'Twas the week before the winter
And the gang was all in town
You forgot but I remember
Everything about it now
Said you fell in love in school
With a girl straight from a dream
So you sat there on the playground
Took too much amphetamine
When you got down
I was speeding like a fool
Thinking I could save you
Like I'm the exception to the rule
I stood
At the door of your place
Wondering how to
Get out of this headspace
I ranted to a stranger
At some upscale downtown bar
They didn't have much to say
But they looked like a moviе star
But they didn't know you
Hell, I don't know if I do
After six yеars
Of being stupid in love with you
When you got down
I was speeding like a fool
Thinking I could save you
Like I'm the exception to the rule
I stood
At the door of your place
Wondering how to
Get out of this headspace
So I drove until my body gave out
I was screaming out the window but no sound
Was coming out
You and I, we burned it to the ground
