The Weight of the Keys

[Intro]
[Verse]
Cardboard boxes on the floor
I don't live here anymore
Tape is sticking to my hands
Faded flyers for the bands
Scuffed up leather on my feet
Tired rhythm of the street
Wondering where the years all went
Counting every dollar spent
[Pre-Chorus]
The driveway's cracked and gray
I'm finally on my way
Heavy air and hollow sound
Lifting shadows off the ground
[Chorus]
Turn the key and let it burn
There’s a lesson left to learn
Past the city, past the pride
With the ghosts all tucked inside
It’s a long road to the light
Chasing down the edge of night
Starting over, starting clean
Somewhere that I've never been
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, let it burn
Yeah, let it burn
[Verse]
Rusted toolbox in the corner
Feeling like a silent mourner
Oil stains upon the concrete
Bittersweet and incomplete
Sunset hits the moving glass
Watch the golden minutes pass
Dreams I left upon the shelf
Finding pieces of myself
[Pre-Chorus]
The engine starts to hum
Thinking what I might become
No more looking in the rear
Leaving all the static here
[Chorus]
Turn the key and let it burn
There’s a lesson left to learn
Past the city, past the pride
With the ghosts all tucked inside
It’s a long road to the light
Chasing down the edge of night
Starting over, starting clean
Somewhere that I've never been
[Bridge]
Was I meant for something more?
Standing by the open door
The wind is calling out my name
Nothing's gonna feel the same
I’m not angry, I’m just wide awake
For every single choice I make
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Turn the key and let it burn
There’s a lesson left to learn
Past the city, past the pride
With the ghosts all tucked inside
It’s a long road to the light
Chasing down the edge of night
Starting over, starting clean
Somewhere that I've never been
[Post-Chorus]
Starting over
Starting clean
Yeah, we're moving on
Before the dawn
[Outro]
