Foster the People "Downtown" lyrics

Downtown

Hey turn around man I'm gonna take you downtownYou wanna grab the sac go ahead and do itMy fear and doubt is set in place by a lieI glorify you that's the only way of life yeah

I take the shake and slowly surely dissipatingYou're the wrinkles on my face, they will run my old ageI try to understand you throwing men awayAll your talent down the drain, and it just makes perfect sense

When I look you in the eyes it takes me right backYeah your future helps me move on from my dark pastDon't give in,It's not real,You don't have a choice,Choose to feel!

Your words insane that old me if I was left brainedI could understand all your phony logicI was indifferent I saw the first time come on backCome on back, Come on back, to be in your life

And then it's hard when the local keeps on movingGot some money and some change, just to wait for my train

I try to stop me now I'm locked and engagedCome on back, Come on back, Come on back and leave your pain

When I look you in the eyes it takes me right backYeah your future has me move on from my darknessDon't give inIt's not realYou don't have a choiceChoose to feel

We found you laying in your hotel roomWith your bible tied up because you were up to no goodYou started shaking, you were in your bedDoing everything we could, just hoping that your not deadWe dragged you out and threw you into our carPushed the pedal to the floor and drove to the hospital yardThey brought you in and told us both to waitI was praying to myself, it's not to late

There are consequences (for your actions)There are consequences (it's real life)There are consequences (you can't escape from them)There are consequences
