I could've sworn I saw fireworks
From your house last night
As the lights flickered
and they failed
I had it all figured out
Why do I do this to
myself every time?
I know the way it ends
before it's even begun
I am the only one at the finish line
I took a trip out to the frozen lake
And you felt so far away
But I could feel it washing over me
There's no escaping
the harsh light of day
Why do I do this to
myself every time?
I know the way it ends
before it's even begun
I am the only one
at the finish line
Stood out on that
beach in Chicago
Woke up next to you
on Silver Lake Avenue
Wherever I went I always knew,
always knew
'Til I didn't know
Why do I do this
to myself every time?
I know the way it ends
before it's even begun
I am the only one
at the finish line
I could've sworn I saw fireworks
From your house last night
