Nobody ever had a dream 'round here But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me Nobody ever pulls the seams 'round here But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me I've got this energy beneath my feet Like something underground's gonna come up and carry me I've got this sentimental heart that beats But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me Now, why do you waste my time? Is the answer to the question on your mind And I'm sick of all my judges So scared of what they'll find But I know that I can make it As long as somebody takes me home Every now and then Oh, have you ever seen the lights? Have you ever seen the lights? I took the shuttle on a shock wave ride Where people on the pen pulled a trigger for accolades I took a bullet, and I looked inside And it's running through my veins An American masquerade I still remember grandma Ditzy's wake I've never really known anybody to die before Red, white and blue upon a birthday cake And my brother - he was born on the fourth of the July, and that's all So why do you waste my time? Is the answer to the question on your mind And I'm sick of all my judges So scared of letting me shine But I know that I can make it As long as somebody takes me home Woo! (Every now and then) (Every now and then) You know I see London; I see Sam's Town Pulls my hand, and let's my hair down Rolls that world right off my shoulder I see London; I see Sam's Town now
Nobody ever had a dream 'round here
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me
Nobody ever pulls the seams 'round here
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me
I've got this energy beneath my feet
Like something underground's gonna come up and carry me
I've got this sentimental heart that beats
But I don't really mind that it's starting to get to me
Now, why do you waste my time?
Is the answer to the question on your mind
And I'm sick of all my judges
So scared of what they'll find
But I know that I can make it
As long as somebody takes me home
Every now and then
Oh, have you ever seen the lights?
Have you ever seen the lights?
I took the shuttle on a shock wave ride
Where people on the pen pulled a trigger for accolades
I took a bullet, and I looked inside
And it's running through my veins
An American masquerade
I still remember grandma Ditzy's wake
I've never really known anybody to die before
Red, white and blue upon a birthday cake
And my brother - he was born on the fourth of the July, and that's all
So why do you waste my time?
Is the answer to the question on your mind
And I'm sick of all my judges
So scared of letting me shine
But I know that I can make it
As long as somebody takes me home
Woo!
(Every now and then)
(Every now and then)
You know I see London; I see Sam's Town
Pulls my hand, and let's my hair down
Rolls that world right off my shoulder
I see London; I see Sam's Town now
