So this is what you meant When you said that you were spent And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit Right to the top Don't hold back Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain check
I don't ever wanna let you down I don't ever wanna leave this town 'Cause after all This city never sleeps at night
It's time to begin, isn't it? I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit I'm just the same as I was Now don't you understand That I'm never changing who I am
There's an old voice in my head That's holding me back Well tell her that I miss our little talks Soon it will be over And buried with our past We used to play outside When we were young And full of life and full of love
Some days I feel like I'm wrong when I am right (I don't ever wanna let you down) Your mind is playing tricks on you my dear (I don't ever wanna leave this town) Cause though the truth may vary This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore (Cause after all) This city never sleeps at night
Don't listen to a word I say. Hey! The screams all sound the same. Hey! Though the truth may vary This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore (That I'm never changing who I am)
It's time to begin, isn't it? I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit I'm just the same as I was Now don't you understand That I'm never changing who I am
This road never looked so lonely This house doesn't burn down slowly To ashes, to ashes
It's time to begin, isn't it? I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit I'm just the same as I was
Don't listen to a word I say. Hey! The screams all sound the same. Hey! Though the truth may vary This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
