Get me on the next flight to Detroit
Leave paradise to cry at my grandma's side.
I can't show her my tears, I don't want to cause more pain.
My hero's defeated, but for now we're still alive.
I wish we weren't inside these goddamn hospice walls,
but that's better than the fucking funeral home.
I'm so glad we get to see each other one last time.
I'm so fucking glad for now we're still alive.
Count your blessings, because this is death, and that's just life.
Count your blessings, because this is death, and this is life.

Sorry I'm late, I know it's out of character.
I spent too long getting ready and my train was late to Thornbury.
And lastly, I really didn't want to fucking see you here.
It's fucking freezing and this train's taking forever,
but never long enough, I wish it'd arrive on Wednesday afternoon.
So I could head straight to the airport, hop on my flight home, completely avoiding you with no fault of my own.
I have no say in the matter,
but it's a goddamn shame.
To just sit back and do nothing
and do nothing and just sit back as something beautiful dies.
I don't hate you, I just hate what happened to us. (x8, probably?)
So I'll just focus on both things I dislike about you,
the occasional cigarette and the fact you somewhat tolerate the cold,
and I'll tell myself I'm better off alone.

I thought I had a plan you couldn't refuse
The perfect plan (A perfect plan)
But you keep fucking it up by not abandoning
all your dreams to be with me
But you keep fucking it up by not abandoning
all your dreams to be with me
When I say my words out loud I realize I'm a fucking asshole
Reflecting on my actions, no wonder you don't want to be with me
You'd rather freeze to death in the goddamn arctic tundra
Than have to spend eternity in paradise chained to me
I can't blame you for shutting me down,
but you can't blame me for trying
For now I guess I'm fine having no plans,
or certainly not the plans we had.
And for now I guess I'm fine having no plans,
or certainly not the plans we had.
When I say my words out loud I realize I'm a fucking asshole
Reflecting on my actions, no wonder you don't want to be with me
You'd rather freeze to death in the goddamn arctic tundra
Than have to spend eternity in paradise chained to me
I'll live a fulfilled life alone
I'll live a fulfilled life alone
I'll live a fulfilled life alone

Blake asked, "What's the furthest place from here?",
I'm 10,000 miles away, and it feels like I've found it.
I just wanted to call to lie and say that everything was fine,
Like I don't even mind that it's grey and it's raining again
I just want to know what time it is where my mom lives,
And will I ever talk to you when one of us isn't exhausted?
I just want to know what time it is where my mom lives,
And will I ever talk to you when one of us isn't exhausted?
So I set my alarm for 4am to watch our Honolulu blue boys lose,
And have something relevant to say when I talk to you.
What's more important my sanity, or my cultural identity?
I swear I won't let this southern continent destroy me.
I just want to know what time it is where my mom lives,
And will I ever talk to you when one of us isn't exhausted?
I just want to know what time it is where my mom lives,
And will I ever talk to you when one of us isn't exhausted?
Sometimes I forget that Battle Creek even exists.
My phone says it's yesterday after in Detroit,
that's as close at it'll get.
You can take the boy out of Michigan,
you can't take Michigan out of me.
You can take the boy out of Michigan,
you can't take Michigan out of me.
You can take the boy out of Michigan,
you can't take Michigan out of me.
You can take the boy out of Michigan,
you can't take Michigan out of me.
