He said, listen my friend,
don't you know how to bend
And there are people out there
Cause no one took care of them either
On the safest streets at night
Still far from my friend's door
Taking shortcuts now and then again
Makes me wonder if I'll be okay
Oh, I want to leave the city,
but I don't want to live on the phone.
And I want to take a trip on a spaceship,
but don't take me further
12 years old when I fell from a tree
The feeling I got has puzzled me a lot
It's like everything made sense
All this time I've been playing the part
of someone with talent for making art.
If I knew what I was doing,
I could tell you who I am.
I would stand up and say I'm a man.
On the longest search in life,
so close to why I'm here.
Taking shortcuts only once a while
Makes me won der if I'll be okay
Oh, I want to leave the city
But I don't want to live on the floor
And I want to take a trip on a spaceship
But don't take me further than I am
My strongest search for you,
Taking shortcuts maybe once a year
Makes me wonder if I'll be okay
But I don't want to live on the floor
And I want to take a trip on a spaceship
But don't take me further than that
Oh, you want to leave this city
But you don't want to live on the floor
And you want to stay young and pretty
But you don't want to take it to your grave
