Intro (0:00-0:20):
Verse (0:20-0:40):
Riding my bike under the Mass Ave. Bridge and I'm staring at the cityscape.
Seems like forever since we started this adventure and the days are
getting shorter again. And so we ride, ride right over the wate, though
some days I think I'd rather jump in. Below the buildings, they surround me
like a blanket, and I wonder what is keeping me here.
Post-Verse (0:40-1:00)
What's keeping me here? What's keeping me here?
Verse (1:00-1:20):
Looking out and looking up for an answer but still nobody's making any
sense. Finding quiet in the city's like a treasure and I never would have
expected it here. They say eight stars are all you get, and I don't want to
make the same mistake. Sometimes I wish this all would burn to the
ground and we'd have to start all over again.
Outro (1:20-1:39):
We'd have to start all over again. We'd have to start all over again.
We'd have to start all over again.
