True Story

Tonight
Tonight I'll see the ocean
I'll walk into the water for the first time
So far
So far away
From this dead empty town I should feel great
But I don't

Yeah, I should have known
Better than to have come so far alone

I used to wonder where I'd be
If the roads we led went somewhere different
If we had never met would my life
Tear me down or make me stronger?

An evening spent on the coast alone
Taking cheer from the warmer weather
Well I could stay inside tonight
But how could I waste a day that feels like summer

Tonight
Tonight I see the ocean
I'll walk into the water for the first time

So far
So far away from this dead empty town I should feel great
But I don't
Yeah, I should have known
Better than to have come so far alone

As the waves roll in
I can't help but think about the weekends
At the windmills
And walking down
The streets of my home town
It doesn't feel right yeah
Seeing this without you
As far as I can go and back again to my closest friends
