­paradigm shift

[Intro]
We didn’t know what we were getting into
We didn’t know what we were getting into
We didn’t know what we were getting into
We didn’t… yeah

[Verse 1]
Paradigm shift
From the second we hugged, even before we kissed
Life as a loner wasn’t doing it for me
So I dove headfirst and found you in the sea
A new place for you, a new life for me
Across miles of road until we hit Tennessee
Hotel room to ourselves and the world in front of us
For three months at least, it seemed that we were free

[Hook]
Life didn’t seem so bad when you were around
If I owned the key to your heart, it didn’t matter if I owned the town
And I know that this isn’t the music you normally vibe to

[Verse 2]
2am, can’t sleep, we hit the Waffle House
Pinch myself, not a dream, breathing in the south
Meeting family in the morning, bowling in the dusk
Hickeys left upon the neck, unafraid of being judged
Fresh breath of air in every way from the people to the place
To the state of mind that now knows happiness and home, hold up
To the state of mind whose family can see they’re both, hold up
To the state of mind that’s witnessed love winning the race at last
Ascend the mountain, see the world from above
Left that cave, heart restored inside the dove
But when you’re at the top, there’s no more going up
Honeymoon phase, called when the love was still there

[Hook]
Life didn’t seem so bad when you were around
If I owned the key to your heart, it didn’t matter if I owned the town
And I know that this isn’t the music you normally vibe to
But at least I know I did my best

[Bridge]
Sometimes I wonder if you think about the times we had
Sometimes I wonder if you miss me when you lie in bed
Sometimes I think about how everything was so perfect
Sometimes I think about how everything went to shit
So quick, so quick, so quickly
We didn’t know what we were getting into
We didn’t know what we were getting into
We didn’t know what we were getting into
We didn’t know what we were getting into

[Hook]
Life didn’t seem so bad when you were around
If I owned the key to your heart, it didn’t matter if I owned the town
And I know that this isn’t the music you normally vibe to
But at least I know I did my best
