Bruises and scrapes
All life's mistakes
Are nothing but bad weather
Help you sneak in
All of my friends
Just so we could leave together
The books I won't read
The air that I'll breathe
The colors I've seen
I'll leave these pages in the trees
——————————————
Today
Leave good for great
Leave sleep for late
Leave good for great
Leave sleep for late
Leave good for great
Leave sleep for late
Leave good
——————————————
[Chorus]
So many books that I didn't read
But there's so much air I chose to breathe
How about the colors that I've seen
So I'll leave these pages in the trees
——————————————
I don't sit alone
Or pick up my phone
One day we'll say
All that we had
The beaten path
Is beaten fast
I'm practicing hooks and jabs
I traced a few lines
Misread all the signs
Slipped many times
My blood's still red and I'm just fine
——————————————
Today
Leave good for great
Leave sleep for late
Leave good for great
——————————————
[Chorus]
——————————————
We sing along but the notes are wrong
We sing along through night and dawn
(x5)
