Moved to the city

I'm off and it shows

Everyone's pretty

And they're looking at my clothes

Is it just me? Is this how it goes?

Nobody tells you that it's war and it's play

Making amends with all your friends living far away

When they ask you"Why?" well you can only say

You say that

Something in your heart is

Telling you to be here

But you're so scared you'll fall apart"Am I supposed to be here?"

Look me in the eye

Garner a confession

I wanna do it right

Leave a good impression

And I'll put up the fight

I'll do it for attention

I wanna be the rise, the fall & the redemption

Almost everything

Oh this city plays me like a silver string

Bum-ba-da-dum

Have they all warned you that the spotlight will burn?

It'll play tricks on you, make you forget who you were

But it knows to count how many heads will turn

You think you're sure that

Something in your heart's still

Telling you to be here

Oh, but you're so scared to fall apart"Am I supposed to be here?"

Ohhhhh, oh oh!

Ohhhhhhh, ohhhhhh, ohhhh

Look it in the eye

Garner a confession

I wanna do it right

Leave a good impression

And I'll put up the fight

I'll do it for attention

I want to be the rise, the fall & the redemption

Almost everything

While the city plays you like a Silver String
