Every friday night this old town comes to life and paints a neon scene
One by one they're linin up to fill their cups and cash in all their dreams
Well i'll stop by for just one round then i'm outta town to the place i need to be
And when i get up here i like to kick the headlights off so i can see
Sometimes it's hard to think with all the bright lights and the bars
So here i am six pack in hand just starin at the stars
And lay back on this faded hood
Fill my cup all systems good for launch
Well i pull up and burn it down
Get so high above this town i'm gone
And i wish that i could stay
Up here and far away
From gravity
Lookin down on that broken town
Full of what ifs and i could've beens
Same old story every day
That i just can't stand to hear again
See i been down there all my life
And somehow it's never felt like home
But up here in the stars i think i found a place
Where all my dreams belong
Someday i know i'm gonna find a way to blow this town
But until then i'll drive up here
So it don't pull me down
And just lay back on this faded hood
Fill my cup all systems good for launch
Well i pull up and burn it down
Get so high above this town i'm gone
And i wish that i could stay
Up here and far away
From gravity
Just lay back on this faded hood
Fill my cup all systems good for launch
I pull up and burn it down
Get so high above this town i'm gone
Nd i wish that i could stay
Up here and far away
From gravity
