These Nights Will Define Me

I've done my part, don't stop to start. And now I could 
never ever feel the same. What's left behind? And did you 
ever think we'd see these signs?
Counting cars at midnight?
I can't feel the same. Some things never come back.

I've done my part, but you never seem to see me through 
this. Wake me up for every moment, take it back with every 
goodbye.
As you find the time to wait for me,I'm finding the time to
 find myself.
The songs still remind me, but these nights will define me,
 while you're waiting for me I'll be watching roads pass 
through this open window.
Looking for ways to divide this drive, and to find a phone 
line, to keep this all in line. How do you balance 
priorities, when every day is a weekend?

But at the week's end I'll be back on seventy-five. How do 
you balance backwards?
You'll never try your laughter thins the line.
You'll never risk simplicity, you'll never try your motives
 hide from time. It's not that easy, you might not see me.
