If It Only Worked That Way

lyrics

Flat, rolling along we were born to this storm, can't turn it off and on, so we wait,
for the clearing of the stage, for the clouds to open up and break

If it only worked that way, I’d stay here by your side
If it only were that way, there’d be no need to cry

But it is what it is in the time when we’re alive, and I want you to know that you’ll always be a friend of mine,
Well, I like driving, and don’t wait up cuz im not coming home.
Yeah, I guess you were right, all those times, when you said that you thought that I wouldn’t ever make you mine
Well, I like hiding, and don’t wake up cuz i'm not coming home

Collapsed, but still rolling along we were born to this thorn, cant turn it off and on, so we wait,
for the clearing of the slate, for the clouds to open up and break

If it only worked that way, if it only were that way
If it only worked that way, if it only were that way

But it is what it is in the time when we’re alive, and I wont you to know that you’ll always be a friend of mine,
Well, I like driving, and don’t wake up cuz im not coming home.
I guess you were right, all those times, when you said that you thought that I wouldn’t ever make you mine
Well, I like hiding, and don’t wake up cuz im not coming home
