maybe we both knew it

Maybe this could've been heaven
But the weeds just grew right through it

So what is left of paradise
Out beyond it's edges

Empty lights, sunset skies
Over the empty hedges

Were we supposed to waste away

Empty out my bedroom
Throw all that stuff away
All I'm taking with me now is a blank slate
'Cause these days are too short
To live a whole life through
In this land-locked,
In this land-locked heart with you
