Always Be

Jimmy Eat World · Chase This Light [2007]

Could have been a night like any other

One of us has to drive, one of us gets to think

I'll force a laugh to break the silence

It's going to get harder still before it gets easy

You can't keep safe what wants to break



I'm alone in this

I'm as I've always been

Right behind what's happening

She's lost in this

She's like she'll always be

A little far for me to reach



I was just a boy like every other

Thought I was something fierce

I thought I was ten times smarter

Love would be something that I'd just know

How are you going to know the feeling

Until you've lost it?

I've been losing plenty since...



I'm alone in this

I'm as I've always been

Right behind what's happening

She's lost in this

She's like she'll always be

A little far for me to reach



Maybe something else I'm missing

Something good and you're the reason

It's a dream but there's a real world waiting



I'm alone in this

I'm as I've always been

Right behind what's happening

She's lost in this

She's like she'll always be

A little far for me to reach



I'm alone in this

I'm as I've always been

Right behind what's happening

She's lost in this

She's like she'll always be

A little far for me to reach
