Lyrics
I'm gonna loose myself in the city
Walk down some streets
where no one knows my name
Yeah this small town life is sweet
But we only got one street
For a century and a half It still remains the same
There's still a hitching post beside the grocer's
Though the horses are dead all been turned to glue
I wanna stay out late at night
I wanna see some city sights
I'm ready for a fight but I'm needing something new
I wanna get lost
Get turned around
Loose my way
and not get found
Stare a stranger in the face
Make a few mistakes
Put some things behind me
Walk at a different pace
I wanna get lost
get turned around
Don't care if I
Ever get found
Leave the comfort of my home
Head out all alone
Forget where I have been Then
Throw away my phone
I 'll walk down some dark and scary allies
guess you'd say that I
That I 'm just tempting fate
Yeah my neighbors all were kind
But I need an uphill climb
leave what I call home Behind go do something great
Take an elevator up some skyscraper
Stand near the edge
gonna lean hard on the rail
Watch the people down below
Decide what I should know
Grab my dream and go OH I may fail oh I may fail
I wanna get lost
Get turned around
Drive my plow
In brand new ground
Use all the skills I lack
Toss away my map
Jump on a different road
Try hard to not look back
I wanna get lost
get turned around
Loose my way
never get found
Kiss the folks at home goodbye
Try hard not to cry
Run from every chance I get
To ask the question why,
do I wanna get lost
Why do I wanna get lost Why do I wanna get lost And
Leave the comfort of my home
Head out all alone
Stare a stranger in the face
make a few mistakes
Use all the skills I lack
Toss away my map
Kiss the folks at home goodbye
Try hard not to cry
I wanna get lost
