Lyrics

Now...
The disco queen misses the high note of her third set of the night
She wipes her sweat to the ground of the second best bar in the worst part of town
She looks in pain
But you can't help to think
The way they'd look to you if you were in her place
You walk to the door as you think...

Out the window
The city's like a river
Always pressing onward
You try to ride the currents while you can
So you pull up to the blacktop now
And you let your last shot out
You fall to your knees and you scream so loud but no one seems to care

But I heard,
You weren't even born here you just showed up
One day
Hoping the city would show you the way

The dark of the city night
The skyline's lite up neon blue and white
It shows you why it is you try
So hard just for a chance

Out the window
The city's like a river
Always pressing onward
You try to ride the currents while you can
So you pull up to the blacktop now
And you let your last shot out
You fall to your knees and you scream so loud but no one seems to care

Only you
You're gonna make em notice you
All your life at your feet and the wind at your back
The city's inside you too.

Out the window
The city's like a river
Always pressing onward
You try to ride the currents while you can
So you pull up to the blacktop now
And you let your last shot out
You fall to your knees and you scream so loud but no one seems to care
