Whatever I Owe, I'll Pay It Back

from AM OK by That Dream Was Our Life

/

lyrics

Tell me what I owe, it's worth it for the moment
Say the words to me, I'll hold them for a year
Can I pay with silence? I guess I'm always hoping
It's never what you want, it's always what you fear

For no one to keep me up
For no one to hold me back
For no one to leave me stuck
Whatever I owe, I'll pay it back

Why don't you remember the silences for hours
That left me burning out like lights along the street
I still wake up in the dark like you were next to me
I've been going hard for nothing I can keep

For no one to keep me up
For no one to hold me back
For no one to leave me stuck
Whatever I owe, I'll pay it back

Didn't want to stay too long I painted all my dreams into a corner
Nothing's ever as it seems, you give up on a dream to find another

For no one to keep me up
For no one to hold me back
For no one to leave me stuck
Whatever I owe, I'll pay it back
