I Don't Wanna Die In This Town

(album: Graveyard Whistling - 2017)

How did I get here?
Where was I headed?
You know, I can't recall
Where did everything go wrong?

There was a highway
Frank singing "My Way"
Or maybe it was Sid
Now I'm paying for what I did

First there was sirens
Then there was silence
And a black sky full of stars
Oh, I think we might've gone too far

Step on the gas
Get out of here
I don't wanna die in this town
Put it in the past
In the rearview mirror
I don't wanna die in this town

I'll entertain you
But I can't save you
Although I'm doing the best I can
I'm just a singer in a rock'n'roll band

You want a piece of
All that I think of
And I'm thinking how pretty you are
I'm looking for a getaway car

Step on the gas
Get out of here
I don't wanna die in this town
Put it in the past
In the rearview mirror
I don't wanna die in this town

I got nothing to lose in this town
Gonna walk up to a wide-eyed girl
Working at a counter, wasting her life
Tell her that I'm leaving tonight about midnight
You should come along, you should come along
You should come along, you should come along

Step on the gas
Get out of here
I don't wanna die in this town
Put it in the past
In the rearview mirror
I don't wanna die in this town
I don't wanna die in this town
You should come along, you should come along
You should come along, you should come along
You should come along, you should come along
You should come along, you should come along
