Lyrics
You'll be the first flight out of Dallas
You'll be departing from Dallas on the first available flight.
You leave but never get away
Despite leaving, you can't escape.
From the color you swear that your life takes in this town
Your perception of life in this town is heavily influenced by its color or atmosphere.
Because scenery is just a shade
The view of the town is merely a representation or aspect, not the entirety of it.
You live in regret
You are burdened by feelings of remorse.
It hurts to know how much you'll miss
The pain of realizing how much you'll miss something.
I want to make it feel alright
The desire to comfort and soothe the situation.
Hold you through the dark tonight
To support and embrace you in times of darkness.
So what if now is all you have
Emphasizing the importance of the present moment.
Live as if you never knew
Live without the burden of past knowledge.
What it was to lose
Not understanding the pain of loss.
Honestly have you ever been honest with yourself
Questioning one's own honesty and self-awareness.
Or are you someone else's point of view
Wondering if your perspective is shaped by others' opinions.
You live in regret
Continued emphasis on the weight of regret.
It hurts to know how much you'll miss
The pain and sorrow from anticipating what you'll miss.
It's what you expect
Expecting difficulties or challenges that create emotional turmoil.
That leaves you such a mess
Anticipating a state of disarray due to these expectations.
One day you'll learn
Eventually realizing that true happiness isn't tied to a specific place.
No place will make you happier
Understanding that no location will inherently bring greater happiness.
Are you someone else's point of view
Reiteration of questioning if one's perspective is shaped by others' viewpoints.
Are you someone else's point of view
A repetition emphasizing the uncertainty of having one's own viewpoint or being influenced by others.
