She's asleep in the backseat
Looking peaceful enough to me
But she's wakin' up inside a dream
Full of screeching tires and fire
She's asleep in the backseat
Looking peaceful enough to me
But she's wakin' up inside a dream
Full of screeching tires and fire
We're comin' back from where no one lives
Pretty much just veterans
When I pointed out where the North Star is
She called me a fuckin' liar
[Chorus]
And Emily (Emily), I'm sorry, I just
Make it up as I go along
Yet, I can feel myself becoming (I can feel myself)
Someone only you could want
[Verse 2]
Headed straight for the concrete
In a nightmare screaming
Now I'm wide awake, spiraling
And you don't wanna talk
Just take me back to Montreal
I'll get a real job, you'll go back to school
We can burn out in the freezing cold
And just get lost
[Chorus]
Emily (Emily), I'm sorry, baby
You know how I get when I'm wrong (You know how I get)
And I can feel myself becoming (I can feel myself)
Somebody I'm not, I'm not, so
Emily (Emily), forgive me, can we
Make it up as we go along?
I'm twenty-seven and I don't know who I am (Don't know who I am)
But I know what I want
[Outro]
Emily, I'm sorry
Emily, I'm sorry
I'm sorry
Natulog na siya sa backseat
Naghahanap ng sapat na mapayapa sa akin
Ngunit siya ay wakin 'sa loob ng isang panaginip
Puno ng mga gulong ng screeching at apoy
Kami ay bumalik mula sa kung saan walang nakatira
Medyo mga beterano lamang
Kapag itinuro ko kung nasaan ang North Star
Tinawag niya akong sinungaling
[Koro]
At si Emily (Emily), pasensya na, ako lang
Gumawa ito habang sumasabay ako
Gayunpaman, naramdaman ko ang aking sarili na nagiging (naramdaman ko ang aking sarili)
Isang tao lamang ang gusto mo
[Taludtod 2]
Tumungo nang diretso para sa kongkreto
Sa isang bangungot na sumisigaw
Ngayon ay gising na ako, spiraling
At ayaw mong makipag -usap
Dalhin mo lang ako sa Montréal
Makakakuha ako ng isang tunay na trabaho, babalik ka sa paaralan
Maaari tayong masunog sa malamig na malamig
At mawala lang
[Koro]
Emily (Emily), pasensya na, baby
Alam mo kung paano ako makukuha kapag mali ako (alam mo kung paano ako makukuha)
At naramdaman ko ang aking sarili na nagiging (naramdaman ko ang aking sarili)
Isang tao hindi ako, hindi ako, ganoon
Emily (Emily), patawarin mo ako, maaari ba nating
Gumawa ito habang sumasabay tayo?
Dalawampu't pito ako at hindi ko alam kung sino ako (hindi ko alam kung sino ako)
Ngunit alam ko ang gusto ko
[Outro]
Emily, pasensya na
Emily, pasensya na
patawad
