There's a light inside of me And it's dimming day by day I long for the city streets Hear them call 'Cause I dream at night of getting out But I wake to these four walls And the faces all blend into one It's a face I'll never love But my mama says she thinks she knows what's best for me But the boy she thinks she knows is tearing at the seams And I know the love I crave's out there waiting for me I just wanna get down Get me out of this town There's a fire inside of me And it keeps the dark at bay But it's burning aimlessly With no goal 'Cause I want so much but I don't know
What it is I really want All I know is I won't find it here In a town where no one talks But my mama says she thinks she knows what's best for me But the boy she thinks she knows is tearing at the seams And I know the love I crave's out there waiting for me I just wanna get down Get me out of this town And my daddy says he thinks he knows what's wrong with me But the boy he thinks he knows is gone, why can't he see? And I know the love I crave's out there waiting for me I just wanna get down I just wanna be found I just wanna get down Get me out of this town
