Fed Up

Nikki had the wildest of hearts
And a story that'll tear you apart
She's got her father's eyes and his credit card
Nikki had the wildest of hearts

Living in the town was a drag
The more you shrunk the more you sank
She said we may as well sleep in body bags
Living in the town was a drag

There was trouble ready to begin
Pressure rising up again
There was a bad idea at an ATM
There was trouble ready to begin

We climb to the roof to watch the drag race sunset
Beneath the power lines
It's car's first, it's dust tonight
Before the vampires come alive

And she's screaming

Wake up, is anyone else getting fed up?
Holding out for the wishing well
To pull us from the wreck
Stand up, stand up
We won't be the faded ones
Another silhouette
Is anyone else gettin' sick?

We were doused and ready to ignite
Out on the time bomb summer night
We were hooked by then to the other side
Waiting to ignite

There was trouble ready to begin
We were radiating heat again
There were some bad ideas at the ATM
There's no chance for recovering

And she's screaming

Wake up, is anyone else getting fed up?
Holding out for the wishing well
To pull us from the wreck
Stand up, stand up
We'll be the faded ones
Another silhouette
Is anyone else getting sick?

We were raised in the good old ways on the newest lines
Fast talk, cable boxed, fossilized
And Nicole said nights like this
There's not a pulse in this ghost town
Now the power has burned up
And the trapping got closed down

We climb to the roof to watch the drag race sunset
Beneath the power lines
It's car's first, it's dust tonight
Before the vampires come alive (x2)

And she's screaming

Wake up, is anyone else getting fed up?
Holding out for the wishing well
To pull us from the wreck
Stand up, stand up
We'll be the faded ones
Another silhouette
Is anyone else getting sick?
