I'll double down on solid ground
When I see that shore
How the night is dark
When the light was all I wanted
Or you to take me for

Got my head in hands now
We're stuck in broken lands
We never thought we'd have to know
Watch it come to ruin
All the fall-down news headlining low

But I swear I don't care
Just tell me where we're going to
Or find me back in time
When I hoped we might
Have more to lose

We faced the crowd
And screamed so loud
For our time to come
Then I felt your touch
It was just enough to keep these
Parlor words off my tongue
From the rocky coast
To the seaside ghosts on beaches
Hanging under heavy stars
The terms of love
For the lands I'm of
Have torn apart

Oh, I swear I don't care
Just tell me where we're going to
Or find me back in time
When I hoped we might
Have more to lose

I swear I'm prepared
To strike out where
We might be young
Or find us marking time
To November crimes
You and I'll become
