Ever know someone who just needed to get the fuck out of town? This song is written to that person.
Stop your hangin' around here You breathe this air like it's poison Why don't you make your own sound dear\ You're always just a prize that the boys won
Diggin' up the landscape for lovin' The shovel looks nice, but it don't work right All night don't keep 'em in sight now There's no longer a sign here That the world has survived outside these city walls But I swear if you listen you can hear it call
Like a seed in the ground Like you already found all of the love that you needed Before you were born Like a day in the sun Like the first time you won over the heart of a stranger
Self-destruction and escape They just aren't the same thing They just aren't the same thing You could never let me down But I wanna see you make it out of this town
Stop your hangin' around here No more breathing the poison Make your beautiful sound dear Don't ever be a prize that the boys won I would give you all that I have If I thought you would run like the city was under attack No time for looking back
Let me voice be a sign here That the world has survived outside these city walls And I swear I hear it call
