I Just can't believe What they've done to me We could never get free I just wanna be We're all together in the same boat I know you, you know me Baby, you know me Heading downstream till the levee gives in

I can't fake the daytime Found an entrance to escape into the dark Got false lights for the sun It's an artificial nocturne All that I believe I'm as fucked up as they say An outsider's escape for a broken heart I'm just as fucked up as they say

Love me leave me left me numb She's so bad she's good for me Draw your guns One night is all she needs Did you have your fun This girl knows ways you won't believe, oh Just being honest You can't tie me down Life is a short trip

And I just can't seem to break The shackles of the city boy blues Well, I got the city boy blues I got the city boy blues Fireflies and dogfights Runnin' hot in the heat Street noise, another bribe Things too hard to believe go head out My heart's in the

So don't be afraid Of the things you cannot change As the sun surely follows the rain I believe that you can't try to lead or control it 'Cause that's just life as we know it Life as we know it I know the road your on, ain't quite the way you planned it

And I thought I loved you then Now you're my whole world And now you're my whole life I just can't believe the way I feel about you, girl Like a river meets the sea, Stronger than it's ever been. We've come so far since that day I remember, trying not to

So suddenly I'm in love with a stranger I can't believe that she's mine Now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes I can't believe that she's mine, yeah And now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes You dress up just a little and I'm like,

Not like you hold me, hold me Baby, love never felt so good And I doubt if it ever could And the night is gonna be just fine Gotta fly, gotta see, can't believe Tell me, if you really love me It's in and out of my life, in out baby Baby, love never felt

It's an illusion Can't believe what you hear Don't believe what you read Here and gone in a day Not what it seems this American dream Just drifting away After all that we've seem A complete waste of time Just a nursery rhyme
