Lyrics

[Intro]

Can you turn my guitar on?

[Verse 1]

And I'd give up forever to touch you

'Cause I know that you feel me somehow

You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be

And I don't wanna go home right now

[Verse 2]

'Cause all I can taste is this moment

And all I can breathe is your life

So, when sooner or later, it's over

I just don't wanna miss you tonight

[Chorus]

And I don't want the world to see me

'Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

[Verse 3]

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming

Or the moment of truth in your lies

So, when everything feels like the movies

Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive

[Chorus]

And I don't want the world to see me

'Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am, hey

I want you, guys, to take this one home, alright?

[Chorus]

And I don't want the world to see me

'Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

[Chorus]

And I don't want the world to see me

'Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am

Yeah!

[Outro]

You guys are the best

This is the best fourth of July ever

Ever, ever, ever!

Give yourself some love

You have no idea how much we love you

Good night!

Thank you for stickin' around

Alright, y'all

Yeah, we're gonna try to do one more for ya, okay?

We got one more
