Verse 1:
Took a drive into the sprawl
To find the house
where we used to stay in
Couldn't read the
number in the dark
You said let's save
it for another day
Verse 2:
Took a drive into the sprawl
To find the places
we used to play
It was the loneliest
day of my life
You're talking at me but
I'm still far away
Verse 3:
Let's take a drive through the sprawl
Through these towns they built to change
Then you said the emotions are dead
It's no wonder that you feel so strange
Verse 4:
Cops showing their lights
on the reflectors of our bikes
Said do you kids
know what time it is?
Well sir it's the first time
I've felt like something is mine
Like I have something to give
Verse 5:
The last defender of the sprawl
Said well where do you kids live?
Well sir if you only knew
what the answer is worth
Been searching every
Ab G(hold)
corner of the earth
