Hang It Up

(album: Young New England - 2013)

Hang it up, hang it up when you get home.
Lay it out, lay it out, like a map on the floor and
Tear away the edges, you can throw away your fears.

You took off like a shot in the dark to shine your light against the world.
Will you float out there forever or hang it up when you get home?

Hang it up, hang it up when you get home.
Lay it out, lay it out, like a map on the floor and
Tear away the present, you can throw away the past.
Slow it down, slow it down... wait up for me, kid.
Ride it out, ride it out... listen and forgive (slow it down, slow it down.)
Pain is temporary, you will love and you will live.
You will live.

You took off like a shot in the dark to shine your light against the world.
Will you float out there forever or hang it up when you get home?
I never got to say goodbye.
I watch my whole town live their lives
Wasted like a jacket left hanging at the bar.

Hang it up, hang it up when you get home.
Lay it out, lay it out like a map on the floor and
Tear away the present, you can throw away the past.
Slow it down, slow it down, wait up for me, kid.
Ride it out, ride it out... listen and forgive.
Pain is temporary, you will love and you will live.
You will love and you will live.
