lyrics

You'll never get out of Dallas like this
Stuck to blue like gum and glue
And clutching fear in your fists

Concrete and neon warm the cold emptiness
And the comforts are small, but you mistake them all
For some sort of bliss

And don't you hate the way
Your dreams decay
Into dim irrelevance?
And the city holds you tight
When you're alone in the night
 
From here to Oklahoma the highway
Cuts through like a knife
And the city bleeds over fields and trees
'Til the sky is bathed in white
 
And what can you say
It's been this way your whole life
And that foolish drug you mistook for love
Only stole your will to fight

But you were never bold
Now you're growing old
Still you're blinded by the light
"Don't believe what you can't see"
That's your whole philosophy
 
So go find your life... (x3)

You'll never get out of waiting like this
You can scream and swear
And pull your hair
But time won't budge an inch

You'd be better off trading that curse for a kiss
You're not the only one
Who's refused to run
From the edge of this abyss

But what you're going through
It is nothing new
Don't be afraid what you might miss
'Cause there's no such thing as meant to be
I think Dallas would agree
