This fucking disease is sweeping through our city’s streets
The street light halos are all I see
But their bloodshot eyes are just too bright: they’re burning in my back
I feel this whole town is preying on me
I gotta get away from here now
And I thought I was the one supposed to save you
But I can’t get through them no matter what I do
So I burn all of their bridges down
Get the hell out of this town
See them burning in the rear view mirror and drive away.
So I leave it behind, but I know I’ll be back around someday
To search the city, to try and find you
As I walk around I realize, I can’t turn back the clock
I count my losses, and start the engine.
I gotta get away from here now
When I thought I was the one supposed to save you
But I can’t get through them no matter what I do
So I burn all of their bridges down
Get the hell out of this town
See them burning in the rear view mirror and drive away.
When I thought I was the one supposed to save you
(so I just drive away from everything)
But I can’t get through them no matter what I do
(And follow highways till the ocean blue)
So I burn all of their bridges down
Get the fuck out of this town
See them burning in the rear view mirror and drive away.
