lyrics

I move to fast to fall in love, so I stay young. I've learned to lose myself in a city of things I don't want. And it's only a matter of time until I go crazy, but at least I'm keeping my feet on the ground.

No. I'm not giving up. I'm at the speed of light, I don't know how to slow down. I found a knew way to sin. It takes a big room and bottles of gin.

I hope my eyes see better with time. The truth is right in front of me, I'll take what I can find. I'll keep close, the feelings that I hold. Without this it's emptiness. I'll take the last one home.

Take me back to record stores in Princeton and help me find the innocence I had. I still feel everything. It lives in the pictures and my memory.

I hope my eyes see better with time. The truth is right in front of me, I'll take what I can find. I'll keep close, the feelings that I hold. Without this it's emptiness. I'll take the last one home.

Cut the rope. Let it go. It's just a bad dream. You're waking up.
