Lyrics

[00:22.880] Let's go for a drive, see the town tonight
[00:28.800] There's nothing to do but I don't mind when I'm with you
[00:40.900] This town's so strange they built it to change
[00:46.850] And while we sleep we know the streets get rearranged
[00:53.030] My old friends, we were so different then
[00:58.930] Before your war against the suburbs began
[01:05.140] Before it began
[01:13.780] Now the music divides us into tribes
[01:20.150] You grew your hair so I'll grew mine
[01:25.540] You said the past won't rest
[01:28.650] Until we jump the fence and leave it behind
[01:35.220] My old friends, I can remember when
[01:41.040] You cut your hair, I never saw you again
[01:46.860] Now the cities we live in could be distant stars
[01:52.920] And I searched for you in every passing car
[02:02.500] The night's so long
[02:07.260] Yeah the night's so long
[02:11.050] I've been living in the shadows of your song
[02:17.700] Living in the shadows of your song
[02:34.150] In the suburbs I, I learned to drive
[02:40.100] You told me we would never survive,
[02:45.660] So grab your mother's keys we leave tonight
[02:52.150] But you started a war that we can't win
[02:58.110] We keep erasing all the streets we grew up in
[03:03.760] Now the music divides us into tribes
[03:10.030] Choose your side, I'll choose my side
[03:31.220] All my old friends they don't know me now
[03:42.080] All my old friends are staring through me now
[03:52.830] All my old friends they don't know me now
[04:03.710] All my old friends they don't know me now
[04:18.950] They don't know me now
[04:25.910] All my old friends, wait
