I’ve got tired eyes, a black sky Making it’s home under my lash line You keep on crying, babe I don’t mind I keep on staring at the clock tryna pass time
In my life, it flies by Faster than you could say “I love you, goodbye”
“It’s almost over”, you say with a sigh Will our lives be better when we make it to the other side? Hope we make it to the other side
Eighteen, prom queen We spend our time thinking ‘bout what we’ll be doing We walk quiet streets, not afraid of the sounds Nothing bad ever happens in this town
Mean dreams, can’t sleep Younger me thought this’d be more bittersweet But we never noticed how long I’d been Got too caught up in the life we’re living Hope we make it to the other side
And I hope, I hope All of our homes have white fences I hope, I hope Our smiles are wider than theirs is I hope, I hope All of our dreams are kept fragrant And I’ll meet you on the pavement When we make it to the other side Hope we make it to the other side
