Hold on until the feeling is so strong
Until the ground that you walk on is where you stand
This dream, it heals and it haunts me
It's tempted and taught me who I am
This town ain't yours, and this town ain't mine
We all come here with the light in our eyes
Some will burn out, some will burn bright
Some learn to fly, some will run for their lives
In this town, in this town
Strangers, we're nothing but strangers
Putting our hearts in danger for the song we sing
Oh, I've seen the devil inside me
But I won't let him guide me or take my wings
This town ain't yours, and this town ain't mine
We all come here with the light in our eyes
Some will burn out, some will burn bright
Some learn to fly, some will run for their lives
In this town, in this town
This town ain't yours, and it surely ain't mine
We all come here with the light in our eyes
Some will burn out, some will burn bright
Some learn to fly, some will run for their lives
In this town, in this town
In this town
Ooh, this town
In this town
