We were dreaming all the dreams that kids dream

We stared down life at its most frightening

We defied the rain and lightning

Then we got older and we left our hometowns

We went to school and tried to hold a job down

But the future was such a letdown

Now I'm soaked to the bone, but I don't want to go home

Because there's a place I've gotta be

And you can't go back, you can never go back

At least that's what they all say to me

And I'll rage against the voices that tell me to find my place

I just can't settle down in some small town

And let my whole life go to waste

Because I'm restless. I know there's gotta be something else

And I can't just keep on lying to myself

On the docks, we'd count the constellations

We fell in love and lost our patience

To the Seventies rock station

Then I was on a rooftop in the summertime

Manhattan sunset skyline

And the warm taste of cheap red wine

We'd smoke cigarettes and flick our ash at the sun

Spend days like one-dollar bills

Each night was a brand-new shot at life

And I'm not sure that they ain't still

And I'll rage against the voices that tell me to find my place

And I'll take my time with a bottle of wine

And spit it right back in their faces

Because I'm restless. I know there's gotta be something else

And I can't just keep on lying to myself

And I'll rage against the voices that tell me to find my place

"Just work until you die and never ask why

Forget the things you're trying to chase."

And I'll rage against the voices that tell me to find my place

I've got faith in the night, the music's all right,

And there's some demons that I've got to face

Because I'm restless. I know there's gotta be something else

And I can't just keep on lying to myself
