lyrics

I like you and you like me.
Let’s get out of this dumpster.
Set it on fire before we leave.
Running away from our monsters.
Hit the highway, 85.
Remember not to look in the rearview.
If we smile, we might survive the demons that always play near you.

If we drive west fast enough, we’ll drive into a perpetual sunset (x2)

I like you and you like me,
But this house is haunted.
See a ghost before we leave,
Didn't stop to ask what he wanted.
Take to the woods,
Float the creek.
Don’t scream or they could hear you.
Change your name. Wash your scent.
Try to appear as the new you.

If we run east fast enough, we’ll forever be enveloped in darkness. (x2)

But we can’t run forever in these shoes.
We’ll always be followed by these ghouls
We don’t really know what we should do.
But if I like you and you like me,
And you can dance and you can sing
Then we could have a dance party for all the demons
We can’t see
Cause you brought your guitar and you brought your tambourine
I brought some Doritos
So we all can scream

If we dance here long enough, our demons will all become fun-sized.
If we dance here long enough, maybe we could all see the sunrise. (x2)

...

And so, that night, Will and Cecelia and all of the demons and the ghosts and ghouls had a dance party and...ate Doritos and hugged it out and...drafted and signed a peace treaty that lasts until this very day...
