lyrics

I'm not going back.
To the life that held me down.
I refuse. I refuse.
Failure is no home of mine.
I refuse. I refuse.
Your American dream is my modern nightmare.

Another day, another dollar.
Another year, just another...
Another day, another dollar.
Another year, just another...
Step back.

My health, my security.
It's just another drink, it's just another night.
How could I set all that is right,
If the path I walk is blinded from sight?

If you ask me what it's worth, I'd probably tell you my life.
No matter the price, no matter the pain.
Once in a lifetime risk, not a chance to miss.
Cardinals will carry us home when we lose our heads in the clouds.
Cardinals will carry us home when we lose our heads in the clouds.
Heads in the clouds.

Time is something I'll never have enough of.
So forgive me, I'll just get to the point:
This isn't me, it never was. MIsery and regret became my best friend.
This isn't me, it never was. I found my faith in the gutter, below my feet.
Misery and regret. Misery and regret.
Misery and regret. Misery and regret.

I'm not a victim. (This isn't me.)
I'm not a failure. (I never was.)

It's this city, it's these streets.
Sometimes it feels like we're dragging our feet.
It's this city, it's these streets.
Don't let your life get stuck on repeat.
Get out.

We all got trapped behind the glass.
We all got trapped behind the glass.
Behind the glass.
