"Playlists & Apologies"
(Rob Kleiner / Matt Nathanson / Amir Salem / Aaron Tap)

I threw my phone out of the window tonight
So you couldn't go and change my mind
What doesn't kill you can drag you for miles
Til there's nothing left to recognize

[Pre-Chorus:]
Meet me out at the end of my rope
Won't you meet me at the end of my rope?

[Chorus:]
Every song was an anthem that the radio played for us
Every word was poetry rolling off our tongues
We were blooming like flowers, we were bending toward the sun
Now all that's left of you and me is playlists and apologies
Oh, apologies
Oh

We burned for years; we never could get enough
We had an epic movie trailer love
How could I slip so easy out of your mind?
From your trophy to your alibi

[Pre-Chorus:]
Meet me out at the end of my rope
Won't you meet me at the end of my rope?

[Chorus:]
Every song was an anthem that the radio played for us
Every word was poetry rolling off our tongues
We were blooming like flowers, we were bending toward the sun
Now all that's left of you and me: playlists and apologies
Oh, apologies
Oh

[Bridge:]
I'm not thinking clear; get myself away from here
Broken hearts and souvenirs
I'm not thinking clear; I'm a mess to you, my dear
Broken hearts, souvenirs
My God, what a way to go

[Chorus:]
Every song was an anthem that the radio played for us
Every word was poetry rolling off our tongues
We were blooming like flowers, we were bending toward the sun
Now all that's left of you and me: playlists and apologies
Oh, apologies
Oh
