Overlook the city
Everything is so pretty
Until you get up close
See the landfill for the trash
It's good to get away
From your everyday
Unless your everyday
Is when you get away
From all the bullshit that you live
From all the shitty air you breathe
You turn the other way
Then you see the stage
The vast emptiness
Everyone is behind you
You find you're all alone
Sitting in plain view
No one acknowledges
The accomplishment of your departure
From all the bullshit that you live
From all the shitty air
And you find that it's fine to forget
Everything that you know just for a bit
And you find that it's fine to lament
Everyone in the past that you're trying to forget
So watch each step
One slip and you could fall
You might regret
Being alive at all
Never forget
You took the first step to begin with
You're the one looking back
Never bracing for your fall
