lyrics
i went down to the streets
dancing to the traffic beats
i put away my life of dreams
for a town that never goes to sleep
it’s better now, it seems,
than a girl that likes to creep up on me
can you hear the noise?
you like to blame it all on the boys
can you here me screaming,
just so i can feel anything
you used to lay next to me on the cold ground;
now the air dries your tears when you feel down
are you hurt when you think of someone else
lying next to me?
and does it hurt when i say,
“go and mess with someone else’s dreams”?
its better now, it seems,
now that i can finally be
anything
dancing to the traffic beats
i put away my life of dreams
for a town that never goes to sleep
it’s better now, it seems,
than a girl that likes to creep up on me
can you hear the noise?
you like to blame it all on the boys
can you here me screaming,
just so i can feel anything
you used to lay next to me on the cold ground;
now the air dries your tears when you feel down
are you hurt when you think of someone else
lying next to me?
and does it hurt when i say,
“go and mess with someone else’s dreams”?
its better now, it seems,
now that i can finally be
anything

Just think if Taking Back Sunday, Blink- 182, Modest Mouse, Brand New, Incubus, your local classic rock radio station, and Olivia Newton-John got together and had a love child…and then aborted it eight months into the pregnancy. ... more
