The Hell Back Home lyrics

Home >> Artists starting with E >> Every Avenue Lyrics >> The Hell Back Home

If it all was a dream then it was worth the memories
If I make it out alive then know that this got the best of me
My knuckles are white but I can't get a grip
If this is the last song I write
I'll make all the words fit

From the roof of this house
I watch the sun go down
On the town that I've cursed since I turned 16
A set of keys, I was California dreamin'
Drive, just drive

And I've been saying that I changed my ways
Disharmony seems to be my favorite word lately
And love had its hand up but I pushed it away
And I damn myself for the words I didn't say
And all the things I said I wouldn't do, I've done
When things get hard all I think to do is run
But all I want is something to call my own

I let my heart, woah, get the best of me this time
I lost myself and all that mattered most to me
But one thing doesn't make a man
One thing doesn't make a man

I can't believe all the things that I've seen

I was moving so fast, forgot to take it all in
It's the sad times and tears, and being alone
That makes you think of the times that mattered most

And now it's 5 years later and I'm still all alone
My closest thing to a friend, quarter dime in a payphone
And now I'm feeling all the pain that I've caused
Behind this broke down piano in the back of this bar

So this is California
The sun still sets the exact same was as back home
On that rooftop, the sun still sets the same

I let my heart, woah, get the best of me this time
I lost myself and all that mattered most to me
But one thing doesn't make a man
But one thing doesn't make a man

The lies I told, the hearts I broke
The things I had, I never told
The tip of my tongue, fingertips
Translate every word I must have missed
Forgot to mention when I lived back home
And now I'm going back to the only thing I ever knew

Woah, oh, get the best of me this time
I lost myself and all that mattered most to me
But one thing doesn't make a man

I let my heart, woah, get the best of me this time
I lost myself and all that mattered most to me
But one thing doesn't make a man
But one thing doesn't make a man
