Big Bad City

Maybe it was magic
Like that photograph that someone took of us
Something I imagined
'Cause when everyone said run, I fell in love

I wanted to the fall, the fame
The diamond ring, the way my blood would rush
Like when we would drink too much
A crush on drugs, a worship of our luck

We got Jesus on the dash, it all goes fast
When you're kids in the big bad city
No time to crash, true romance
And the lights, they look so pretty

The world in our hands, make no plans
When you're so young and so shitty
Don't stand a chance, it never lasts
When you're kids in the big bad city

It was so electric, like a call to faith
How my pulse would race for you
I never expected the withdrawal to make
Every color turn to blue

I wanted the flying high, look in your eye
The cash, the crown, the luxe
The mission's a suicide, at least we tried
But never got enough

We got Jesus on the dash, it all goes fast
When you're kids in the big bad city
No time to crash, true romance
And the lights, they look so pretty

The world in our hands, make no plans
When you're so young and so shitty
Don't stand a chance, it never lasts
When you're kids in the big bad city

(In the big bad city)

(In the big bad city)

(In the big bad city)

We got Jesus on the dash, it all goes fast
When you're kids in the big bad city
No time to crash, true romance
And the lights, they look so pretty

The world in our hands, make no plans
When you're so young and so shitty
Don't stand a chance, it never lasts
When you're kids in the big bad city
