This city's choking me but all I do is Sit here quietly I cannot see the sun and Nobody cares any more I'm suffocating in this town To think I grew up here just gets me down I've never seen the stars and Everyone has given up Our achievements will amount to nothing, we'll cast all our fears out to sea; We'll stand bare and alone in just our flesh, forget all we wished to be These are our dying days of youth These are the kids we will have been We won't just sit back whilst you lie We won't forget the things we've seen
