Under suburbia the energy flows Into the night slowly the city goes I know you're out there are thinking of me Take away my troubles make me see clearly Don't wanna look the future straight in the eye Time passes by, I just up and die Life plays a game that I know I can't win Deadlines, commitments they keep comin' back again. Runaway - Is there really any hope Runaway - my life is goin' up in smoke Apathy - Gotta get out of the city The days pass by like a rush hour day There's still no sign, I keep pluggin' away Pushed to the point of a breakdown again Kicked in and dented but somehow still standin' And in the end sometimes the Words come out wrong My mind is saying I've been gone too long. Life plays a game that I know I can't win Deadlines, commitments they keep comin' back again.
