hate this town

I take a cab down Main, just to pass your street
I'll be right on time, don't wait on me
I can't keep you safe, no I will let you down
These thoughts keep me awake
And I think I hate this town
And I stay awake all night
Cause I'd rather think than sleep
The things that keep me safe
They wound up making me bleed
So I built walls so tall, that they fell down on me
And since we'll never talk, I just write melodies

I see red more often than I'll ever vent
I've said some things to folks I love that I never meant
I want my cup to stay full, but I never pray for rain
It's like I'm begging for love
But terrified to take the pain that comes with it
So am I ever gonna get it?
I should stop right now
Cause I've been fighting for a minute, am I crazy
For believing there's more
All my cards are on the table
Face down, I'm on the floor, I got nothing left
I beat my chest and cry out, I need you God
He told me son, just lie down

I'll take a cab down Main, just to pass your street
I'll be right on time, don't wait on me
I can't keep you safe, no I will let you down
These thoughts keep me awake
And I think I hate this town
