There's something in the air
this time
the streets are whispering
my name
Still I don't know what to do
what to do with myself
I've been here before so why
am I still nervous and waiting
for things to happen
It's the same old story
over and over again
just different in circumstances
But tonight this heart
plays a different beat
than it did before the days
grew shorter and had
memories to reclaim
Those times are
finally growing old
and won't ever wear me down
The streets are calling me out
and for this I'm sure
the pavement won't ever
let me rest
It won't ever let me rest before
it drags me down
pulls me under
and never lets me go
If you just listen close enough
you can hear this heart beating
inside this hollow chest
under the color in this skin
behind these fading eyes
Go on read me like a book
I won't try to
wash the words away
Turn the pages
there's plenty of stories
waiting to be
written by these hands
If you just listen close enough
you can hear this heart beating
inside this hollow chest
under the color in this skin
behind these fading eyes
But tonight this heart
plays a different beat
than it did before the days
grew shorter and had
memories to reclaim
Those times are
finally growing old
and won't ever wear me down
The streets are calling me out
and for this I'm sure
the pavement won't ever
let me rest
It won't ever let me rest before
it drags me down
pulls me under
and never lets me go
