La[00:00:00]
I was turning nineteen on a cold December night[00:00:21]
Burning like kerosene for nearly half of my life[00:00:27]
And I barely had the GPA to make it out of Eugene[00:00:32]
You can blame it on me with a ADHD while[00:00:37]
I'm falling asleep during the Sat's[00:00:40]
And as I pack my bags and headed to a foreign land[00:00:43]
One way ticket on a one way plane[00:00:47]
Laying my head down alone each night[00:00:49]
The same devil's calling and that same old fight[00:00:52]
'Cause this one's for middle surfs living in the middle love[00:00:54]
Where they coming from and a halfway rush of blood[00:00:58]
This ones for those first prayers to heaven on a road that seems never ending[00:01:00]
For all the heartbreak dreamers waiting for the light[00:01:05]
Looking for just one reason to get through the night[00:01:11]
Every long lost believer caught in the fight[00:01:16]
All the heartbreak dreamers gonna be alright[00:01:22]
Everybody sing[00:01:27]
La[00:01:28]
And I was turning twenty five in a city that don't sleep[00:01:52]
Was feeling only half alive to the dreams that I keep[00:01:57]
And I kept on waiting only she's waiting for me[00:02:03]
You burning down lane on a quarter tank of pain with soles off your feet[00:02:08]
And you've been waiting and praying for the right one to come[00:02:13]
Watch the rising and the falling of another setting sun[00:02:17]
Nobody seems quite good enough for you[00:02:20]
Except the wrong one she keep running back to[00:02:22]
So this one's for Mike still waiting for his wife[00:02:25]
This one's for grandma losing the love of her life[00:02:28]
This ones for those first prayers to heaven on a road that seems never ending[00:02:31]
For all the heartbreak dreamers waiting for the light[00:02:36]
Looking for just one reason to get through the night[00:02:41]
Every long lost believer caught in the fight[00:02:47]
All the heartbreak dreamers gonna be alright[00:02:52]
Everybody sing[00:02:57]
La[00:02:59]
And this one right here ah this is for the fat girls[00:03:23]
This one is a is for the little brothers[00:03:31]
This is for the schoolyard wimps for the childhood bullies who tormented them[00:03:36]
To the former prom queen and to the milk-crate ball players[00:03:41]
For the nighttime cereal eaters and for the retired elderly walmart store front door greeters[00:03:45]
Shake the dust[00:03:53]
This is for the benches and the people sitting upon[00:03:56]
For the bus drivers driving a million broken hymns[00:03:59]
To the men who have to hold down three jobs[00:04:02]
Simply to hold up their children[00:04:04]
For the nighttime schoolers and for the midnight bike riders trying to fly[00:04:06]
Shake the dust[00:04:11]
This is for the two-year-olds who cannot be understood[00:04:14]
Because they speak half English and half God[00:04:16]
Shake the dust[00:04:18]
For the boys with the beautiful beautiful sisters[00:04:20]
Shake the dust[00:04:23]
For the girls with those brothers who are going crazy[00:04:24]
Those gym class wallflowers and the twelve-year-olds afraid of taking public showers[00:04:27]
For the kid who is always late to class[00:04:31]
And forgets the combination to his lockers[00:04:33]
And the girl who loved somebody else[00:04:35]
Shake the dust[00:04:38]
This is for the hard men who want love but know that it won't come[00:04:40]
For the one's amendments who not stand up for[00:04:45]
The ones who are forgotten[00:04:48]
For the ones who are told to speak only when you are spoken to[00:04:50]
And then they are never spoken to speak[00:04:53]
Every time you stand so you do not forget yourself[00:04:55]
Do not let one moment go by that doesn't remind you[00:04:58]
That your heart beats hundred thousand times a day[00:05:02]
And that they have gallons of blood making every one is an Oceans[00:05:04]
