The lights of Virginia are too bright to stand
So, she's walking home
With a new life in her hands
Past the dead-end streets and run-down plans
She's got a good one to follow a man
She swears that he's different
He's not like the rest
He sings in the kitchen
He's good with the kids
A few good years then it starts to hit
She put it all in but he's calling it quits
So, I've given up on believing
That everybody gets a chance
And I don't understand
Why she does it to herself
When she knows how it ends
Still I wouldn't trade it
This thing that we do
Just know it's a feeling that I never knew
I'm slow, but you're patiently walking me through
When we talk in the dark of your room
I try to be in it
And cry, but I can't
You just cut me open
Saying that's what I am
I'm betting my fate on a line in your hand
It finally feels like a good place to land
But l've grown up on the feeling of falling to my knees again
So, I don't understand
Why we do it to ourselves
When we know how it ends
