[Intro]
           

[Verse 1]
             
She’s asleep i

         
n the backseat
           
looking peacef

          
ul enough to m

/
e,
             
but she’s waki

      
ng up inside a

 dream
             
full of screec

          
hing tires and

 fire.

[Verse 2]
             
We’re coming b

              
ack from where

  
 no one lives,
           
pretty much ju

       
st veterans.
             
When I pointed

              
 out where the

  
 north star is

,
              
she called me 

   
a fucking liar

.

[Chorus]
          
Emily, I’m sor

ry I just
             
make it up as 

   
I go along
             
and I can feel

  
 myself becomi

ng
             
someone only y

    
ou could want.

[Verse 3]
             
Headed straigh

         
t for the conc

rete
           
in a nightmare

       
 screaming.
             
Now I’m wide a

         
wake, spiralin

g,
           
and you don’t 

       
want to talk.

[Verse 4]
             
Just take me b

         
ack to Montrea

l.
           
I’ll get a rea

       
l job, you’ll 

go back to sch

ool.
             
We can burn ou

         
t in the freez

ing cold
           
and just get l

   
ost.

[Chorus]
          
Emily, I’m sor

ry, baby.
             
You know how I

   
 get when I’m 

wrong and
             
I can feel mys

  
elf becoming
             
somebody I’m n

    
ot, I’m not so

-
          
Emily, forgive

 me, can we
             
make it up as 

   
we go along?
             
I’m twenty sev

  
en and I don’t

 know who I am
        
but I know wha

t I want.

[Outro]

Emily, I’m sor

ry.

Emily, I’m sor

ry. I’m sorry.
