lyrics

did you know when you put it on the shelf so many years ago that this would be the start of something new? parallel developments 100 miles away ensure that my heart will be forever true. in any case, i have to say, you saved me from myself. at the times when i felt the most lost, you never stopped reaching out.

here i stand, feet firmly on the ground. let’s start a band, we’ll play until our hearts are empty. i’d be damned without you as my friend, i’d be damned...

from pompadoured prima donas to basement shows with jeff and all the different lifetimes that we lived inbetween. i’d never say that we’ve seen it all. there seems to be so much left to do. all i can say is that i’m grateful to do all of this with you.

here i stand, feet firmly on the ground. let’s start a band, we’ll play until our hearts are empty. i’d be damned without you as my friend, i’d be damned...

all the basements in new jersey lead us home and all the places that i’ve ever been i’ve never been alone. we learn the words together an album at a time. we’ll sing along forever. we’ll sing along forever.

here i stand, feet firmly on the ground. let’s start a band, we’ll play until our hearts are empty. i’d be damned without you as my friend, i’d be damned...
