There’s a comfort in the chaos, an exhausting kind of peace
There’s a ringing in our ears that’ll last at least a week
And they’ll wonder why we’re grinning, with our bodies sore and shot
‘Cause they don’t know about our secret, and it’s worth a fucking lot

‘Cause it’s easy feeling jaded, feeling older, feeling wasted
And it’s harder feeling stronger but we’re better with each other
And it’s cheesy but I know that when I fall you’ll help to pick me off the floor

And I still have that CD-R of ‘Reinventing Axl Rose’
That you burnt for me in high school way-too-many years ago
Now it’s scratched and I don’t have a CD player anymore
But I keep it for the sentiment ‘cause that’s what shelves are for

And it’s easy feeling jaded, feeling older, feeling wasted
And it’s harder feeling stronger but we’re better with each other
And it’s cheesy but I know that when I fall you’ll help to pick me off the floor

So bury me in Gainesville, close to State Road 24
When I’ve finally worn out everything that I was living for
I’ll stay close and you’ll stay magic as October never ends
‘Cause we held onto something bigger than they’ll ever understand

And it’s easy feeling jaded, feeling older, feeling wasted
And it’s harder feeling stronger but we’re better with each other
And it’s cheesy but I know that when I fall you’ll help to pick me off the floor
