lyrics

(Everyone) keeps telling me
I won't just settle down and fade away
But I've never burned this bright
How can I live if I'm dying inside
You said you always said life's like the movies
Where a solid heart of gold
Can keep me from my own disaster

I always keep my head up in the clouds
The view is always better from the top

It's like every word I say
Makes you want to replay
All of the perfect dreams you've had
We're not here to let our walls fall down
I'm doing my best someday I'll run this town

(What have they done) to me
It's like everyone surrounding me is taking over
Nothing can bring us down
No one will stop us
You think how can you think our days are numbered
Your head is drowning in those lies
Listen to yourself don't fall into line

I always keep my eyes focused on you
I know I'll never forget these days

I've had so much doubt that's tried to keep me tied down
I've had so much doubt but it won't keep me tied down
I wrote this song for all my friends
That let me down once again
Where were you when I needed so much
I hope this means something to you
These songs mean everything to me
