Rooftops

What can ya say?
When you've got nothin left to talk about
Your mouth is moving, no one knows what's coming out
You're running out of things to say
I say just let it out
Before it settles down and mellows out
I wonder if the keeping up is keeping up
Or something else is sneaking up
And slowing down the extra energy you found
when you were running all over the city with me
Speeding, faster breathing,
till your knees are feeling week and it's
the weekend, but you're sleeping in again
And there's another chapter,
nothing seems to happen what's the matter?
Can't seem to remember what you're chasing after
But you got it a long time ago, it's time to go
Back into the time you let your mind control
Before you let them get inside like mind control
Back to when you could see clear
Before let the old man in the back of your head
Control the kid staring back in the mirror
(Let's go!)

And who said
New York City couldn't chill
Were blazing rooftops
And I'm singing
Well I don't care if you don't like me cause you don't know me
And you never will
So we're gonna drink that liquor and stay up later than we
ever have in our whole lives and we'll be fine tomorrow, yeah
(We'll be fine tomorrow)
And we're gonna blast the music cause we like it loud and
we can free the tension we can feel the sound so we know...

What can ya do?
When you've been hiding for so long
Inside these movies and these songs
But you can't act or sing along another second
You're resting from the day that felt so long
It felt so wrong because it is
Accept the message and reject it
Can't help but think about the times that you missed
While you were walking around these walls like they actually exist
Yet you persist
Clinched fist, and a mission in your vision
I was sitting, thinking, missing all the tips that you were giving
You said "the day that we stop
dreaming will be the day that we start dying"
So of course they don't see what we're
seeing cause in our heads we're flying
But I remember that man
He had something to show
It went straight over his head though and he couldn't grab hold
So it goes like you're told if that's the way you tell it to go
Throw your lessons out the window only use what you know

And who said
New York City couldn't chill
Were blazing rooftops
And I'm singing
Well I don't care if you don't like me cause you don't know me
And you never will
So we're gonna drink that liquor and stay up later than we
ever have in our whole lives and we'll be fine tomorrow, yeah
(We'll be fine tomorrow)
And we're gonna blast the music cause we like it loud and
we can free the tension we can feel the sound so we know...

(Yo what's the motto?)
Feel good music cause we feel good!

And who said West Coast living could only happen in California?
Last night
I took a look at the stars
And thought about how insignificant we really are and it's crazy
How much time we spend
Chasing dollars and possessions like it has no end
But we do
We won't be here soon
So do what you have to
Just make sure you've got someone to go back to
(Let's go)

And who said
New York City couldn't chill
Were blazing rooftops
And I'm singing
Well I don't care if you don't like me cause you don't know me
And you never will
So we're gonna drink that liquor and stay up later than we
ever have in our whole lives and we'll be fine tomorrow, yeah
(We'll be fine tomorrow)
And we're gonna blast the music cause we like it loud and
we can free the tension we can feel the sound so we know...

So this one's for the times that I know we'll miss
The years down the line we'll be doing this
And this very second in the present
won't forget it we'll remember we'll retell it
I can't wait to reminisce
