Beyond the window, there's a temple fair
Fluorescent lights, they fill the humid air
I sit in silence, watch the people jive
So this is how it feels to be alive
Here comes the bass drum, feel it shake the earth
The kind of rhythm that makes you fall in love
Out on the dance floor sparks a young romance
But fate would have it, that they wouldn't stand a chance
The strays, the gods, I've seen a lot
They're out there screaming
We didn't grow up the same
Please don't judge me by the name of my neighborhood
And should our thoughts not align
You can politely decline, it's okay, we're good
It's okay, we're good
The strays, the gods, I've seen a lot
They're out there screaming
We didn't grow up the same
Please don't judge me by the name of my neighborhood
And should our thoughts not align
You can politely decline, it's okay, we're good
It's okay, we're good
Beyond the window, there's a temple fair
Fluorescent lights, they fill the humid air
I sit in silence, watch the people jive
So this is how it feels to be alive
