Intro: Eb
Verse 1:
They heard me singing and
they told me to stop
Quit these pretentious
things and just punch the clock
These days my life I
feel it has no purpose
But late at night the feelings
swim to the surface
Verse 2:
Cause on the surface the
city lights shine
They're calling at me
come and find your kind
Sometimes I wonder if
the World's so small
That we can never get
away from the sprawl
Chorus:
Living in the sprawl
Dead shopping malls rise
like mountains beyond mountains
And there's no end in sight
I need the darkness someone
please cut the lights
Post Chorus: Eb--
Verse 3:
We rode our bikes
to the nearest park
Sat under the swings
and kissed in the dark
We shield our eyes
from the police lights
We run away but
we don't know why
Verse 4:
On the black river
the city lights shine
They're screaming at us
we don't need your kind
Sometimes I wonder if
the world's so small
That we can never get
away from the sprawl
(Repeat Chorus)

Verse 5:
They heard me singing and
they told me to stop
Quit these pretentious
things and just punch the clock
