[Verse 1]
All of the towers and street lights burn out in the depth of of the detours, the head of the mouth
"How many years 'til you're out of this place?"
I have been gone for a long time
[Verse 2]
There's linebackers lying back, pirouette plays in the heart of the beast and the edge of LA
'Reluctant' and 'doctor' are not the best words to use when you talk about futures
[Chorus]
Sorority row
It's stuck in this small time
This isn't home
Yeah, we're only staying here, I know
I have to make it back to zero five
[Verse 3]
All of the people around are a part of this gridlock construction through dangerous hearts
I have been done, and I have been new
I will not wait for forgiveness
[Verse 4]
With all of the darkness enveloping light 'til we fall apart flat at the end of the night
If I wanted a skirt that said 'bad girl' in gold I wouldn't know where to buy it
[Repeat Chorus]
[Bridge]
Five more times to the middle of the road
I was younger in the morning, now I've never been this old
I won't take for granted but if I don't take at all
There will be trouble when we get back 'cause the streets are closing down tonight
All the streets are closing down tonight
[Repeat Chorus]
