Would You Rather

(album: A Series Of Unfortunate Events - 2019)

When did these streetlights all turn into spotlights
Made for lighting up that pretty face
You might fuck around and catch a case
And since when is my hometown straight out of a movie
When you wish you still knew me but you stuck in place
I can teach you how to keep the pace

It's been years (since I've seen you)
Down in tears (when I leave you)
All your fears (were all see through)
Now it's clear that I need you
I know that you got my photo hidden in your locket
Your photo's still inside the wallet in my pocket
We could run away, they shouldn't hold you hostage
(Know I can love you out of all the worlds watching)

Would you rather end up broke or shattered
I'm not playing it safe
But would you trade it for a save
Baby take off [?] chasing after
[?]
We'll make your heart race

Since when did the stars dancing up in the night sky
The suns on the bright side, they give you the limelight
You make me feel like a night drive
When it's something simple these mains streets they turn into a ballroom
The cast, they call you front and center stage
I'm excited to watch you do great

Because you deserve more (than what you settle for)
Done more than a few things (you deserve a medal for)
Spread your wings (it's just a metaphor)
Finer things (is what you're headed for)
Don't let me down (just let me pick you up)
When you break down (then I can fix you up)
And if your drown (I'll always lift you up)
I made a promise I won't give you up

Would you rather end up broke or shattered
I'm not playing it safe
But would you trade it for a save
Baby take off [?] chasing after
[?]
We'll make your heart race
