City Limits

If I had of known it
Then I would have shown it
My frustration with this old town
You can brush it under
But it always comes back
It's still following you around
And the city limits
Keep on getting bigger
Just when you thought you had made it out
And you're sick of waiting,
Lying on the pavement
Try'na get out of this old town
She confides that, she wants a little more
Are we living? Are we living?
She confides that, she wants a little more
Are we living? Or merely killing time
Looking at the ceiling
Try'na shake the feeling
That you just may have missed your time
Tearing up your ticket
Did you think you won it?
Make a killing in this old town
She confides that, she wants a little more
Are we living? Are we living?
She confides that, she wants a little more
Are we living? Or merely killing time
Ohhh feeling like I should get away
Feeling like I should get away
I'm sorry that you know…
I'm sorry that you knooow
Feeling like I should get away
Feeling like I should get away
I'm sorry that you know
I'm sorry that you know
If I had of known it
Then I would have shown it
My frustration with this old town
And the paint is fading
On the car that's waiting
Around the corner to take you out
Past the city limits
Past the point of living
Over the border of yesterday
Biting on the bullet
Do you really want it?
Dying for your chance to feel alive
Ohhh feeling like I should get away
Feeling like I should get away
I'm sorry that you know…
I'm sorry that you knooow
Feeling like I should get away
Feeling like I should get away
I'm sorry that you know
I'm sorry that you know
