Can't Get There From Here

I pulled the letter from my pocket

You closed your door and I said, "Lock it."

I wanna say to you, I've sincerely thought this out

I felt the need to use this paper

To list the things that tend to taper off

Like conversations we complete under our breath

When it hurts so bad

And we act like nothing's wrong

Are the little things enough to break this off?

When the sun, it goes down on a parking lot

Do you run? Do you fight? Do you not

Settle down or can we still connect the dots?

Cause we ain't gonna get there from here

I give you time to crack your window

Adjust your cap, the big crescendo

I'm waiting for an anything to let me know your stance

And you look over with those shadowed eyes

And the windows fog as you try and size it up

Is this the end? Is this the place where nothing lives?

When it hurts so bad

Is the damamge just too strong?

Should it really be this hard to move along?

When the sun, it goes down on a parking lot

Do you run? Do you fight? Do you not

Settle down or can we still connect the dots?

Cause we ain't gonna get there from here

When it hurts so bad

Are we right where we belong?

When it hurts so bad, so bad

When the sun, it goes down on a parking lot

Do you run? Do you fight? Do you not

Settle down or can we still connect the dots?

Cause we ain't gonna get there from here

We ain't gonna get there

We ain't gonna get there, not from here
