Lyrics
The city sun in relentless
It?ll burn holes into souls
All these ideas pounding the pavement
Begging for love
Fighting for gold
[CHORUS:]
And we forget why we came here
Following dreams we can?t seem to catch
Climb up and out of all of these tangles
Up to the overpass
Stand on the overpass
I could feel my home lifting up off the runway
And into the sky
Leaving me her in this confusion
Learning to sing my own lullaby
[CHORUS]
And you stand up tall on the concrete mountain
You think you could fall like anyone else
But now you can see where you came from
and you can breathe like before
[CHORUS:]
...and you look from the overpass
when you?re up on the overpass
