lyrics

With the country music
Fillin' the empty seat
Of the taxi cab that's takin' me to the show
Remindin' me of the things that I don't have
And the places I can't go

I'm just tryin' to calm my nerves
Take a shot, check my phone
Pretendin' I'm not the only one
Only one I know

Tell your life story in song
We've got all night long
Well the sun can wait
Another day
To bring light to
The madness of our ways

I keep myself up late these days
To avoid the empty room
The echos of a sigh
Bounce off the walls
And hit my ears too soon

I'm engineering a way out
But don't understand the math
And the rejections beg the question
'Is fate just here to laugh?'

These simple pleasures don't come cheap
But they're callin' out to me
An empty heart can only beat
And fall apart at the seams
