Arcade

We'd been driving in circles just trying to learn our way around You said "isn't this perfect, already lost in our new town" Half asleep in the passenger seat with the window up Half a dream being thrown away like an old paper cup You know they built a casino right at the spot where we won the war Hell, what do we know, maybe a little luck was worth fighting for I hate to say it, but I'd take my chances, watch 'em roll away I'd hate to admit what I'd be ready to do to get us back to better days It's quiet in this place we made Waiting underneath the arcade Gotta believe we're not the only ones Everyone's a stranger So do your best to show them where you're from Got my mind wide open Hoping for those better days to come Something in the water, I could never learn to imitate it But now we don't bother knowing who is new and who is native There's a spot we found around the back where they'll just let you be There's a place that we learned to call home, cause it's got you and it's got me It's quiet in this place we made Waiting underneath the arcade At least by now we've seen it all before When everyone's a stranger There's no point in changing anymore Got my eyes wide open But I can't remember what I'm looking for Sometimes I hear a whisper from an old familiar song Words I can't remember but a feeling that I'm hanging on Something that we found turned into a calling But roots into the ground couldn't keep us from falling You can only see the half of it, it's deeper than the light goes But I'd bring so much back from it, and shake it till it echoes Echoes come reflecting back again off our mistakes That's when you hear the whisper turn into a hurricane It turns into a hurricane It turns into a hurricane It turns into a hurricane It turns into a hurricane It turns into a hurricane It turns into a hurricane It turns into a hurricane A hurricane A hurricane A hurricane
