Drop And Run

I walk the cold streets of this town at night
led by the soft glow of a lonely street light
there's not much left around here
but I gotta take it slow
the bar stools scream
just stay for one more beer
it's hard to leave the people that I know
but I gotta bet the hell out of here
in this town no one knows who I am or who I will become
I've seen people come and people go now it's time for me to run
there's nothing left here for me our lives have just begun...
All they care is what I'm not,
and what I haven't got they try to drag me down
but I stagger to my feet plucking these strings
until the candle light burns out say what you will
and what you think but deep down I know you can't build
for a positive tomorrow on the ruins of yesterday
in this town no one knows who I am or who I will become
I've seen people come and people go now it's time for me to run
there's nothing left here for me our lives heave just begun!
