a bad dream from an old life

A never ending cadence
A decade to the year
You love it or you hate it
But it's all, it's all that keeps you here

And how long can the pavement
Bear all of my doubt
I don't know who I'd be without it
But it's time, it's time I figured out

I wanna wake up with the sunrise
And howl at the moonlight
I wanna swim out to the deep tide
And breathe like the first time
I wanna shake off this city
Like a bad dream from an old life
Like a bad dream from an old life

It took me half a life to
See it full and clear
If I stay where I'm supposed to
Then I'm never getting out here

So how much will this pavement
Hold before it cracks
I know that I can't change it
So I'm never never going back
I wanna wake up with the sunrise
And howl at the moonlight
I wanna swim out to the deep tide
And breathe like the first time
I wanna shake off this city
Like a bad dream from an old life
Like a bad dream from an old life
