Rearview

As I walk these lonely streets

The ones we held so dear

My eyes seek new horizons

Where the air it tastes so clear

Now it's time to leave

The fear it bites down hard

What we fight for in this life

Is written in our scars

And don't tell me

There's no way of breaking clear

By morning we're five hundred miles from here

They got nothing left for me and you

And I only wanna see this city

Only wanna see this city

In my rearview

In my rearview

Well the city seemed so bright

The day we came to town

Now the lights are faded

And the blinds are drawn right down

So much for these hopes

So much for these dreams

So much for the life we chose

It's fraying at the seams

And don't tell me

There's no way of breaking clear

By morning we're five hundred miles from here

Got nothing left for me and you

And I only wanna see this city

Only wanna see this city

In my rearview as it fades

How I'm going to feel its claws in my skin

Tear you apart if you let it in

We won't

We won't

Let them in

Don't tell me

It just comes down to me and you

And I only wanna see this city

Only wanna see this city

Cos I know we're breaking clear

By morning we're five hundred miles from here

They got nothing left for me and you

And I only wanna see this city

I only wanna see this city
