Intro
Verse 1
Right about the time the streetlight came on
parked on the lawn threw away the keys
1987 fender s busted, engine rusted
Tires down on their knees
Getting stared down by a blank wall
Another nightfall falling down around me
Lately it s all the same old story
Chorus
Gotta get away so sick of standing still
Leaving here to stay gonna find another thrill
To blow me away, trade in a memory
For everything that you ll never be
Verse 2
Everybody s hot in California
I gotta warn ya you re never gonna want to leave
Cause all the stars got a scar to show you
After a drink or two, tucked up their sleeve
Everybody s not what everybody says
Get into my bed and outta my dreams
Lately it s all the same old story
Chorus
Gotta get away so sick of standing still
Leaving here to stay gonna find another thrill
To blow me away, trade in a memory
For everything that
Bridge
You ll never be the enemy,
It never meant that much to me
Here is now and then is how
The first and last have come to pass
Lately, it s the same old story
Lately, it s the same old story
Verse 3
Getting stared down, by a blank wall
Another nightfall falling down around me
Chorus
