This Town

Walking through these empty streets

this town is dead

Rain is coming harder now upon your head

You can't get far enough away

What's it matter anyway

You never win

They handed you map to show you

where to go

Gave you everything but what you

need to know

You know your friends enough to say

Where they'll be on any day

Come what may

Surprise surprise

The morning sun is in your eyes

Get up throw that life away

Yesterday is yesterday

And lies they lied

They said you get what you deserve in life

But that's just not the way it seems

You end up living someone else's dreams

It's true

It follows you around

You don't have to love this town

Friday night beneath the bridge

just one more time

You wish that you could leave this

dirty town behind

There never seems to be a way

Hold on for another day

You will find

Surprise surprise

The sun that hits your lonely eyes

It wipes out every other day

Yesterday is yesterday

And lies they lied

It's not what you deserve

It's what you try and try and try again

Failing's just a step along the way

It's true

There's no one here for you

In time you wait and you will find

The ones who never let you down

You don't have to love this town
