The Closest Thing to Paradise

fuck this town, we're gonna hit the highway
go to where i wasn't born and raised
i've been living in this cell for far too long
these city lights will never phase me again

goodnight and goodbye
to all the nonbelievers
we're headed up towards the skylines
where we won't see our shadows

hell yeah, we're doing this
hell no, your words don't mean shit
we don't need you in our lives
so fuck the press, 'cause it's our time

and all along you thought you could cling onto us
and ride the coattails of our success
well, we're not impressed

hello to all you people, what the fuck is up?
we are new here, so hello to potential enemies and friends
we'll start a bar fight, get kicked out under the streetlights
and we'll drive our van toward the next place we'll call home

raise your glasses to the ones who pushed us down
say a toast to the haters, because we don't need them
we'll live in this moment for the rest of our lives
so don't say goodbye, because tonight we feel alive

fuck this town, we're gonna hit the highway
go to where i wasn't born and raised
i've been living in this cell for far too long

fuck this town, we're gonna hit the highway
go to where i wasn't born and raised
i've been living in this cell for far too long
so i'll say hello to all my potential friends

no, we won't say goodbye tonight
