Lyrics by Matt Kerstein

It’s what kind of escape you crave
It’s all you have and all that you gave,
What you spent and what you saved,
While wondering if you deserve to be saved.

It’s hiding behind the walls you’ve made,
It’s living down the truth you shade,
It’s making due, It’s getting by,
You can’t tell a thing by looking in my eyes.

It’s talking up just to be let down,
Recycled air in the same old town,
Praying when you don’t know yet if this,
Life was just a waste of your breath.

It’s when you forget the things you’ve tasted,
And you feel your time’s been wasted,
Like a virgin, just a teen,
All you know you need is a change of scene.

Yesterday was a long day,
To laugh at the world.

Well, I’ve got a girl, she’s a real romantic,
She sits and watches it all go by,
She knows not to listen to what they say,
‘Cause we’re gonna have it our own way.

We’re Amateur Lovers,
That’s the way we like it,
We’re only in it just for fun.
