Everybody Learns from Disaster

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
