Torn Out Loud 2 (version 2)

Verse

Five on the highway, gravel rattling through

Rust belt moonlight casting shadows on you

I used to hum along with whatever came on

Now I'm driving south and your voice is where we go

Pre-Chorus

Can I break every rule you ever taught me?

Can I lose myself inside what it means to be free?

Every streetlamp casts a shadow on the past

Tell me which one is yours, which one will last

Chorus

I'm tearing down your garden so we can start anew

Torn out loud and running wild into something true

You used to teach me quiet, every word was gold

Now I'm throwing open all the windows that you tried to hold

Verse

Old town diner, coffee in a stained thermos cup

Your laughter echoes off the chrome where nobody's supposed to touch

I used to fold my collar like I didn't know the way

Now I'm wearing your sweatshirt, got your name scribbled on it in crayon today

Pre-Chorus

Can I break every rule you ever taught me?

Can I lose myself inside what it means to be free?

Every streetlamp casts a shadow on the past

Tell me which one is yours, which one will last

Chorus

I'm tearing down your garden so we can start anew

Torn out loud and running wild into something true

You used to teach me quiet, every word was gold

Now I'm throwing open all the windows that you tried to hold

Bridge

Maybe this is how love looks when it's not a rule

Chorus

I'm tearing down your garden so we can start anew

Torn out loud and running wild into something true

You used to teach me quiet, every word was gold

Now I'm throwing open all the windows that you tried to hold
