Nothing Town Lyrics:

Verse 1
Let’s make this complicated
Thinking is overrated
We’re busting out
Of this shitty little town
Green grass and colored lenses
Tear down these picket fences
Burn in our beds
While the city lies sleeping

Chorus:
Why oh why?
Are we starting up and going down?
My oh my
Just the two of us in Nothingtown
Our superhero play
We’ll leave this town today
Hold on tighter
With my lighter
Shining through

Verse 2:
These city streets are burning
Rose red your wheels are turning
Make me believe
Someday we could really leave
Blindfold a new direction
Stop asking better questions
Don’t figure out
That we’re never getting out

Repeat Chorus:

Why oh why?
Are we starting up and going down?
My oh my
Just the two of us in Nothingtown
Our superhero play
Our dreams get in the way
And I’ll row it if you steer it
I’ll yell until you hear it
Hold on tighter
With my lighter
Shining through

Still stuck in Nothingtown
Still stuck in Nothingtown
Come on let’s go
