lyrics

Find your luck on the dirty ground. Pick your sneakers up and see what's underneath.
All the people you thought were small well, they carry the beat. It flows into the street. Yeah that beat flows into me.

You're drifting down the interstate, testing how far it goes before you've gotta turn around.
Resting on the idea of fate never was enough for you to stay satisfied.
No you're never satisfied.

So start mending your seams. The ones you tore while eating all those dreams. You didn't know what they're for. You didn't know what they're for.

And if we're all stars breaking the routine that's fine, that's fine by me. 'Cause this constant motion is making me queasy. I need to break the calamity. I need some god given peace.

I know one day we'll all stand still frozen to this land, but that's your problem; you've got time to kill. So stop wasting mine. I said stop wasting all my time,

and open up to me. I'll be your hope when you can't breathe. I'll never let you choke. If you'd open up to me. I'd never let you choke when you can't breathe. I'll be your hope. If you'd open up to me.
