We were blasphemers We were self crowned kings of this town one time Creeping out windows and slipping through doors Breathe in our night Do You remember the time we snuck up to the roof of the all night restaurant You were the brightest star that night And if I only knew then what I know now We put this town on the map Then we burned it to the ground We built a monument Then we watched it all fall down You got out of town I was anchored down headed nowhere in a hurry The faces are similar, some of them gone I'm not worried About mistakes that I made, it's better you didn't stay I get what's coming around and it's on its way The star is burning out tonight And I won't be there to catch you when you fall These words are painted on the streets They're the cracks in the sidewalks under your feet Try as you might to claim you don't see It won't change a thing
2.
There's been a mark up on all the merchandise And there's a trainwreck behind your pretty eyes And I can tell just by the way you look at me It doesn't matter and we'll be fine You destroy me with every second I spend waiting for acknowledgement Your hand in mine is a ticking time bomb that's waiting to explode Suck it up and let me down This is the only chance we have to make it out One way or another this building is coming down And I'm not sticking around We used to stand up so tall and proud against a crumbling horizon Your hand in mine is a ticking time bomb that's waiting to explode What Am I going to do with all these dreams of you
3.
With the sun at our backs We'll head westward this morning Guilty as sinners We're rich men with nothing All along This is where we belong Crooked lines are hard to follow On such a straight and narrow path The miles are paved with empty bottles By those I know no better than The kids just want to have a good time They just want to live for tonight So give them hell This is our time, we'll shine We cannot be divided Nights like these are hard to come by There's nowhere else I'd rather be A dim lamp shines on you so brightly That it isn't hard to see This is where we belong tonight We're the kings and queens of it all This is where we belong tonight And we will take it all I'm hanging on your every word I'll scream until my voice is hoarse We're not going home Because we're already home

Almost 03:34
I spent the afternoon spinning 45s with you I spin the hours away I'll spin the days away Act like you never met me as the city stares Suffice it to say this is goodbye I'm leaving on the last train out I'm screaming suburbia I'm coming home relunctantly These quiet streets are what I need How's this for sentiment Sooner or later you'll regret Keeping them all at arm's length Pushing them all away Act like you never met me as the city stares Suffice it to say this is goodbye
5.
This isn't the first time But God I hope it's the last time You're a drug I wish I never took I would take this love back if I could As the ink dries on this letter The room spins 33 more rounds You never once changed for the better As color fades out of this town I can't breathe when you're sitting right beside me And your heart beats worlds away We ain't supposed to bleed for nothing If we both believe in something But you may never sing those same love songs again This isn't the first time But God I hope it's the last time Every corner has a memory Every regret is a part of me As the ink dries on this letter The room spins 33 more rounds You never once changed for the better As color fades out of this town It's dimmer than the lights out on North Avenue Baby can you find your way back home Maybe then I'll see you dancing But I'll keep my hopes down on the floor
