Dog Days

We were selling our souls We believed every line we had ever been told Pack the car up and go Hypnotized by summer lies and Coppertone We were out on our own We were running down rainbows without any gold Younger, dumber and bold Before the dealers came collecting all the time that we stole Hey, hey, hey you know there's nowhere I'd rather be Just caught in the tide Where I stand all I know is an endless sea And when we arrive The dog days won't wait forever We chased the storms off the coast Hand me a shovel, it's time I buried all my ghosts And when I finish we'll float Beyond the breakers and the freighters and the hearts that we broke Hey, hey, hey you know there's nowhere I'd rather be Just caught in the tide Where I stand all I know is an endless sea And when we arrive I won't sleep til the carnival closes down And the dreamers are gone Shut my mouth, they found me screaming all over town Just try to hang on The dog days won't last forever No, don't give it all away There's still some time that they can't take Back when you were falling in line Don't wait for some invisible sign Run away Hey, hey, hey you know there's nowhere I'd rather be Just caught in the tide Where I stand all I know is an endless sea And when we arrive I won't sleep til the carnival closes down And the dreamers are gone Shut my mouth, they found me screaming all over town Just try to hang on The dog days won't wait forever
