It's dusk as all the shadows fall

The sun is laid to rest

At night the city comes to life

As the light dies in the west

Here we stand as some local band

Sets circles 'round the clock

Smoke so thick you need a lighthouse

So loud I can't hear myself talk

Someone whispered in my ear

"It's not like it was before"

I don't know what happened here

I guess we just got bored

The good old days

Well I suppose, I'm glad they're behind us now

The only thing worse than growing up

Is never quite learning how

Late at night we toss and we turn

Lay awake 'til dawn

We close our eyes as the sun comes up we're gone
