Portland

The air tastes bitter I can't breathe it in The tension's thicker And suffocating Everybody knows everyone And their mothers pretend Not to notice Lose their focus The same old drive On broken concrete, "come and take it" flags On homes of the elite Everybody knows everyone And i hate it They try to play dumb When i feel numb I dream about living in portland Of packing my bags and just moving away I've heard that the life there is different It's better than still being stuck in the same I feel like i'll never belong here The wandering eyes show a price to be paid I'm thinking 'bout living in portland Don't come looking for me 'cuz honestly, i can't wait I can't wait Mmm Judgements pass Through gritted teeth Town council's finest Hold secrets beneath Everybody knows everyone Chose to stay in the lie Authority grows, and nobody knows How to live till they've already died I dream about living in portland Of packing my bags and just moving away I've heard that the life there is different It's better than still being stuck in the same I feel like i'll never belong here The wandering eyes show a price to be paid I'm thinking 'bout living in portland Don't come looking for me 'cuz honestly, When should i leave? Gotta close out the show Life can't be fair This town taught me so So i'm gonna go You can't tell me no. ​I dream about living in portland Of packing my bags and just moving away I've heard that the life there is different It's better than still being stuck in the same I feel like i'll never belong here The wandering eyes show a price to be paid I'm thinking 'bout living in portland Don't come looking for me 'cuz honestly, i can't wait Wait Oh i can't, oh i can't wait
