City of July

It's a long long way from the boulevards
Where the streets are turning into roads
There's something out here in the nightfall
Telling me I can't go home

There's a fear out here in the heartland
Sometimes I just wanna be afraid
It's like a new frontier before my eyes
And it's daring me to throw it away

If you wanna leave this place
I can get us out of here tonight
If you wanna leave this place
How far to the city of July?

There's a blood bath over on the south side
And a concrete jungle in the east
Somebody pouring out tears where the innocent laugh
But we've still got something to believe

I don't wanna go out on the interstate
Cause the highways are traveled too much
It's like we're almost gone and we're almost young
It's a feeling but it can't be touched

If you wanna leave this place
I can get us out of here tonight
If you wanna leave this place
How far to the city of July?

We were born that summer night when we lost it all
Remember all that summertime how we knew that fall
Was a season for the runaways and we needed to get lost

It's a long long way from the boulevards
Where the streets are turning into roads
And there's something out here in the nightfall
Telling me we're almost home

If you wanna leave this place
I can get us out of here tonight
If you wanna leave this place
How far to the city? How far to the city?
How far to the city? How far to the city?
How far to the city of July?
