Intro

Never for - get, there's life after death and taxes.

- [let fade out]

Forgivness comes, all of the rest it passes away

  And i'm good, good, good to go

And i'm good, good, good to go

  Gotta get away

  Get away from all of my mis-takes

Verse 1

So here I sit looking at the traffic lights

 The red extinguishes the hope that the green ig-nites

 I want to run away I want to ditch my life

 Cause all of my mis-takes keep me awake at night

Prechorus

And after all of my alibis desert me

 I just want to get by

I don’t want nothing to hurt me

 I had no idea where my head was at

 But if my heart says I’m sorry can we leave it at that

 Because I just want for all of this to end

Chorus

 And I so hate consequences

 And running from you is what my best defense is

Hate these consequences

God, don’t make me face up to this

 And I so hate consequences

 And running from you is what my best defense is

Cause I know that I let you down

And I don’t want to deal with that

  And i'm good, good, good to go

And i'm good, good, good to go

  Gotta get away

  Get away from all of my mis-takes

Verse 2

-

It just now hit me this is more than just a set back

 And when you spelled it out, well, I guess I didn’t get that

And every trace of momentum is gone

 And this isn’t turning out the way I want

Prechorus

And after all of my alibis desert me

 I just want to get by

I don’t want nothing to hurt me

 I had no idea where my head was at

 But if my heart says I’m sorry can we leave it at that

 Because I just want for all of this to end

Chorus

-

 And I so hate consequences

 And running from you is what my best defense is

Hate these consequences

God, don’t make me face up to this

 And I so hate consequences

 And running from you is what my best defense is

Cause I know that I let you down

And I don’t want to deal with that

Interlude

-

And I spent all last night

 Tearing down

Every stoplight

 And stop sign in this town

Now I think there might

 Be no way to stop me now

I'll get away despite

 The fact I’m so weighed down ooooohh ooohhh

 The fact I’m so weighed down ooooohh ooohhh
