Nothing ever happens around here
Need to find our way out of these worn out surrounding
That we kicked around in
Back when we thought that
We'd do something good with our lives
Oh 'cause look at us now yeah
With the time running out
We're sat wasting away
Thinking back to the days
When we always said that we'd do so much more with our lives
Let's start today
In the cover of darkness we'll make our escape
'Cause we're wide awake tonight
As we leave this tire town behind
Ain't no time to waste tonight
'Cause they won't wait to be found
We'll make our getaway
We've still got dreams to chase
Brand new hopes, new horizons
No more clouds in our skies
Ain't no holding us down
In this place that we've found
We can see everything now when we opened our eyes
Such a beautiful sight
Brand new stories to write
And yeah we can be all that we want it to be
It's taking some time but I'm so glad that we've realized
It's never too late
Don't ever give up on those dreams that we made
'Cause we're wide awake tonight
As we leave this tire town behind
Ain't no time to waste tonight
'Cause they won't wait to be found
We'll make our getaway
And I know that it's hard
To be all that you are
Though the sky's maybe dark
We can reach for the star
'Cause we're wide awake tonight
If we leave this tired town behind
Ain't no time to waste tonight
'Cause they won't wait to be found
'Cause we're wide awake tonight
If we leave this tired town behind
Ain't no time to waste tonight
'Cause they won't wait to be found
We'll make our getaway
We've still got dreams to chase
We've still got dreams to chase, mmh, mmh
