Everybody Learns From Disaster - Dashboard Confessional

We went rolling up the coast

Then there was no more coast to wander

We tried every different road

Just to see which took us further

We were living on the run

Though there was no one chasing after

We were looking out for love

And we were flirting with disaster

While the world fades out

We stayed in the sun too long

Suffered a terrible burn

Now everybody learns from disaster

We stayed on the run too long

Hoping we’d never return

Now everybody learns from disaster

We watched the sun burn down into cinders

We turned out into the plains

And turned in when we got tired

We slept two across the bench

And we fit three under the covers

We had just enough cash left

To top the tank and fill the cooler

And we lit the van with dreams

After the sun burned into cinders

And the world fades out

We stayed in the sun too long

Suffered a terrible burn

Now everybody learns from disaster

We stayed on the run too long

Hoping we’d never return

Now everybody learns from disaster

We watched the sun burn down

We watched the sun burn down

We watched the sun burn down into cinders, into cinders

We watched the sun burn down

We watched the sun burn down into cinders

We stayed in the sun too long

Suffered a terrible burn

Now everybody learns from disaster

We watched the sun burn down

We watched the sun burn down into cinders, into cinders

We watched the sun burn down

We watched the sun burn down into cinders
