Nothing Left to Prove

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You leave your jacket on the chair Like you might come back for it The diner clock skips every other minute You watch the door, then quit [Pre-Chorus] You say the town has learned your name But every street still feels the same [Chorus] You’ve got that cool, don’t-care look Like you’ve already read the last page But I see your hand shake when you turn the key And your foot tap holes in the stage You don’t have to win this room You don’t have to play it smooth Come on, let the whole thing come unglued You’ve got nothing left to prove [Verse 2] The jukebox eats your dollar bill The cook is closing up at ten You draw a map across the napkin Then fold it up again [Pre-Chorus] You say the highway calls you out But you keep circling this block [Chorus] You’ve got that cool, don’t-care look Like you’ve already read the last page But I see your hand shake when you turn the key And your foot tap holes in the stage You don’t have to win this room You don’t have to play it smooth Come on, let the whole thing come unglued You’ve got nothing left to prove [Bridge] Say it plain, say it badly Say the thing you came to say We can leave the dishes stacked up We can miss the last train [Chorus] You’ve got that cool, don’t-care look But you’re staying for one more page Let your hands shake, let the old plans break Let the room remember your name You don’t have to win this room You don’t have to play it smooth Come on, let the whole thing come unglued You’ve got nothing left to prove [Outro] Nothing left to prove Nothing left to prove
