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