A short fable about enduring life’s hard times, finding true love, and riding away into a starry sunset. Like Knox tells the story of a young couple in love, facing their struggles together, and knowing that they are not defined by their problems, nor by temporary struggles. As the instrumentation and vocals grow to an electrifying build, the couple decide to leave the bland monotony of their hellish existence for a chance to drive off into the sunset and start anew. A new life in a different town awaits them.

-
We were walking, on leads
marching to the beats
of what we’re told
growing up, ain’t the same
as growing old
We were, the same people
we swore we’d never be
God knows, its hard, to just pack up and go
when dreams are out of sight
they’re out of mind you know
it was never you, or ever me
this town just ain’t the one we need
And hey, now, look around
the old place is falling, down, down
who cares what names we call it, now
And baby, we can be free
you and me
if we don’t go oh
We'll never know
We could ride away
grab 3 bags and leave these devil streets
find what’s golden
fix this love that shouldn’t be broken
And drive away
down sunset roads to sunset city
live our lives
for some stories to tell
The world may say, we’re falling out of line
but these bones they say, this feeling’s fine
And all the way, we’ve seen it all the time
when you’re running out of dreams, here
all you gotta do is drive
and drive
And drive away
grab 3 bags and leave this devil streets
find what’s golden
fix this love that shouldn’t be broken
And drive away
down sunset roads to Sunset City
live our lives
for some stories to tell
Riding on when life got down
with leaps of faith
we seized the day
Now these walls are falling
colours coming back
theres magic in the wind
That freedom taste,
yeah
and the stars say
You’ll do okay, yeah
You can start all over, again
Start all over, again
Start all over
start all over, again
Start all over
you can start all over
Again, again....
You can start all over
start all over
