(Alright)
Just give a little twist, little turn
Keep on looking in the right direction, baby
I'm alive with the lights, with the lies
But I kept on building it, stack it up
Little architect you're crazy
White shirt, black dress tie
Dessed to the nine times, too many times
I couldn't wait to get out of the night life
It's a straight lie.
Just calm down
The trauma's on the inside
My line's been drawn
Just calm down
The trauma's on the inside
I don't want to be wasting time
Wasting time
Do you think that you'd call it crazy?
Contrary, and I shine amazing
Aging process called it quits
And the quicksand I trudged through
And everything I meant to
Say so, so said the young ones,
The dumb ones, and "stupid" you called it, but i called it flawless.
Played out and fade out,
I planned it. pan left and right, set the curtain.
Just calm down
The trauma's on the inside
My line's been drawn
Just calm down
The trauma's on the inside
I don't want to be wasting time
Wasting time
My ticket, my destination
Singing "Hallelujah"
Oh God, I think I've really changed
But she will love me all the same
My dear, it's all for you
And I will pay my dues
I owe you some eight years
It's coming to you
Don't say "calm down" and
"Don't quit this town"
I left 'cause I was bored
And what might be in store
Don't make a sound
'Cause I'll be 'round, oh
I wish you could buckle up and take a chance
You know I really do, really do
And you really, really do, oh
Just come along (come along)
Time's up, life's up, but I won't go
My ticket, my destination
Singing "Hallelujah"
Oh God, I think I've really changed
But she will love me all the same
My dear, it's all for you
And I will pay my dues
I owe you some eight years
It's coming to you
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
I've left town, and I won't come home
Ohio, I don't know Michigindiana, California
Where's home?
Why, oh why, if eyes collide
Why won't it feel the same, oh why oh?
Wonderstands
Why, oh why, if words are right,
Why won't it feel the same oh, why oh?
So now i won't play games
And I won't change.
My ticket, my destination
Singing "Hallelujah"
Oh God, I think I've really changed
But she will love me all the same
My dear, it's all for you
And I will pay my dues
I owe you some eight years
It's coming to you
My dream and now I'm getting out
I'm screaming "Hallelujah"
So today's the day my life will change
Gonna make it all the same
Darling it's all for you
And I will pay my dues.
I'm counting 4, 3, 2, 1.
