Run to the City

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Been here too long, you've seen it all, hey No room for all your whimsical dreams, hey Your quiet sky, a literal ceiling, hey You want the job, you've got to drive in, hey [Chorus] You better run to the city Run to the city, run to the city Better run to the city Run to the city, run to the city, let's go [Verse 2] Look at the real subway tiles, hey Look at your dream of jumping turnstiles, hey Look at us meet and fall in love, hey Check out you moving to the floor above, hey [Chorus] You better run to the city Run to the city, run to the city Gonna run to the city Run to the city, run to the city [Chorus] Go and run to the city Run to the city, run to the city Go and run to the city Run to the city, run to the city [Verse 3] The better part of all of us, hey Still run the street in boom and bust, hey The rhythm pumps, we're scraping by, hey The fetish comes, the demon flies, hey [Verse 4] You tell me, "I've earned the right, haven't I, to say What of the grind and what if I want space? And haven't we made it a brighter place?" The seeds and dust you leave behind, we chase [Chorus] You're gonna run from the city Run from the city, run from the city Gonna run from the city Run from the city, run from the city [Chorus] Gonna run from the city Run from the city, run from the city Gonna run from the city Run from the city, run from the city, let's run
