Let's burn the boats, a cold shoulder
Can you talk with someone with me?
Cause I'm running with knives just to move on
At least the neighbours won't have to hear
I wanted kids and I tried to wait
I thought that maybe another day
We'd work through it all, undo our parents' mistakes
And you could see me as somebody worth your trust
I'm sure you'll turn heads
But don't misinterpret
I'm happier alone (Burn the boats!)
By all means place your bets (Burn the boats!)
Sincerely all the best (Burn the boats!)
I'll keep walking down the road
'Til death do us part seems a little exaggerated
Now we're strangers after all
It's best left unsaid, but we stepped on vows
Like one of my roaches on the goddamn floor
And I thought I'd be a dad, and maybe you'd be proud
I tried to be different, and not so loud
And maybe one day you'll finally see
That I have never been your enemy
(Burn The Boats!)
I'm sure you'll turn heads
But don't misinterpret
I'm happier alone (Burn the boats!)
By all means place your bets (Burn the boats!)
Sincerely all the best (Burn the boats!)
I'll keep walking down the road
I'm not staring at my phone for a message
I'm not spending nights alone wondering where you are
But I don't open the boxes, the letters
I keep them all buried away
(Burn the boats)
(Burn the boats)
(Burn the boats)
I didn't need to see your face
I didn't hold my breath
I didn't need to hear your voice
When there's nothing left
So here take the keys
I'll come back for the rest
And maybe we'll say
This is for the best
