(Riff)
Everything's coming up roses
(Riff)
Everything's coming to a bitter, bitter end
(Riff)
I'm searching for the problem, and I'm looking for a positive
(Riff)
Maybe I'll see a few old friends
(Riff)
With more faith in God, I would tell you that this was the rapture
(Riff)
And we've been left behind
(Riff)
Oh, why are we so young with tired, sunken, baggy eyes?
[Pre-Chorus]
So I'll gGive myself a name, something stBupid and pretentious
Like MaEmwce spelled with aC C
And I'llG hope all the cool kids who Bgraduated
But stayEm judgmental will finally Caccept me
[Chorus]
And I miCght be flying hoDme today, but IE'm not Dgoing hCome
'CausCe everything I thDought I knew has pEroven tDo be wrCong
And I'm Cdesperate to the point of flying sDtraight into
The over-drinking Enight that leave you feDeling torn
I'm lCeaving, I'm leavDing for NeCw York D
[Verse 2]
SGtep off the plane, hop inBto the sedan
I rEmeturn to the house, not a Ckid, not a man
Screaming "EvG*eryone hear it for the eB*ight-four five"
Where complEmacency rules and the Ckids only die
If they sGtray from the mark, if they keBep themselves clean
And they tEmore down the park, now I'm sCtuck in my dreams
[Chorus]
And I miCght be flying hoDme today, but IE'm not Dgoing hCome
'CausCe everything I thDought I knew has pEroven tDo be wrCong
And I'm Cdesperate to the point of flying sDtraight into
The over-drinking Enight that leave you feDeling torn
I'm lCeaving, I'm leavDing for NeEw York D
[Bridge]
An orGange and yellow armBada of delivEmery trucks is aCll I can see
From the wGindow of this BUber
I'm reEmminded that the worC*ld won't stop for mG*e
ButB no one ever really stops to think
I miG*ght be flying hB*ome today, but IEm*'m not going C*home
'G*Cause everything I thB*ought I knew hasEm proven to be Cwrong
[Chorus]
And I'm Cdesperate to the point of flying sDtraight into
The over-drinking Enight that leave you feDeling torn
I'm lCeaving, I'm leavDing, I'm lEmeaving Em7for New YGsus4ork
I'm leEmaving fEm7or New YorGsus4k
I'm lEmeaving fEm7or New YoGsus4rk
