Past Tense Lyrics by Divided Minds

Guilty Pleasure

2019

[Verse 1]
You remind me of a place that I don't wanna go
It's a lonely road
When you're singing me to sleep
I hope you never wanna let me go
But I could sleep alone sometimes
And you could think of me at night
Do you think of me at night?
[Pre-Chorus]
Now you're so far away
And I can't take the blame
You took the best of me
[Chorus]
You're a 20-hour drive and I'm tacking on miles
While the radio's playing, trying to make me smile
You're a cloud in the sky 'bout to rain on my parade
While I've got the top down, trying to feel something
When the sun starts to rise, I feel it inside
Like finding the dark in the light
When it's so clear for me to be here, this doesn't make sense
I'm living in the past tense
[Verse 2
I don't wanna think about the time we could've had
You know, it never lasts
It's hard to face the fact that you and I had different plans
Like you could have guessed
But I could sleep alone sometimes
No matter how I feel inside
Do you think of me at night?
[Pre-Chorus]
Now you're so far away
And I can't take the blame
You took the best of me
[Chorus]
You're a 20-hour drive and I'm tacking on miles
While the radio's playing, trying to make me smile
You're a cloud in the sky 'bout to rain on my parade
While I've got the top down, trying to feel something
When the sun starts to rise, I feel it inside
Like finding the dark in the light
When it's so clear for me to be here, this doesn't make sense
I'm living in the past
[Bridge, x2]
Now it's such a clear view, clear view
I'll keep it in my rearview, rearview
There's nothing left since I'm through with you
No matter where this road takes me to
[Chorus]
You're a 20-hour drive and I'm tacking on miles
While the radio's playing, trying to make me smile
You're a cloud in the sky 'bout to rain on my parade
While I've got the top down, trying to feel something
When the sun starts to rise, I feel it inside
Like finding the dark in the light
When it's so clear for me to be here, this doesn't make sense
I'm living in the past tense
