lyrics

Back then she thought she knew who he was but she missed the point of who he was trying to.
You can drag me back home but you'll never cleanse the city, from me.
The dirt the streets, somehow collected, and then year and year it's infected.
The time's been kept the race been run, I hope to never come undone.

I saw the redline, I pulled back.
Treated her right but nevermind that.
Out running wild and free.
I'm the city boy you can't keep up with me.
I'm the city boy you can't, keep up with me.
I'm the city boy you can't, I'm the city boy you can't.

I got this backwards, flipped right around. Got no connection living underground.
I take a look around, all my friends are settling down but I'll run wild,
I won't slow down, 'cause I know the one to walk with, I know the way and how.

The dirt the streets, somehow collected, and then year and year it's infected.
The time's been kept the race been run, I hope to never come undone.

I keep living past the next time that I should have died,
and I won't stop now no, and I will survive, this fuckin' night.
