Don't Let Me Cave In

You drove me all the way up here Cause you could tell that I was a mess I wasn't going to make it to dinner I shouldn't be calling again You drove me all the way back I circled the airport a hundred times And tried to hide the fact that I was crying "I came in on the red eye And that's why I look like this" There comes a day when you rectify Who you are with who you want to be with I can't make the two things coexist So don't let me cave in You drove me all the way up here Cause you could tell that I was a mess I wasn't going to make it to dinner I shouldn't be calling again You drove me all the way up here Then asked if we could stay in bed Cause you got work early tomorrow And I've got a plane to catch You drove me all the way back I spent last night getting Mexican Outside a Logan Square basement show with Evan Chicago looked desperate But maybe that was me I couldn't help thinking of watching the Sears Tower collapse as a kid I feel like I might do the same thing So don't let it happen to me No, don't let it happen to me You drove me all the way up here Cause you could tell that I was a mess I wasn't going to make it to dinner I shouldn't be calling again You drove me all the way up here Then asked if we could stay in bed Cause you got work early tomorrow And I've got a plane to catch You drove me all the way back I tried to make a life in the midwest But the Rust Belt keeps breaking promises I can't seem to find out where my footing is So don't let me cave in You drove me all the way up here Cause you could tell that I was a mess I wasn't going to make it to dinner I shouldn't be calling again You drove me all the way up here Then asked if we could stay in bed Cause you got work early tomorrow And I've got a plane to catch You drove me all the way back
