Rollerblades

(album: A World Gone By - 2021)

Tell me what was the world like for you?
I know you crash landed and barely got to look at the news

They say we used to waste our time
Stuck inside a prison that we found online
Lost in our division till the fallout
Oh, said how could I forget?

Every single day was like I'm running on rollerblades
In a dream I can't escape
I'd love if I could fly through outer space
And find somebody who relates to me
Say it's all gonna be okay while we dance our nights away

So tell me, what happened while I wasn't around?
I heard they took your cellphones and buried them all under the ground

They wanted us to fall in line
Stop trying to hurt her when the kids all cried
Screaming bloody murder till the fallout
Oh, I guess it's for the better

Every single day was like I'm running on rollerblades
In a dream I can't escape
I'd love if I could fly through outer space
And find somebody who relates to me
Say it's all gonna be okay while we dance our nights away

Ah, dance our nights away

I just hope that it's the last time
Can't get off this baby tonight
I hope they know we're on a thin line
Can't get off this baby tonight
I just hope that it's the last time
Can't get off this baby tonight
I hope they know it nearly took the whole world ending
To know we weren't doing it right

Every single day was like I'm running on rollerblades
In a dream I can't escape
I'd love if I could fly through outer space
And find somebody who relates to me
Say it's all gonna be okay while we dance our nights away
